It's so refreshing to listen to a real decent gentleman talking about prestige watches after the likes of Nico, TraxNYC etc. Keep up the good work, sir.

i just wish artem offered other colors than blue and black for their omega deployant clasps.....brown and tan would be great additions.

Great video, enjoyed the run down on the different quality grades.

Another informative video. Thanks for the strap recommendations

I bought a Rolex band from Everest last year, and it's superb. It was well over $100 USD, but the curved ends by the springbars fit the watch case like a glove, and the material is both tough and comfortable. Rolex themselves couldn't have done it better.

Excellent Artem Strap review! Thanks!

I recently purchased two loopless straps for my Speedy. After a quick break in period (approx 3 hours), both feel fantastic on the wrist. Thanks for sharing.

I have the same combo for my speedy and it looks and feels fantastic. I also have a black nato from Artem for the speedy that i wear occasionally, i really love the quality of the brand and hope they start making integrated rubber straps like the one for your PO. Would love one for mye BBPro. Great video as always! Cheers!

Artem ! I like them! Thanks for that Andy!

A nice video giving options on how to present/change the look of your watch collection. I saw another of your videos a while back on the same subject. I've bought some entry level straps from Amazon of different styles like rubber and leather just to see how my watches look and I must say my Snowflake looks great on a matt leather strap it really makes the face pop.

Great video as usual and your Speedy looks so good on the new strap 👌🏻

Andy - thanks for doing this, i try find the whole process of changing straps too much hassle But i have a few from Strap Taylor hand made in the UK and happy to support an artisan

I have just bough the Tudor GMT Opaline and was looking for a strap for summer and came across your video Andy (I must have missed this one). The Artem blue strap with deployment looks just the job. I think that will be on order soon. Thanks for the video 🙏

I’ve had an Artem for about a year. And it has been on some of my toughest watches. By that, I mean NTH subs that I use in the hottest and wettest times. Think…. Fishing on the Mississippi River. Or in the Gulf of Mexico. And it looks sharp, holds up and cleans up well. Not $33 or $19.99 but draws complements and keeps on going. Got mine with QR and no pop offs.

I paired my SMP 300 with a Artem Sailcloth strap and OEM Omega deployant buckle and it looks great.

Thanks for sharing these straps with us. I have wrists that disintegrate leather so finding a quality deployant strap that doesn’t cost $600.00 (from Omega) is a excellent! Ordered one for my sandwich Speedy. 😎😉

Great way to “renew” an old favorite watch. Great presentation. I’ve been thinking about one of the white Hirsch leather/rubber straps for my speedy. Haven’t gotten up the bravery to try yet.

The Omega deployants with the hidden excess are nice but the inner strap tends to poke out the side a bit, as at 2:22. The Speedy one is tidy enough and the grey stitching matches the numbers on the tachymeter.

Great vid

I have a few straps that to be honest, I seldom use. As you say, there is something about a manufacturer (Omega) quality strap, but just could not bring myself to pay some of their after market prices, eg their NATO, although I did get the deployment for my Apollo 8, which as you say, they have you stuffed as you need to get the strap and even a different deployment clasp!!! I also like the security of a deployment, particularly when you are putting it on, but at the end of the day you have your expensive timepiece secured but a spring-bar that is made in China for pence 😱

This has been a fantastic video! I have been looking for a deployment clasp and strap for a couple of my watches and I think Artem straps will be perfect.

I personally prefer the OEM straps. They some how feel right on the watch

An informative video. Good.

Already have the Omega rubber with deployment clasp on my Aqua Terra & and more than happy with it. Am interested in the sailcloth & Bp style deployment with the double fold clasp. What is your view please Andy on this compared with the Oem Omega ? Great content as always & good to see your recovery going well.

Hi Nigel. Great channel! Does Artem make straps for larger wrists, say 8.75 inch?

Thanks for the review. I’m thinking of getting a black with grey stitch sail cloth with BP clasp but concerned that it will be too loose on my 6.5” inch wrist. I’ll reach out to Artem to confirm but wondering what your thoughts are since you said you used the last hole. Thanks in advance for any advice you have.

Can we have a video on top 10 best websites for straps/braclets in different price categories 🙏. I either find they are £6 or OEM priced. Some watches I don't mind smashing out some money on a nice new strap as long as I know its going to be quality. Others, I only want to pay £20/£30 for a swop out strap to mix things up. Cheers

That was a nice review, thanks. I was checking at Artem earlier for my recently purchased Speedy. You just helped me to look no further. If white stitch is available would you have gone for it. Speedy does come with black stitch, and to me it looks quite nice. But then Speedy being a black dial with white hands, the white-stitch would probably look just as nice. What do you think.

Do the clasps make the watch tighter with the additional material in between the strap and wrist compared to just a buckle?

I’ll buying the same deployment and the same strap for my speedy - exactly the same as yours. You just made me spend £200 thank you very much ! 😂 You have great taste. What’s the lug width again ?

What tool do you use?

Do you recommend the quick release sailcloth strap or the regular version

Will the RM style clasp allow you to use the strap if it's to big, do you need to use the last hole still ?

Just got an atrtem white stitch strap for my speedy. Looks nice enough, nice pin buckle but bit underwhelming , padding is thin .....thought it would be better for money. So so.

First... what the hell is a quid pffft lol artem never runs out of super fans so from best I can tell they make amazing sail cloth straps. I can attest they look amazing on the range of Tudor pelagos ( i)

How do Hirsch straps compare to the Atrem straps?

great product but there are inherent flaws with the materials used that people should know about. would love to see more people do long term reviews of this hyped product. mine has already started splitting apart after just over one year of use. not really acceptable for a strap costing close to 100 USD.

If only they made them in man sizes 115mm x 70 is far to small for my wrists i nee at least 120 x 80 mm

One more comment. “One size (never) fits all” You commented that that you like the Artem deployment better than the Omega deployment due to the size of the Omega being too large at times. I have a 20cm wrist. The average US surgeon wears size 7 gloves. I wear size 9! The larger opening is necessary even when adjusted to fit my wrist, to get my massive hand through the deployment clasp. The Artem is inadequate. Love the strap but the Artem single throw is inadequate. Pin buckle or butterfly for me.

I din’t understand why anybody still prefer non-keepless buckles. It looks so ugly in comparison to keepless ones.

Submariners should be worn on oyster bracelets, like God intended.

Which size of artem strap i should buy for my Rolex Sub 126610LN- it's 41 mm watch ? 20,21 or 22 mm strap?

At 10:51, what you are saying is the crap straps from Fleabay are the Lizz Truss and Braverman of watch straps. Whereas your OEM's are more Churchillian.

Ha ha...you are so funny at 14:30 .....On my Speedmaster... ... ...(professional).... None of your Swatch rubbish on here.
