It works. Its durable. Easy install. I also like the fact that the band itself has a quick release spring to be able to easily swap bands for different colors, if that's your thing.

Item arrived with many different parts and no instructions. Parts in box were cheap junk and some were broken. Even a jeweler could not get the band to fit the watch.

This kit includes everything you need to install the included 22mm black stainless steel bracelet on a Casio 5610 or similar GSHOCK that uses 16mm lugs.In the box you'll find two plastic 16 to 22 mm adapters. These are identical to adapters you can find on Amazon or included with other watch straps. My watch actually already had a set installed but I swapped them out just to see if there was a difference. Nope, they might have come from the same molds.You'll also find the stainless bracelet, a pair of spring bars with the little handles on the side to make them easier to install/remove, and a couple of tools for installing and resizing the band.Installation of the 16mm adapters onto the watch is a pain. Getting the old strap off is a pain. This has been true for every Casio 16mm lug watch I've ever put adapters on, and I've done a few at this point. Getting the band off and the adapters on is way fussier than it should be because of how Casio designed the watch.FYI:Hold the watch in your left (non-dominant) hand with the back facing you and the strap part you are removing running parallel to your first two fingers. Use your thumb to hold the watch in place, and your finger tips to put some pressure on the strap. Then use the forked end of the spring bar tool in your dominant hand to claw the spring bar into retracting enough that the strap moves slightly and the spring bar is no longer aligned with the holes. It isn't easy the first time but it can be done.Then, when installing the adapter, hold the watch case the same way, put the spring bar in the adapter, get one end of the spring bar onto the lug and the other end pushing up against the lug, then use the round end of the spring bar tool to compress the spring bar until the adapter can move deeper between the lugs. Then wiggle it around until both ends click. Give it some tugs to make sure both ends are engaged.The first time I did that (putting a NATO adapter on one of these watches) it took me half an hour. The last time, it took me under 30 seconds. It's just a pain, but it's not a pain caused by the folks selling this bracelet.One you get the adapters into place, the hard part is over. Kinda. I feel bad about mentioning this, but the second worst part of installing this band was the protective film they used to protect both the 22mm spring bars in shipping. This is a super heavy plastic wrap that sticks together and in theory you just peel it back but I wound up having to cut the spring bars out and it was just way harder than anyone would guess. I feel bad mentioning it because they were trying to do a good job of protecting the parts but especially on the spring bars it was actually a big source of frustration. They used the same film to protect the bracelet and it did a really good job.One of the spring bars did a pretty good job of staying in place in the bracelet, but the other easily falls out. That doesn't matter when it's all connected but the point of those easy spring bars it to make it so you can swap bands on a whim. It would be nice if there was better retention of the spring bars, or at least if both bars went out the same side of the bracelet so you could use gravity. But that's a minor quibble.Once the bracelet was clipped in place, I tried the watch on. It was just a little bit loose so I used the included pin pusher tool to remove one link from the bracelet. At that point, the fit was a lot better. I have larger than average wrists but if you have really big wrists this bracelet may not be big enough for you. Note that it's still larger than the standard strap that comes with a 5610 or the like, so if your watch fits you with the resin band it'll almost certainly fit you with this.I like the look, and it feels both comfortable and nicely weighty. No hair pulling so far. The bracelet has a double-fold closure with a safety toggle. To open, you flip the toggle out of the way and squeeze the sides of the clasp to unlatch it. At that point it folds open. To close you fold it up and press until the clasp engages, then fold the little safety catch into place.Since it is completely new right now it has a very sharp shiny black look that goes great with my black 5610. My hope is that the black finish will develop a nice patina, with shiny corners as the strap is worn.For $25 I think this is a really nice bracelet and adapters set with honestly more tools included than they needed to. Installation is not as easy as I would like but it is exactly the same for ANY replacement band on the Casio 16mm watches. As a bonus, this converts your GSHOCK to use standard 22mm spring bars meaning you can use basically any 22mm band or bracelet going forward. Popping off the bracelet takes about 5 seconds, and I was able to switch the watch over to a NATO strap in under a minute. The flexibility to use whatever kind of band you want is really nice. Going back to this stainless steel band after trying a different band on took under 20 seconds and that was just because the spring bars want to fall out. Find a way of trapping them in place and this would be a real quick change bracelet.
