I bought my Citizen watch with a canvas watchband. I liked the original band but it wore out in 2 years. I replaced the original band with this 1 inch wide Timex black nylon mesh band. It has a 1 inch wide by 1.5 inch long Velcro attachment system that keeps the watch secure and in a constant position on my wrist. The fit is very comfortable, and I do not take the watch off except to shower. The watch is secured in a double strap arrangement in which the top strap loops through the two watch pins and the back of the watch is against the main strap. This makes the back of the watch free from sweat. I like it better than the original band.
