22mm Gingerbread Brown Standard Length - BARTON Leather NATO® Style Watch Straps
Key features
- •BUY MULTIPLE: See 'Special Offers' section on this page for seller specific discounts on multi-band purchases. No need to remove spring bars to swap different color combinations in and out. Swap in seconds for a new look daily!
- •SELECT PROPER WIDTH: Available in 18mm, 20mm, 22mm & 24mm widths to fit thousands of watch models. To determine proper width for your watch, use a metric ruler to measure the lug width or the width of the current band at the point where it attaches. If your watch has an odd lug width (19mm or 21mm), we recommend going with the strap 1mm larger than measured. The material is soft and should squeeze in without an issue.
- •CLEAN DESIGN & PREMIUM STITCHING: Design implements leather loops where others typically use metal. The result is a cleaner look that is less bulky, weighs less and does not get in the way. Premium matched stitching provides the perfect finishing touch for what we believe are the best Leather NATO Style straps anywhere.
- •TOP GRAIN LEATHER & SELECT HARDWARE: Hand selected top grain leather with 316 stainless steel buckle. Thickness measures approximately 1.4mm, providing excellent durability while still being able to squeeze between the spring bar and watch head of the vast majority of timepieces.
- •LENGTH SELECTION GUIDELINES: 'Standard' length (available in 18mm, 20mm and 22mm widths) measures approximately 10-inches and fits wrists from 5" to 7 1/2" in circumference. 'Long' version (available in 20mm, 22mm and 24mm widths) measures approximately 11-inches and fits wrists from 6" to 8 1/2". Those with larger wrists (above 7 1/4") typically prefer the 'Long' version.

10", gingerbread color, with modifications
Good band for the price, improved with modifications.
This is a thinner band, but seems to be holding up ok. Paired here with a Citizen Garrison, 37mm watch, 7.25" wrist
Modifications include:
1) removed 2nd layer of material under the watch. I know this is a "nato" style strap, and the 2nd layer is a part of this style. I just didn't like the extra height it gave the overall watch. This is no fault of the band necessarily, just a style decision on my part.
-removed the 2nd fixed keeper (loop holding excess strap). I wanted a floating 2nd keeper as the fixed location of the 2nd keeper didn't allow me to tuck the excess strap.
-salvaged the keeper from the removed 2nd layer to create a floating 2nd keeper on the band itself.
-patina'd and darkened the leather. I first bent and handled the strap. I folded it over on itself, rolling it in my fingers for the length of the strap to stretch and "break" the leather surface. I then scuffed it lightly with a green scotch brite pad. I spot burnt it with a lighter, very minimally. Then applied a light coat of Mink oil for boots, and placed it in the oven (200*, 15 minutes). I did 2 total rounds of mink oil and oven treatment. The result is a deeper, richer color with more character. I can also see the patina setting in nicely in just one week of wear.
Time will tell if this band is durable enough. I am seeing additional coloring and patina set in since my original modifications, and am happy with it. Hopefully this does not mean the band and keepers will wear out quickly, but overall I think it is a good buy for the money and a good addition to my citizen.

High quality, with considerations
ONEFOURTWO✓ Verified Purchase•September 5, 2023
Although I ended up returning the strap, I echo many reviewers with the sense of high quality supple leather received.
However and similarly as other reviewers too, my reason for return was the thinness of the strap. I wouldn't go as far as to fret suddenly snapping off, but rather my disappointment was rooted in the disproportionate feel and appearance the strap had when installed on moderately sized (diameter and/or thickness) watches (>39-40mm and/or >12-13mm, respectively). Admittedly, I can understand the thinness is to also better ensure it can squeeze through the springbars of the more tightly configured connections. It's a personal feeling and preference, but also limited the strap's versatility for my collection.
If you intend to use these on small and thinner pieces, you should find good satisfaction with these.

Exceptionally comfortable. Outstanding.
