I will say first that the quality of the leather and the appearance are really good. The band just looks very good and feels solid...however, it is tapered a bit too much, particularly down near the buckle, on the side with the holes, moreso than it appears in the photograph. It's 22mm but the taper doesn't really go well with most watches that require a 22mm strap. If that isn't a concern for you, then you'll be happy enough with the great oil-tanned leather, which is high quality.
