Review: Great-looking replacement band for the price - I got this as a replacement band for my Bulova Sutton that got ruined when I accidentally wore it into a mineral lake. Anyways, here are my thoughts on this to help you better decide if you should get this band (keep in mind these are my first impressions after trying it out for a couple hours, will update this if I have anything to add): Overall quality: - Good-Decent. Band was kinda stiff at first but it's starting to loosen up, and I expect it to loosen up even more as I continue to use it. - The leather seems okay, definitely not the real premium leather you'd find in $100+ bands. The bottom part is soft and nice but the surface feels almost paper/cardboard like? Not sure if it's a synthetic coating or what . I will say though don't let that keep you from getting it, it's not that bad (especially given the price), plus you're only really gonna be touching the bottom part which is perfectly fine. I just needed something that looks good without spending a whole lot and this works perfectly for that. - Another small thing I really like is the band loop/keepers are wide. I've had a watch band where the loops become loose and wither away and get really finicky to deal with, but I don't think that is going to happen with this one. The loops seem very sturdy. - The tang buckle also feels sturdy and good quality. Looks: - This is the main thing I like about this band, it actually looks really good and if you just saw me using it you would just think the watch came with it by default. The alligator pattern also looks great which I was hoping to match since my old band had the same pattern. - The gold tang buckle matches my gold watch perfectly, I am really glad they had that option. The stitching looks good too, very happy with the overall looks. Overall thoughts: To wrap this up in a few words, this strap checks off the main boxes. It might not be the best feeling highest quality leather, but for the price, it does its job very well. I'm satisfied with my purchase. Review: I like them. - I bought another Barton Tropic! These are great. Not expensive. Comfortable. Durable. So easy to install and remove. I have a 20mm black that I use on 3 different watches, it’s so nice to swap it around with the cool spring bars. You can get a perfect fit for you and your watch with the two lengths supplied. They look great, also. I definitely recommend them. They have a strong chemical smell initially but it goes away after about a week. ## Features - SELECT PROPER WIDTH: Compatible with any traditional or smart watch that uses 24mm spring bars. Quick release spring bars are included with and integrated into the band, so it is important that your watch's lug width matches exactly. - BARTON QUALITY: Top grain cowhide leather watch band with embossed alligator or crocodile styling. 316L surgical grade brushed steel buckle. - LUXURY STYLING: 2mm taper from watch head to buckle. 24mm strap uses 22mm buckle, 23mm strap uses 21mm buckle, 22mm strap uses 20mm buckle, 21mm strap uses 19mm buckle, 20mm uses 18mm buckle, 19mm strap uses 17mm buckle, 18mm uses 16mm buckle, and 16mm strap uses 14mm buckle.

Not the width of the strap. Watch straps can change width at different points along the strap. **Q: Is the alligator leather band susceptible to water over time or not at all???** A: It's leather. Not real alligator. So yes. Leather will deteriorate over time in water. **Q: Has anyone purchased this in smoke grey? in one photo it looks like a med. grey, in others it looks like light greyish blue. can anyone confirm color?** A: I just received my alligator grain band today and the true color is medium grey rather than the light greyish blue tint shown in the website photo. **Q: Will the 22mm alligator band fit a solar Casio 22mm watch?** A: yes ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great-looking replacement band for the price *by B***L on June 18, 2026* I got this as a replacement band for my Bulova Sutton that got ruined when I accidentally wore it into a mineral lake.

I have a 20mm black that I use on 3 different watches, it’s so nice to swap it around with the cool spring bars. You can get a perfect fit for you and your watch with the two lengths supplied. They look great, also. I definitely recommend them. They have a strong chemical smell initially but it goes away after about a week. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Deep dive good quality *by A***H on February 23, 2026* Material has a nice feel and texture leans to rubber vs plastic resiliency. It came with a long and short coupling band, so both on the arm and on the wetsuit are accommodated by the quick release spring bar. They did not include the little V notch tool to remove a previous band. I bought this at a considerable discount from the listed retail and find it to be a very good value at retail its a notch above the basement quality bands. The inside of the band has a nice raised diamond pattern that should allow moisture free movement while promoting sturdy wrist lock in grip. My application was for a Steve Zissou pattern dial Vostok Amphibia, being a 60's pattern eastern bloc design it's 18mm band is a trifle narrow for a weighty though small diameter piece. The blue colour and substantial thickness works well for this implementation and retain its potential diving utility as a tool. The buckle deserves special note its of good quality and not a ragged cheap sheet metal stamping. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/145752241-barton-tropical-style-2-0-watch-bands-quick-release-watch](https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/145752241-barton-tropical-style-2-0-watch-bands-quick-release-watch) --- *Product available on Desertcart Australia* *Store origin: AU* *Last updated: 2026-10-15*
