Frequently Asked Questions
The Ribbed Mako FN watch strap is designed to comfortably fit wrist sizes from 6.25" to 9.75". Fit may vary depending on how tight or loose you prefer to wear your strap and the size of your watch. For wrists between 6.25" and 8.5", there will be enough length to tuck the strap under both keepers. For wrists above 8.5", the strap will stay secure under the keepers, but won’t have extra length for tucking.
Note: Fraying may occur over time due to the nature of the material. Fraying can easily be removed with the light passing of a flame. Read more about this in our blog.

Ribbed Mako FN Band - For Apple Watch ULTRA - Black, Tan & Red
The strap is thinner than I expected, but it is light, strong, and very comfortable to wear; I am satisfied and will be ordering additional colors.

Olive & Red combines rugged, military-inspired style with the comfort and versatility of a two-piece design. Crafted from durable, breathable 1.3mm ribbed nylon with brushed stainless steel hardware and heat-sealed oval holes, it features a unique third faux keeper for a classic NATO look without the added bulk beneath the watch case. It offers an easy, tool-free installation thanks to built-in 1.8mm quick-release spring bars, fits wrist sizes from 6.25" to 9.75"

Excellent quality. Very comfortable. Very happy with the product.

Your tolerances are off. I have many straps from Barton and others that are sold as 22mm bands that work perfectly. Your watches, despite being sold and marketed as 22mm bands were too small and did not grab as brands from other competitors do. In effect, they are unusable to me.

Great strap, it’s longer than I thought but it’s also because of the lug to lug. Overall great strap, and will definitely buy different colors for other watches

I was looking for the perfect nato strap for my vintage Glycine Airman. I wasn't sure what style/colors would look best, so I bought a few. Some from BluShark, some from other companies. The idea was to rotate the straps, but once this one got on, it never came off. It feels amazing on my wrist, the perfect tension with just slight give for maximum comfort and stability. And it looks amazing.

Spring bar has spontaneously failed twice. In just over a week of use. Unacceptable.
Nicholas L. 1/5 Verified
Store owner replied: Hey Nicholas, That's definitely not supposed to be happening! Please do respond so we can get this figured out for you ASAP. This could be a faulty spring bar, but from the photo, it looks like the strap might not be fitting properly between your watch lugs, which is a bigger concern. Either way, we can get you a replacement strap or help find a size that fits your watch better. Just let us know, and we'll get this taken care of for you!
Great strap quality, reasonable prices, and super-fast shipping. I will be back. Thanks!

Great looking watch strap. Using on my Tissot Seastar 1000. The colors are great. The quick connect is great because it keeps the profile of the watch closer to my wrist. I would recommend.
Mark L. 5/5 Verified
Really happy with the two-piece Mako strap. It’s comfortable, well made, and most importantly, it works well on a sub-7-inch wrist. The watch sits flat and centered on the wrist without the extra bulk you can get from a traditional nato strap.
Andrew C. 5/5 Verified
Strap is a bit thin to support a heavy watch. The contort is a 7 out of 10. The hardware, color and look is spot on!

I had just recently bought a new Certina 40.5 DS Action Diver and had ordered the 2 part Nato strap and loved that one. After seeing how great it looked, I wanted to try the Single Pass Nato on my Citizen Diver, and I love it. The original 2 piece wouldn't fit my Citizen but I loved the look so much I went with the Single pass and it fits and feels incredible. I have purchased multiple bands from BluShark and you can't beat the quality and finish, not to mention the great discounts they offer. I am a true fan of BluShark!

This is now my go to brand for watch bands! Super good quality! Fast shipping. I love the easy to install and remove bars that are included with the bands. 100 percent recommend!
