I purchased this for a watch that came with a leather band - the watch face was stunning, but the band was crap.  This band, however, was exactly what I needed!  It looks great and feels very sturdy.  My one word of caution though - it does not use the standard pins to resize - instead, it has these little keyed bars that connect the links - makes it a bit more tricky to size if you don't have the right tools.  Not a big issue but worth the mention.  Also, the pins that came with it to seat it against the watch's face  were too small for the width of the band, which was really strange.  Fortunately, I had picked up a 2nd band in case this one wasn't to my liking in person and that one's pins were just the right size.
