MiLTAT22mm Watch Band for Seiko SKX007 SKX009 SKX173 SKX175, Super-O Solid Screw-Links

This Oyster bracelet is very well made and I'm very happy with it. I had my Seiko SKX007 on the original Seiko "Jubilee" bracelet for several years and it was extremely comfortable, due to it having 5 smaller links across (rather than the 3 larger links across that this Oyster bracelet has). This gave it a great deal of play and a loose, comfortable feeling when wearing it. This Oyster bracelet is reassuringly heavy, very nicely finished, with much less play than the Jubilee and I think much more in keeping with the chunky style of the watch (but ultimately not quite as comfortable).On the Jubilee the outer links were brushed and the 3 inner links were polished, on the Oyster all of the links are brushed (with polished outer edges, as is the clasp). Other key differences on the Oyster are: solid steel end links (vs. stamped steel), solid deployment mechanism on the clasp (vs. stamped steel), no logo on the clasp's fliplock (vs. "SEIKO" stamped on the Jubilee), 3 removable links on each side of the clasp secured with screws (vs. push pins, screws are much easier!), 3-hole micro adjustment on the clasp (vs. 5-hole on the Jubilee), the clasp is of the push-button release style (vs. clip-down).Other things to note are: two 2.5mm (larger diameter) "fat" stainless steel spring bars are included and work a treat; keep in mind when that the solid end links have no play at all so fitting is more fiddly and a spring bar tool is the right tool for the job, although you can make do without one; the bracelet gently tapers from 22mm at the ends to 18mm at the clasp as do most bracelets; the 3-hole micro adjustment allows 3mm of adjustment to the bracelet length per hole (so +0mm, +3mm, +6mm lengthening or shortening); each removable link makes 10mm of difference to the length of the bracelet; the end links are curved and mate perfectly with the watch case; being quite a solid bracelet with very little play it does occasionally tug on the odd hair now and again.To sum up, I'm very happy with the Oyster, I think it's very well made, I think it suits the SKX007 perfectly (but the trade-off is that my Jubilee bracelet is more comfortable), the price (£35) is very fair for something put together this well and I'd certainly buy another Strapcode bracelet without any hesitation.I found the full details and photos here:- http://www.strapcode.com/store/22mm-super-oyster-watch-band-seiko-diver-skx007009011-curved-p-1079.html

This is a replacement strap for my Seiko SKX 009. After over an hour trying to fit the strap to the watch I nearly gave up and thought a previous buyer review of 24th July 2019 was correct and the strap was not compatible with the SKX 009. However after a break for dinner, I gave it another shot and this time wearing gloves was more successful and fitted it in about 15 minutes. The sizing was easy. I thought the U Tube video reviewer of the Super O Boyer Bracelet of 5th January22021 was a bit over the top in using a butane torch to heat up the screws. I used a hair dryer and had no problem with the screws. I am very pleased with this watch band and have no hesitation in recommending it. Excellent quality.

This bracelet is a great upgrade over the standard jubilee bracelet fitted to the watch. It is much stiffer and feels a far more 'premium' product.It's got solid end links and machined hinge (both these are stamped on the factory bracelet), it has screw fitment on the links so it's a lot easier to remove or add links. It also has a push button released clasp, which is far more secure.It looks standard too as it has a brushed finish on top of the links and polished finish on the sides, that matches the finishes on the watch case.All in all this is a very good upgrade over the standard bracelet that fits perfectly and looks like it could have come fitted from the factory. I would recommend it to any SKX007/009/011 owners.

This watch band is PERFECT just what I was looking for at a good price to. I had previously ordered an "original" SEIKO 22mm STAINLESS STEEL JUBILEE WATCH STRAP from Fleabay and having paid £49.99 thought at that price it would be the real thing alas it was a cheap fake and I sent it back for a full credit. I was so pleased I did and got this one instead, this strap is beautifully made and was well packed, it took 2 minutes to attach and fits my Seiko dive watch perfectly makes the strap look like a fully integrated part of the watch

This is a great upgrade for the tinny jubilee bracelet that comes with skx007/009 watches. Because I like the watch a great a deal I pulled the trigger on getting this bracelet, mainly after seeing lots of good reviews. The bracelet is solid and heavy, has screws for adjusting links (a great feature) and really suits the watch, the dimensions are perfect. There's no "Seiko" branding on the clasp but I'd rather not have it than continue with the poor quality Seiko original jubilee bracelet which looks ok but feels like it's made from tin cans. A really nice bracelet here.

This strap is of an excellent quality, especially if you are upgrading from the stock Seiko jubilee band. It balances much better with the watch on the wrist and is superbly well machined, in that it matches the shape of the watch lugs to extreme precision. The solid links are fitted with miniature screws which makes sizing the bracelet easy, especially when combined with the micro-adjustments available on the clasp.The cosmetic finish is also excellent, with the links brushed on the top and bottom and polished on the edges, matching the SKX007 perfectly.However it is worth bearing in mind that the tolerances on the solid end links can be somewhat suspect - I had to return one of the bracelets as the link was a couple of millimetres off being able to sit the spring bar within its hole in the lugs. The second bracelet I received was an absolute breeze to fit in comparison - I had it installed and sized to my wrists within 15 minutes whereas I had struggled with the first one for a good hour (and stabbed myself pretty badly with an errant springbar tool) before deciding it needed to go back. If it seems like the end link is unusually difficult to fit to the watch body, save yourself the risk of damaging the watch and just exchange it!Despite this I would not hesitate to recommend this strap to others. It is of a very high quality that offers excellent value for money.
