While not a sports band, has anyone ordered any of http://www.fashioncopilot.com?redeem=NTY2MWM2YzgwMTgzNjgwMzAwZDVlOTk2
I just ordered this one, will report in when I get it.

Certainly different, that is for sure. Nice to be different though.
 
The URVOI I got was very good. No seam or overhang. However, I prefer the thickness and stiffness of my original sport band. Are there any 3rd party ones that are as thick as the original? It seems like everyone with a 3rd party sport band comments that it's slightly thinner and /or softer.
 
The Ice Sport band I just purchased from Strapped & Co is nearly identical to the Apple version but at a much more reasonable cost.
The look and feel of the band is surprisingly good, and the fit is almost exactly like Apple's. The only difference that I have found so far is that it is slightly thinner and lighter than the OEM band (as others have said), but I think that is a good thing rather than causing it to suffer a hit to it's quality of look or feel. The band fits into the ports perfectly, has no overhang, and seems to be attached strongly just as you would expect from the first party band.
I am hoping to continue to expand my band collection with more third party bands, and as far as the sport ones go, you can't find much better than these from Strapped & Co.

it looks pretty on its own, but in the real world does it look much different to the OEM white one?

I do not own a white one, but I have seen them and my brother has one for his Apple Watch, and I would say they are easily discernible. Honestly I think that it looks more like the white band in the pictures, than in real life. It truly is unique...in my opinion of course.
