Super comfortable and perfect XL length. Looks and feels fantastic. This XL band was purchased as a replacement for a Citizen BL5403-03X watch which had a regular length band. I bought the 22mm brown alligator XL variety. The color is professionally applied, matching the Citizen band almost perfectly in color, grain and quality. The stitching is very nice too. The band thickness is two-fold; thicker at the wrist area and thinner where it tapers. I was able to swap the silver buckle hardware with the gold Citizen branded hardware, as it also tapers to a 20mm buckle. My only issue was the buckle tang on this band is a bit wider than the Citizen. Aalthough I was able to easily fit the Citizen buckle hardware onto this band, the opposite was not true. Not without cutting out a notch in the end piece of the Citizen band, of which I chose not to do. The leather is medium-soft; nice and comfortable. From my own experience, it appears to me that this band will easily break-in very nicely.
