this band seems quite sturdy & well made (so far, so good). i'd have given it 5/5 stars but found the length of the band itself quite short & i have a medium-to-smallish sized man's wrist. if your wrist is beefier, this band will provide little (if any) left over material to "tuck in"; at comfortable tightness, the band has just barely enough to secure properly. otherwise, it's a great band w/ sleek styling & hefty, thick rubber.
