Seiko Rubber Watch Band Original 22mm for Divers Model

Fits big wrists. Super high quality as expected from Seiko. Love it!

Good, quality band, just like the original one. A little stiff, but become more flexible after few days of wearing. Size just right - 2mm wider than regular (most common bends or bracelets). Pretty easy to install as long as you have a little bit of patience. Comes with pins. Also came really quick (like next or second day, without "prime" shipping.

I don't do commercial diving anymore, it fit over my dry suit , but was snug. Never had any problems. works as expected.

This is a wonderful watchband. It is so adorable and it last forever.

I have owned a Seiko Divers watch for 12 years. In that time I have had to replace the band four times now. I have always purchased a band which states it is identical to the original band and costs about twice what this one does. I read the other reviews about this band and many state the bands material is not quite the same as the original band. I do agree, this material is a little harder. It also has a smaller and different buckle on it. Other than that, it looks and is the same as the original. I would recommend and buy this one again because of the price. The one thing I did do was take the buckle off of my old one and replaced it with the new one. One last note, shipping was super fast.

Both genuine Seiko watchbands arrived on time & exactly what I wanted! If you need a replacement Seiko band...this who you should get it from & the band you should purchase! I'm picky/ very selective. Ordered this same band 4 my own watch sometime last year (sorry I failed to leave high praise then). This is an excellent Seiko authentic replacement 4 Seiko driver watchbands! So when my dad needed a new Seiko replacement watchband 4 the exact same model just recently; I knew right where to go. Thanks Again! I'm very hard on my watch & watchband! Hopefully, these people will keep them in-stock. I'm a customer 4 life! Over the years, I've never seen a better replacement until now. I've also never seen any near as close to this @ watch stores, malls, etc. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0007L44EA/ref=ox_ya_os_product

As others have observed, this may be a lot of things but it is not an ORIGINAL SEIKO BAND. It also does not come in the OE packaging shown in the picture on the site but rather a real cheap plastic bag which would suggest that the supplier purchases these in bulk and then put them in the bag. All in all it's not a bad band it's just not as represented. The band is soft, flexible and comfortable to wear and since Seiko wants about $60 for the real thing this is not a bad alternative. My experience with genuine Seiko bands is that they last 1 to 2 years and then break. I also have a Citizen divers watch and that band lasted 18 years before it needed to be replaced so apparently Citizen knows something about watch bands that Seiko doesn't. This band is marked "made in China" and anyone who knows anything about history would know that the Japanese hate the Chinese and I can't imagine Seiko doing business with a Chinese company. It has something to do with World War II and some islands that the two countries are still arguing about. If you decide to purchase this band also buy the Spring Bar Tool for about $6.00 so you can change the band yourself. My local jeweler charged me $10 to change my Citizen band so this tool pays for itself in one use. You might also consider buying some beefier spring bars that are available on Amazon for a couple of bucks. The ones that come with the band are just OK but I'd prefer something a little more heavy duty as long as I'm going to the trouble of changing bands. I didn't buy the heavier spring bars and I wish that I had.

I like this strap, it looks really cool on a dive watch, I'm wearing it right now. The only cooler rubber strap is the marinemaster waffle strap, but that's a little harder to come by in this size and costs at least twice as much. This is very reasonably priced for what it is, it's comfortable and doesn't seem to attract dust. I also like the little Seiko tsunami emblem on the end. I recommend doing the thing where you put it in a mug with boiling water, it'll have a more natural curve then.
