This band is good quality. It's held up well after over a year with no fraying (although it's not one I wear on a daily basis. It looks good and the seatbelt material is comfortable. Absolutely no fraying at the strap end or around the holes. Worth the extra money compared to cheaper bands. The buckle and hardware are also of a better quality than the inexpensive NATO bandsI really like the pale blue color of the band as well as the nylon material that keeps its shape and feels strong without binding the wrist. Also, I never buy leather if I can help it, so I appreciate the nylon material.The biggest drawback for me, because of my relatively small wrist, is that the band is too long and I have to double the end back through the two bars.Otherwise, very good watchband.Arrived a bit early with spare spring bars and a spring bar tool.This is a quality watchband. I have a small wrist so it is kind of big, but it is a well made product with sturdy hardware.I'm fully satisfied with the purchase. Good product and accurate descriptions.I wanted to like the BluShark nato straps, but I honestly would not recommend them.My original one (on the left) started fraying at the end, so I contacted them since apparently they have a lifetime warranty. They mailed me another (on the right), but I noticed immediately it was much cheaper quality. I didn't even have the replacement for a month before the end looked like THAT.I contacted them again telling them that the replacement frayed as well, but they declined to send another.I take great care of all my watches and my straps, but I cannot attest to the quality of BluShark. Maybe their more expensive line of nato's hold up better?Also, here is the warranty from their website:"We're so confident in the quality of our nylon straps that we're willing to stand behind it for the life of the product. If a buckle breaks or the nylon frays or a bolt of lighting should happen to strike it, we will exchange your strap for a brand new one whether it's a year from now or ten years from now. All you have to do is send us a note and any kind of proof of purchase (e.g. an order number or email confirmation) and we'll send you a new strap in the same color and size of your old one. If we don't have an identical one in stock, you'll be able to choose your preferred style. The lifetime guarantee applies to all BluShark nylon watch straps. The guarantee does not cover normal wear (e.g. fraying after extended use). "That last of their warranty gets me - if you want to stand behind your product and offer a warranty, why include the last part that excludes fraying?Good looking color match for my watch. Sturdy nylon construction, nice metal buckle and strap retainers. Easy to install, and fun to wear. This is an excellent replacement for the original band. I will buy again.
