Customer photo review of Orca - Black & Blu

Terry V.

I never owned a NATO strap before buying this Blu Shark a few weeks back. I bought the Casio Marlin at Walmart during a close-out sale for $11. The new strap cost about $5 more than the watch, so together they were under $30. Besides the stunning good looks of the strap, it's easily the most comfortable I've worn. Value feels great, yes?

Customer photo review of 3-Ring - Bond Watch Strap

Ily R.

Overall, the bond zulu strap does what its supposed to do. It's comfortable, doesn't feel cheap and has enough holes to fit my small wrist (6.25in) unlike the kwik change strap in the middle. That's why the last two holes look a little messed up. The only bad? thing about the bond strap is that it's a lot thinner than expected. NATO's are thicker. The one to the left, the ash black with gray line nato is thicker, more to my liking, but both are good.

The Orca weave is very nice! It adds a very luxurious look and feel to budget watches and would even be great to any high end time piece. This grey looks slick with blue. Love it and I will always upgrade my bands to blushark straps!

Wonderful straps. One area where the quality could be improved is to eliminate the spring bar of the buckle and make it a single solid piece. The rest is alright.

most comfortable watch strap I've worn, i live in the dry heat so bracelets or leather can get a little sweaty. Great quality hardware, sizing holes are very sturdy and enough to find one fit for you. Very strong yet breathable material. Ordered 3 about two weeks ago and already ordered another 3, i love the style options and appreciate the experience offered as well. Thank you blushark.

Have two of these. Strap keepers have little nubs in them which lock them into place. These Straps keep my watch on my wrist all day while work and home in all wet and dry environments. Thickness tapers from 4mm to 2.6mm. Quick release, swap out with Blushark nato leather band! Lifetime warranty! Get it. Thank You

Carlos Q.

Why better than expected? Just the fact that I was able to get it under the spring-bars on this thin case shape is wonderful. The colors are spot on and vibrant. The feel silky smooth and supple. the length is perfect for my wrist. No hot-spots or rubbing from loose threads. We'll see in a year how they perform the test of time. I hope I can upload several more pictures by then.

It is as expected. Today I showered in it, swam in the lake and dried it out after. Before that I’ve been wearing it for a couple months policing my city. It doesn’t fit perfect but nothing does. I’ll buy another when it wears out.

Customer photo review of Orca - Black & Orange

Gilbert M.

Orange and black are the colors of the Philadelphia Flyers, and with Hockey back, I am sporting my orange and black Orca strap! It's easy to change back and forth between my Vintage Bond, and my "FLYERS" strap, so I can swap out the straps as the occasion requires. These straps are comfortable, breathable, water and sweat proof and easy to keep clean. The hardware, as well as the strap, are high quality.

I really like the blacked out look for this watch and strap. The hardware is high quality, the strap is sweat and water proof, and easy to keep clean. Very comfortable, breathable strap.

The colors are spot on. The feel is smooth and supple, perfectly comfortable and thin enough not to be an issue under the spring bars. no chafing hotpots or stinging from thread tips. I really hope they pass the test of time. well see in a year.

Customer photo review of Leather Kwik Change - 22mm Black Italian Calfskin Watch Band

Umar Q.

First one arrived cut around the quick release pins, I contacted Blushark customer service they shipped out a replacement right away, with return shipping label for defective strap. Quality wise very similar, and better than fossil leather strap which has one strap keeper, Blushark has two. Great customer service. Most leather straps in this price range are fake leather with plasticly rubber inside, this smells and feel and is the real leather. Lifetime warranty Get one!

Great customer service after a confusing start. Thank you for assistance with my purchase. I did buy a strap from you via Amazon and 3 straps directly from you. On your direct web site, the shopping experience promised multiple discounts but only one would apply. I put my order on hold until you helped clear up the multi-discount application towards the purchase. I would have bought your product without the multiple discounts. (gen x er, married, over 100k). Thank you again for providing a wonde...

Customer photo review of AlphaPremier - Stealth Black

Anthony L.

Very satisfied with the quality of the strap, buckle solid and nicely sized, the strap material was smooth and silky to the touch, but also super strong, very comfortable on the wrist. Also the carry pouch included was a nice suprise, great for storing my steel bracelet. Shipping to AU was slow, but no fault of BluShark, cargo worldwide is backlogged dealing with the current health crisis. Overall a perfect match with my Tudor BB.

Christian K.

The AlphaPremier is my favorite of the Blushark lineup. It is much more comfortable than the AlphaShark, and slips under tight spring bars with ease. I have been wearing it just over two weeks and have not experienced the “hole stretching” I have read about in other reviews....so far, I’m very impressed and plan on getting a few more in different styles!

I’m new to NATO straps. I did a lot of research before I bought from BluShark. I feel they’re great quality straps for the price. I’ve bought 6 so for, 20 and 22 mm so I can change up the look of several different watch’s.

This color looks great with my Seagull 1963. BluShark are the best NATO straps. I have a couple from different sellers but those are stiff and scratchy. BluShark are soft and flexible. Colors are great and fair price.

Vostock watch came with a crummy bracelet so decided to replace with nato. Actually was not sure this band color would work with red, but it does. Band is very comfortable and high quality.

David L.

AlphaPremier Bond 2021 NTTD on my Luminox Titanium SEAL: a perfect match. Stylish and serviceable, this is a great combination. BluShark should make more of these in 22mm AlphaShark pattern too. I would have preferred the slightly thicker nylon, but the Premier works well on this lightweight watch. An excellent NATO strap.

