I’m looking at buying a few straps and see Barton’s are very reasonably priced well recommended here.
While I can see the benefit of the quick release mechanism for people who like to swap out straps on a regular basis, that’s not me. I’m more one to find the right strap for the watch and leave them together. It may take a few different trials and occasionally I may decide to replace a strap on a whim, but basically I leave them alone once I’ve found a pairing I like.
The quick release would therefore be a complication I don’t need, and complications tend to increase the risk of failure, so should I give Barton straps a miss look for conventional spring-bar straps, or, given the value for money and range, would you say I’m unlikely to find better straps at the price anyway?
