I purchased this band about 1 week ago and it arrived on time and in good shape, I bought this band to go with a blue dial Seiko. The watch came with a 2 tone metal bracelet and I much prefer leather over the metal look. "The blue band really sets off the blue dial (which actually is so dark blue it is almost black). I like to have different style and color leather bands for all of my watches as simply by changing the band you can achieve a completely different look.

I own a few other bands by Hadley-Roma and I can vouch for their quality and beautiful appearance, Even the more inexpensive ones like this are very well made. I have an oil tanned aniline leather band from Hadley-Roma that I bought for my Hamilton Jazzmaster, and it is the nicest after market band I have purchased. I treat my bands with Bicks leather cream and it really ticks me off to see the finish on a band rub off when a good quality cream is used. I have had this happen with a couple of other brands but not this one.

I highly recommend Hadley-Roma if you are considering replacing a watch band.
