I gave up on leather watch straps for my seiko spirit, even high quality German offerings because they rot. I now use (shock, horror) expanding straps. They have all the benefits of metal and leather straps without the disadvantages. They last forever. Perfect fit, so comfortable you forget you are wearing a watch, doesn’t rot like leather, easy to clean, water resilient, and adjusts itself to the wrist. Not everyone’s cup of tea, but ideal for the job in my opinion.
Hirsch makes quality straps for sure. I would like to say to always use the backside of the lugs to press the springbars in though. This way you keep the lugs undamaged on the upside of the watch. Just my opinion. Enjoy the strap. Looks good.
I have the sarb035 and have bought a few Hirsch Duke straps in different colours (burgundy, brown and black). They really suit the watch and make it even more versatile (I also have a couple of Eulit Perlon straps and love the bracelet. Such a great watch
Nice watch and your watch strap looks really nice on this particular watch. I like Hirsch watch straps and have presently got two of them on an Orient watch and also on a Seiko 5. They are good quality watch straps and wear well.
How your hirsch buffalo going on? How many years or months it stayed good. How does it feel , did it get patina over time. How many years or months it can last!

Wait, am I missing something? I'm new to watches and idk why you said you were ashamed to wear a/or the metal band. I bought a Seiko Cocktail Time and I actually quite like the metal band.
Bracelet looks way better imo. You're swapping a quality bracelet for a €30 strap? I'd go for a proper croc strap if I were going to replace a good bracelet.
Hello sir, glad you liked my video. And congrats on your Sarb033. I believe you will love the strap. The watch box was a gift from my mother. She bought it here in The Netherlands in my favorite department store (they only ship domestically). She knows my love for watches and gadgets. The brand of the watch box is Golden Head. www.amazon.co.uk/Golden-Head-Colorado-Watches-Leather/dp/B00PW7YAE8

Thanks for this recommendation. Do you mind to share some brands and models? I would like to look into this and learn something new!

Thanks for your advice!
Yes I agree. Take care of your watches.
Got this strap today. Very high quality and works perfectly with the SARB.
I totally agree!

Gadgets for Gentlemen thanks! 👍
Totally agree. I have the dark brown on my SARB033 and the gold brown on my SARB035 which look even better.
I have the sarb035 and have bought a few Hirsch Duke straps in different colours (burgundy, brown and black). They really suit the watch and make it even more versatile (I also have a couple of Eulit Perlon straps and love the bracelet.
Such a great watch
I love burgundy. The Sarb035 is fantastic. Enjoy it 😁
Damn nice . I love both the watches on those straps.
Thank you sir!
That seagull is a winner
thank you for the video, I will probably buy this exact strap for my SARB033
Thank you! I think you cannot go wrong with this watch strap. Enjoy!
Hirsch is an Austrian company. They produce quality straps from various types of leathers.
Greg Alonzo thanks for your comment!
the Firenze gray strap ...from Colareb ..i think ..the best ..
Colareb is a great company 😁
I have their Venezia Tobacco Brown leather strap for my Seiko Sarb017
The perfect little man watch. You are only 3 holes into that strap man. If you are a size Small / Medium shirt size man this watch is perfection.
I have the one you showed at 5:30 I think it’s a brilliant strap and wear it everyday. Also thanks for the video 🤗
Thank you so much! 😁
Nice strap. Looking to buy one for my Seiko black dial.
I subscribed your channel.
Thank you and welcome to the channel 😁
Looks so much more interesting on the strap than on the bracelet.
Thanks for your comment! I agree. Although the original steel bracelet is not bad 😁
Nice watch and your watch strap looks really nice on this particular watch. I like Hirsch watch straps and have presently got two of them on an Orient watch and also on a Seiko 5. They are good quality watch straps and wear well.
Thank you sir. Definitely loves these Hirsch and Colareb straps 😁 The Seiko Sarb033 is one of my favorite affordable watches 👌🏻

I have it safely stored 😇
I don’t wear it that often: too many watches and straps in the collection 😲
Could you give me a link to your watch box. I really like yours.

What is your wrist size measurement?
6.3 inches
Wait, am I missing something? I'm new to watches and idk why you said you were ashamed to wear a/or the metal band.
I bought a Seiko Cocktail Time and I actually quite like the metal band.
I think the leather strap dresses up the watch 😁
Will this fit on sarb035?
Yes.
I was going to get a SARB033 but ended up getting an Aqua Terra 41mm. Might still get one for the wifee as it's more of a girls watch.
Aqua Terra is a big step up :)
this is an austrian company, not Germany.....from Klagenfurt in Carinthia...! greets BM
Thanks for your feedback 😁
your right ! ..great leather strap ! ....for this beauty ! ...maybey ?..the.... nr 1 wacth ! )
But ...
Bracelet looks way better imo.
You're swapping a quality bracelet for a €30 strap? I'd go for a proper croc strap if I were going to replace a good bracelet.
nice strap... is the stitching white or grey :)
I agree! 😄
Stitching is light grey. No doubt about it.
Love the look... just too small and dainty. Could be a great ladies watch.
I have ladies size wrists, so perfect dress watch for me 😁
Ps they also do a slightly bigger version: www.shoppinginjapan.net/sdgm003
Yo thanks so much this size is perfect also the SARX size.
Sounds like your large watches are compensating for something
رائع !
Looks great, thanks for sharing!
How did you choose between the Forest and the Highland for this watch?
Thanks for your comment. I have them both 😁 Either way. You cannot go wrong.
Love strap
Hello mate. Where did you get that box for your watches. It looks really cool. 👍🏻 I also ordered the same strap for my Sarb033. Thanks for the review
Hello sir, glad you liked my video. And congrats on your Sarb033. I believe you will love the strap.

Hirsch means 'deer'
I use to buy Hirsh until I find Wocci, better and less expensive.
Hi there, those Wocci straps look nice. Will try them out someday.
favorite shop in the netherlands... bijenkorf?? really?
Yes 😂
@@GadgetsforGentlemen waar ze DW en MK horloges verkopen? Oh en kleren voor mocro's enzo!
Bijenkorf verkoopt ook Frederique Constant en Hamilton 😉
@@GadgetsforGentlemen je zegt FC, ...... maar komaan mk en dw horlogess..... laten we het hierbij laten!
Looks more dressy....
er kan een verlenger voor de bracelet worden gebruikt www.monsterwatches.nl/product/sarb033/
Hartelijk dank voor de tip!
nice vid! i love my sarb033 as well. fyi, "genuine leather" is the lowest grade of leather there is. many are fooled by this
No way! I didn’t know that. I should look into it 😁
