Get that alligator strap look without actual alligator deaths.

Alligator leather is admittedly badass looking. Unfortunately, wearing it means that gators have to die, which is disagreeable — gators should be free to roam Florida in search of unsuspecting, wayward Disney World-attending tourists. Luckily, you can get that cool gator look without incurring any gator deaths on your conscience with Barton Watch Bands new Alligator Grain Leather series straps!

Barton makes one of our favorite dive straps, but they also make canvas, leather and other types of watch bands. What they have in common regardless of material is that they’re all well-built, they feature quick-release spring bars, and they’re affordable. The new Alligator Grain series comes in six colors, five hardware choices, three widths, and features a 2mm taper. The straps crafted from top-grain bovine leather and are then embossed with the alligator texture, so if you want that gator look, you finally have an affordable, quick-changing option.
