What a waste of time and money! Almost a month to receive but for $119.00 the stitching is all angled, in no way is this hand stitched. Every stitch hole is angled and the band looks nothing like the website pictures. I paid an extra $8.00 for some fancy Irish thread and it’s as all crooked. I simply attached the bands and tried it on and the leather is all bent and already disfigured from the buckle. I truly would have been better off and saved a lot of money had I just purchased a band on eBay or Walmart. Buyer beware. Then the seller responds to my concern in a condescending and belligerent statement that he used a “French Stitch” and that I don’t know the difference between his quality work and Walmart. The issue is that as the customer I paid for what was advertised, described and pictured and not what the seller decided to substitute without my permission then to argue and insult me. But should I have read his reviews I would have refrained from doing business with him in the first place.

Quality Product, Love the fact it’s made in America. Just be prepared… It takes 3 weeks to month before you receive the product. It’s worth the wait…

The leather strap is awesome! Very thick yet pliable and reeks of quality. I would definitely come back here when looking for straps in the future.

Love this new watchband from Jack Foster! Beautiful quality!!!

This is a beautiful strap on my Panerai. It’s thick, chunky, and comfortable on the wrist. The stitching is gorgeous. It’s obvious this is handmade by a true craftsman. I’ll be tempted to try a couple belts from Jack. Turn time was around 5 weeks which is impressive for post holidays and a hand crafted piece
John B.
Very good quality leather. The strap is thick. It can support even a heavier watch. Beautiful brown color.

Qulity maiterials. Strap arived shorter than specifed. I can only get to the first hole in the clasp to short for my wrist.
Scott F.
Perfect fit and awesome quality. Love it.

Jack-Foster has done it again. This is the second horween leather strap I’ve bought from them. This strap is super comfortable for all day wear, and very durable. Thanks again Jack-Foster.

I’ve tried 2 separate bands for my garmin watch, both metal bands. Neither lasted long because of connecting pin failures. I wouldn’t say I’m extremely hard on a band but I do test them at work, play, etc.
Leather is extremely durable, whether it’s a phone case, boots, motorcycle chaps, the list is lengthy. So why not a watch band? So far so good, it seems very durable and is doing its job like intended.

Great Quality! Looks amazing with my Seiko Alpinist. Couldn’t be happier!
Gerald L.
I love the quality
Simon D.
Robust, well constructed, comfortable and good looking. Perfect, thanks!

I had excellent communication with Christopher because I needed a larger size strap for my wrist, which was no problem for them to create. The strap has a much better feel & quality to it than the cheap Amazon one I had previously. Make the smart move and order with Jack Foster and the good folks of South Carolina!
Neil M.
Exceptionally well made.
Matthew W.
Love the size of the brass buckle - matches my brass diver perfectly.
Robert R.
I should have ordered the longer strap. But, I like it.

Customer service was the best. I wanted to modify my original order and it was all taken care of in the matter of hours. Shipment was fast and the quality of the leather is way better than leather straps I’ve had in the past. The buckle and hardware or nicely brushed with no sharp corners to bite when being worn. The strap is just a really well made product that kind of took a simple field watch and dressed it up slightly.
Michael
Very, very well made and the best customer service. Let me modify my order on the fly and had the strap at my house in about a week from the time I placed my order.

I took a chance buying a leather strap for my Hamilton Murph. So glad I did. This leather band by Jack Foster is exactly what I was looking for. Leather is a perfect color and thick but supple. It will only get better as it ages. Can’t wait to see the patina set it!
Paul B.
Great quality of leather. fits well. will order again.
JOHN K.
This band is beautiful and made with high quality materials. I love a thick leather band. However, the band is so thick at the wrapped around end where spring bars insert, that I can’t fit it to any of my watches so the spring bar can align with the holes in the lugs. In other words, the thickness pushes out the spring bar beyond where it could insert into the lug holes. This makes the band unable for me to use at all. Perhaps for the future you could skive down the thickness of the band enough at that loop so it can fit watches but not so much that it risks the strength of the band st the spring bars.

This strap fits my Hamilton Murph great!! Great quality leather, the right thickness. Love it a lot and is exactly the look I was going for with it!
Christopher L.
I already sent an email with my disappointment. I really wanted to love the strap but it doesn't look great. The leather is great. The stitching is a bit wonky, kind of zig zags and looks a bit sloppy. The holes are the biggest problem. The holes don't run down the center of the strap and the spacing is inconsistent. Even the size of the actual holes are different sizes. Because the holes are not in the center, the tang connects at and angle and doesn't sit on the groove where it is supposed to. I sent photos when I initially received the strap and was told they would send a new one. If I receive a new one, I will re-review but right now, I can't wear the strap.
Kirk W.
The watch strap I was looking for. Robust and matches the vintage feel of my black bay.
Steven G.
I was pleasantly surprised to find my watch strap matches my Allen Edmonds belt perfectly. But the watch strap is almost double the thickness. Jack Foster leather is thick and beefy.
Wayne R.
Great materials and craftsmanship. Very comfortable.
Kurt S.
Perfect for my omega railmaster. Other leather straps that I have are too thin and dressy for a tool watch. Just what I was looking for.
Thomas W.
Best made heavy duty straps I’ve ever worn. Period. Built as a functional tool with enough “style” for the daily desk rider. Only leather straps I wear. Worth every penny.
Ronald C.
The band looks and feels great. I'm sure I will order another.
Richard M.
This is my second purchase from Jack Foster. As usual, exceptional quality.
Thomas W.
Best heavy duty watch strap you can buy. Period. I don’t like steel on wrist. Leather man here or the occasional NATO. These are built like a strap ought be. Superb quality leather. Thick and bombproof. Made in America. I’ll be back for another as my old Seiko needs a little flourish. Thank you for an outstanding product. And one heck of a useable tool.
Andrew B.
Nice quality leather and craftsmanship, however the strap is just way too thick to be practical or comfortable. It was so thick, it wouldn't even work with my OEM Omega buckle.
If the strap was maybe 2/3 as thick, it would be much more wearable.
John R.
Excellent product! The leather quality, fit, and feel exceeded my expectations. Bravo!
Harold F.
Very nice watchband . This is the second one I have bought from you. Great quality and great workmanship.
Thomas
Superb quality leather, built for a days work. Thick, lovely stitching. Best straps I’ve found. Worth every penny and made here in the good old USA. Need to order another in fact for my old Hamilton. Tired of junk straps? Here is the solution. Built the way straps should be made.
