    After a chunky, thicker style mens band/case for Ultra Series

    Hey forum fam. I'm looking for a mens band / case that is on the thicker / chunkier side. I have relatively normal sized wrists, but prefer a thicker style. I've found Amband's range to be awesome, but they don't have stainless steel or anything for the Ultra series...

    I have an older Apple Watch (series 5 aluminum) and I was looking at purchasing a new band. Does anyone know if I can try on different bands before purchasing them via an Apple Watch try on reservation at my local Apple Store? I was hoping my local store had the $350 steel link bracelet to try...

    Nomad Titanium Band

    Finally got my Nomad Titanium band (ordered in Dec, arrived mar 23) and I feel like this cannot be the same version that was originally reviewed. The pins holding the band together are not consistent and some have fallen out on their own and others nearly impossible to remove for adjustment. The...

    Alpine Loop Titanium Burned Mark

    I noticed this burnt-like looking mark on my Alpine Loop after I washed it in Oxyclean. Maybe it is just coincidence and I got the mark somewhere else. I don’t smoke or use lighters. Also, no grilling or any other open flame. Anyone has any idea how would this be possible. Photo below.

    Did I get a Solo Loop that is too small?

    When I used the sizing guide for the Solo Loop on the Apple site, it said I was somewhere between a size 7 and an 8 so I went with the 7. This is a picture of my wrist after wearing the watch overnight. I wouldn’t say it’s uncomfortable. Does your watch band do this? I’m hesitant to buy the size...

    Hey, I have this sport band that came with my series 7 45mm. I wear it on hole #4 (The arrow shown on the photo), Going down to hole #3 for a tighter fit.

    Urvoi vs the rest of AliExpress

    Was curious if you are a long time purchaser at the Urvoi store on Ali Express and what this store happens to do better than the other stores? The prevailing theory is that all the AliExpress shops get their materials from the same 2-3 places and ships them out under different names. What...

    Leather link 3rd party bands?

    I'm looking for a knock-off 3rd party apple leather link band (preferably brown or black). I only found one on amazon but there are under 15 ratings so I'm not sure to trust those. And I don't want to get another Leather Loop type band, as I've had 3 of them. Those are good for about 3-6...

    Braided solo loop stretched too much?

    My size 6 braided solo loop is now almost 3mm longer then my size 7 rubber one. Is this acceptable or can I request a new one from Apple since the watch is way to loose now?. Or is there something I can do to shrink the band?.

    MagSafe - What to buy...

    So I received an Apple gift card about a month or 2 ago and bought a saddle brown leather case for my 12 Pro.

    Thick 3rd party strap like Nike Sport Band Black?

    Recently purchased a Nike+ Apple Watch S4 but wanted the Silver Aluminium casing, so the only option was the Platinum band. Would’ve preferred a Black strap. I’ve purchased a 3rd party band (ATUP), but the silicone is extremely thin compared to the official bands and feels somewhat flimsy...

    Is it worth it?

    I have the nectarine sport band and I put my eye on the new red sport loop but also on the nectarine sport loop, however I don’t know if it’s worth having another nectarine band if I already own the sport band, but do you see too much difference to justify having both or should I better go for...

    Where to find SS Gold Series 4 Band Connector?

    Hey everyone! I was wondering if anyone had a place to get a band connector for the new SS Gold watch? I previously had one so I could put my own third party leather bands onto a silver stainless. With the new gold, Apple has not released any official classic bands with matching gold...

    Most comfortable bands

    So I got my first Apple Watch yesterday (S3 non LTE silver aluminium, 38mm). I don't care much for the grey sports band it came with and bought a berry stripe nylon band. That band is quite stiff and my skin is rather sensitive (the pressure of the watch itself is also something I'll really...
