I don't understand any criticism of this watch band.  It's intended to comply with military regs.

Army regs state that a soldier may wear a wristwatch unless prohibited by the commander.  All jewlelry must be conservative and in good taste.  The USMC states the wristwatch must be "inconspicuous".  Other regulations require the watch to be "anti-reflective".  When I was in the military, the commander of almost every duty station required the watch to be completely covered using this specific strap (but in OD).

There are two pieces of nylon.  One goes around your wrist, and the other is attached to the first strap and covers your watch.

It ain't fancy, but it works. It also will protect your valued possession from damage and scratches on the crystal.  My watch never came off in any environment, wet or dry.
