I received these straps about six months ago and the quality is so-so. The leather never gets very soft, it remains stiff, and doesn't feel buttery or supple like a higher quality leather. Also, if you type a lot, the metal studs that hold the band on your wrist become an annoyance as they protrude from the bottom of your wrist.
mostroI agree completely on the quality of the leather, but as for the button stud getting in the way, try wearing it close to the watch face. It leaves nothing to snag on clothing or surroundings, and I think it's an interesting way to show off the unusual fastener.
