    Can Leather Link band get wet?

    As the titles says--anyone gotten one of these wet yet and did it live to fight another day? I bought one today because I started using sleep tracking recently and have found the silicone material of the standard bands uncomfortable to sleep in.

    Do the new Leather Links have weaker magnets?

    Surprisingly, but typical of Apple: Leather Link Midnight (2022, 41 mm) is almost 2 times worse magnetic than last year's black Link (2021, 40 mm). Both straps are original, but the difference in magnets is simply colossal. And in Midnight the lines with magnets look 5-10% smaller than in black.

    Apple discontinuing Leather Loop??

    I went to two different Apple Stores yesterday, and neither of them had the Leather Loop in stock (and there was no stock at surrounding stores either.) Is the Leather Loop being discontinued?

    Saddle Brown CB Falling Apart

    I've had the Saddle Brown Classic buckle since it was introduced and it quickly became my favourite watch strap. But recently it has just started falling apart. Leather is splitting and literally falling apart. I wouldn't say I'm overly rough on it, just normal everyday use. I have a sport...

    Apple Leather Band

    Has anyone bought one of these? In particular the Black or Red one? If so, do you know if they get marks on then easily? I'd hate to be wearing it daily and somehow get a scratch on it. I know it will get wear and tear, but... http://www.apple.com/shop/product/MMAN2AM/A/42mm-red-classic-buckle
