Excellent quality for the price.  The perforations allow air flow to your wrist and improve comfort -- now my wrist doesn't sweat underneath this band.  It looks great.  The brushed stainless steel buckle matches the brushed look of my watch case.  The blue stitching also complements my blue watch face.  So far this is holding up extremely well to use -- no stretching, cracking, etc., of the leather.
