    Is it normal for the sport loop to get narrower towards the ends?

    I know this is my OCD kicking in, but I wanted to ask if it is normal for the band to get slightly narrower at the end. It was quite hard to get off again the first time after putting it on the watch and I‘m afraid I might have damaged sth.

    Silicon Solo Loop tearing

    Has anyone else had a silicon Solo Loop that tore like this? I’m not sure if I accidentally did something to cause this tear or this is natural. I’ve only had this for 4.5 months. I’m mostly wondering because I don’t want to buy another one and have this happen again. Despite this, I’ve found...

    Braided Solo Loop Fit

    Hi, I just received my first ever Braided Solo Loop, I tried the Solo loop on in store and did the sizing (ordered 1 size down), well I received my solo loop, attached it to my AW and it feels a little loose, not super tight, but it's not falling off my wrist, compared when I tried it on in...

    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...

    Solo bands size question

    Does anything changed in regards to Apples Solo bands size guide on the website and the size itself since the initial launch? Is it still advice to pick one size lower than the one from measuring guide (like with the AW6 release a lot of people had to)? especially that AW 7/8 is longer by 1mm...

    Apple playing with colours for AW and bands, making grayscale colours extinct

    I do not care having a wide range of colour availability and it is great. However, they MUST KEEP GRAYSCALE COLOURS available for any of their product lineup no matter what. In current AW lineup for aluminum, they went with midnight blue ( it looks almost black in person which is good, but...

    Torn Apple Watch solo loop band

    Mine broke after 9 months of regular use (off/on once a day to charge), and AppleCare refused to care. I get that it’s a physical part that will get daily wear and tear, but Apple sport bands I’ve had in the past at least offer a couple years of use before the glue holding the metal nub gives...

    Solo Loop Size 1 is too Large. Is there an XS 3rd party Solo Loop?

    I bought my wife the 40mm Apple Watch Series 6 with the Solo Loop - Size 1 but it is a little too loose. Is there a third party Solo Loop that I can purchase that would be smaller? I tried to search on Amazon but have not found it.

    Goldilocks wrists - neither one size or the other - depending on time of day

    I got my first AW recently, which I absolutely *love*. In fact, I keep meaning to post some pics of it but I'm distracted too easily. Anyway, one surprising and niggly issue - with my body more than with the watch tbh - is that my wrists swell more than I ever realised... My previous watch was...

    Prosser claims Ill-fitting solo loops/braided loops can be returned independently from watch!

    Earlier today in a tweet, Prosser stated Series 6 and SE owners can now return the solo loops and braided solo loops independently from the watch, so you no longer need to return the entire bundle. Here’s the fun part- If it’s your first Apple Watch order, because these bands are in short...

    Anyone tried/have photo of AW3 with braided Solo Loop?

    Ordered 44mm AW6, Solo Loop too loose, have option to gift it to 42mm AW3 user and order smaller size instead of returning the whole thing and waiting till mid November. Any photos would be much appreciated.

    Beware Acrobat for Printing Solo Loop Measurement Sheet

    Apple’s new Solo Loop is the obvious choice for many placing preorders. Was that credit card size confirmation on the sizing sheet on day 1? I don’t recall seeing it then. In any event, printing the sizing sheet from Safari or Preview gives you the correct dimensions. But when printing from...