Great fit and finish. The AlphaShark Vintage Bond strap in 22 mm fits and feels as good as it looks on my Sinn U2-T. The quality is better than Crown and Buckle.

Brian F.

This strap is like it was made for the watch! Thicker than the Original series, gives the watch another feel/vibe. Buckle and hardware quality is excellent. Extremely comfortable on the wrist and not bulky.

Mark C.

I love the strap! I had a blushark strap, and I like the alpha shark strap a little better. It feels more premium on your wrist, and it is not as rough as the blushark straps. One bad thing I experienced was putting the strap on. I tried to slide it on the watch rather than removing the springs and placing the strap on. It caused the strap to get some fraying from that on the holes. So from that point of view, it doesn’t seem as strong because I did that with the blushark strap multiple times be...

After wearing this Orca strap for a week, it broke in very nicely. Now it’s very comfortable, but still feels like it would hold up to tons of abuse. I will definitely be trying out some of the other straps. Thank you BluShark.

Orca - Army Green

Eric S.

I tried the Alpha and am glad I tried the Premier; it is much more comfortable, thinner, a tighter mesh, and of a higher quality. The depiction from BluShark of the strap shows the orange stripes being much brighter and almost neon. Thankfully that is not the case; the orange is very pleasing and darker, yet vibrant and perfect. The strap overall fits my MIDO Ocean Star and matches the orange very well. I will be getting more of these, and more watches to match.

Hello! I have bought several of the alphapremier straps but this is my favourite. High quality and lasting well. I have also bought off competing brands but the round holes don’t seem to last well. These are the best I’ve found.

I am not a fan of bracelets so immediately bought a NATO for my latest watch purchase. Installation was easy and the material is very comfortable. I’ll be getting 3 more shortly!

Robert Z.

Great quality. It’s my second pajama strap from BluShark, and I’m again not disappointed. However, I was sent a 20mm instead of a 22mm like I ordered... but I made it work. I certainly will keep ordering from BluShark.

The AlphaShark in "Espresso" looks amazing on my Orient Defender 2 with the cream dial. The strap is well built with a durable buckle. It is very comfortable. I plan to add more BluShark straps to my collection.

Match this navy blue calfskin leather band for my Tudor Pelagos. Outstanding craftmanship and top notch quality material. Planning to order the 20mm red bond strap for my BB 58 and Seamaster but out of stock for now.I guess it's worth waiting.

I’m very happy with the strap! Great feel and the thickness/strength mix is great. Hardware and buckles are solid and comfortable. Don’t think I could’ve found a better match for this orange abalone dial!

I was not a fan of nylon straps until now. These are high quality and are very stylish and comfortable compared to standard bracelets. Looks great on my Revue Thommen ! Thanks!

Jeremy C.

I’ve only ever had metal or leather bands in the past, so this was a great surprise as to how much I like this strap. The latch on the original Citizen band broke, and I didn’t want to pay $150 for a Citizen replacement. I went cheap at the mall and it weighed a ton, so I stopped wearing this watch which I really like. I’m new into watch collecting, this was my first and only watch worth mentioning, but after adding a few new watches I missed this one. So after some research I found BluSha...

PERFECT vintage look and feel for a custom mod I built. Love the result. The movable inner keeper is fantastic as well. It allows for the strap to work for a variety of wrist sizes without having to trim.

Reviewer's thick Orca - Midnight Blue strap shown on a Citizen Promaster dive watch.

Marc P.

Extremely well made and something which is a plus. This is my second Orca. I've had the Alfa Premier too and I've tested them in my trips to Asia -the heat of the weather-ocean voyages /sea (salt)water swimming-typhoons-the Orca is the only Blushark NATO that DOES NOT FRAY! IF it does fray, extremely minimal if any. GREAT WITH DIVE WATCHES! Durability and Rigidness is excellent! Comfortable nice and thick excellent for my Citizen Promaster Dive Watch!

John M.

I wanted the styling of a leather strap but convenience of rubber. This strap is just that. Perfect for a field watch like my Citizen Promaster Tough. A little stiff at first but breaks in very nicely after a few weeks similar to leather. I don't see any reason to spend more. This is a quality sail cloth strap. I would like to see a brown option.

Very nice! I have had several of the original Blushark nato straps that I have worn for years. My Botanical Green original strap has been thru the ringer, including midnight patrol duty, swimming pools, camping, etc,…I just swapped it out (worn since 2/23/2021) for this new grassland camo one. Wife and I got our boys a jungle camo and blushark camo one for Christmas as well and they love them! Awesome product as always!

Yavor A.

I had an Alpha Premier NATO strap in black before. It was incredibly soft and comfortable and it’s still in excellent condition after about seven years. However, it had one design flaw: the rectangular holes were close together, and the buckle pin was wide. This combination caused the strap to stretch the holes but not tear them. Ignoring this the materials used were excellent in terms of sturdiness. I decided to pull the trigger and ordered another Alpha Premier strap and I was pleasantly surpr...

Very nice strap. Flexible right out of the box! Stitching and hardware are top notch! Would definitely buy another! No offense to the Blushark team, but my OCD made me put on a black PVD buckle. Perhaps a black buckle could be offered in the future? Still, an excellent product!!!!

I love the lime-green solid silicone band from BluShark! It feels so comfortable on. Its light and cool and it is super easy to put on. I've got the short version, and it's just perfect. The color is so fun.
