Overall I really like the style and feel to these straps. Use them in pair with a Timex Weekender and they a great/ easy way to change up the style. Material of the straps is very good, hold up to daily use, and no issues in the rain or random splashes of water. The loops have a good color tone on them... Not too glossy and not too flat. However it will spot chip if you graze or rub too hard on another surface, showing the lighter color alloy underneath.
