Barton Watch Brands: WatchCrunch Community Advice

I personally wanna thank @Horolawyer for the advice. I love these straps from Barton Watch Brands. They acknowledge service men & women past and present. I totally dig that. They offered an additional discount but since I am from overseas military I didn’t wanna push my luck.

Overall, these straps are amazing. Their pricing is superb and fits the budget. Their quick fix links are equally amazing. I’m so impressed they’ve matched the quality and standard of Cartier. I got these for my Cartier Tank Must XL. They fit perfectly.

I wanna acknowledge Cartier for understanding their clients. We want options. We want quick and easy. Not having to deal with tool kits just to have the look we want. Wished other brands like the watch posted here together- consider a quick fix adjust.

Super shout out to Barton Watch Brands. Outstanding job and so glad this community helped me find options within budget and adds to the story.

Another great company in my hometown of Austin, with a warehouse and office in Dallas.

I’ve bought two Barton straps. One was great. The other (a tropic I got for one of my Vostoks) was so stiff and uncomfortable that it was totally unwearable. I know they make some quality stuff, but it feels like a crapshoot.

I have 5 rubber straps and 1 suede leather from them, always great experience. I now bought them from Amazon because tax was high shipping was very long directly from them. Great straps, enjoy !

Repeat customer here. Love thier straps.

Cheers!

+1 for Barton straps. Well-built quality that upgraded the look of this old watch.

Glad you found good straps, I have a few Barton straps they’re the silicone ones with the locking loop really nice and you get two lengths in each pack which is a bonus. They are a go to brand now for me…

Did you choose the 22 or 23mm for the Must XL? I measured the lug width on mine and it was right in the middle between the two^^

it’s 23mm cos it’s lug to lug. I almost did 22mm but Barton staff kindly corrected me

I've had nothing but good experiences with Barton straps.

Good looking straps.

Have you ever tried Hirsch or RIOS1931? I wonder how they compare.

·

I bought one for my Bulova. I liked the quality but had to send mine back, as the red I ordered seemed more on the pinkish side, not the deep red that sold me in the ad. But that situation didn't put me off of the brand.

I ended up getting a bespoke Italian leather strap from a guy in Indonesia that makes 'em by hand.

Good to know! Sounds very deserving of a shout out 👏

Not a fan of their embossed leather straps, but love their Elite Silicone. Had their Tropic 1.0 which as mentioned was so stiff that it was such a pain to put on and take off. The 2.0 is much better, but should be priced $5.00 less. Love that they readily have straps in 21mm and 23mm with 2 lengths. Perhaps it's time for them to add 17mm to their stable.

Got a few, easy to buy from Amazon and one of the brands they sell that I trust. Not cheap Chinese.
