[Recommendation] I need some new watch bands (alien.top)

I have a few different watches with lug widths of 22mm, 20mm and 19mm (weird one) and want to change up some bands. I’m looking for leather, silicon, canvas and nato suggestions.

Let me know what brands you guys have liked, and also anything to stay away from. Thanks!

I like Barton for silicone.

CNS has a great selection of NATOs. I especially like their paratrooper straps

Thanks. I was looking at Barton’s but heard they have been having some QC issues lately?

Search the sub. People ask for strap recommendations every day.

To keep it in the budget realm this canvas strap might fit.

For rubber search for fkm rubber straps on the juelong store on aliexpress,those seem to be well regarded at a budget friendly price.

For the most confortable feeling strap you could try one of the elastic type straps like the swc elastic/velcro strap, paratrooper strap, Erica's original or one of the elastic straps from cnswatchbands.com (you can also find here plenty of other nato type straps, the ribbed ones seem to be popular. San Martin also have some ribbed nato straps that people seem to like).
