2.0 out of 5 stars Not worth it, April 19, 2009

Had this strap for a year and, without all that much rough wear, it broke in two places. First, the small piece/loop that is intended to hold the "extra" strap to the band tore off. I kept wearing it using a doubled-over loop of duct tape to keep the strap tame, but before long the entire strap tore at one of the holes in the band. Not to mention it didn't stay orange for very long since the orange just collects dirt and turns much of it black/brown after a few months. Unless you're intending to only wear your Core around the house and never actually use it for what it's intended for, get a more durable strap. I gave it two stars instead of one because it was actually quite comfortable.

I got this band for my Core All Black, and so far so good. I made one change and took the piece from my black band to hold down the extra strap length and swapped it out with the orange one. You can see this in my photo. Very comfortable.

2.0 out of 5 stars Stains easily and is impossible to clean, January 15, 2012

Let me start by saying that I wasn't sure if I would really like the orange color of the band, but it really grew on me quickly. Also, it is comfortable, easy to adjust, and intelligently designed so that it doesn't come loose. It stays in place very well unlike some other watch bands I have experienced over the years.

Here is the downside for me--as mentioned by another reviewer--the band develops dark stains from very normal use. It seems to leech dye out of clothing and anything it comes in contact with. It doesn't just get dirty, mind you, it gets stained. At first I thought I would be able to scrub it clean and bring it back to new... not the case. If you don't mind a grungy looking watch band then go for it. Otherwise, save your money and go for a darker color instead, or one of the ballistic nylon NATO bands (which are cheap, virtually indestructible, and VERY EASILY swapped out in about 10 secs... You could potentially have one for each outfit if you were so inclined.)
