Wondering if I might ask if anyone is wearing an Apple Watch Series 7 with the Apple Link Bracelet? Was curious if the fit was good and if there were any issues anyone is (or has) experienced?

Thanks for any insights!! ?

I've never heard any complaints with the fitment to the watch (at $450 I wouldn't expect anything less). As far as fitment to one's wrist, I'd suppose it depends on if your wrist falls between two link sizes as half links aren't available. In that case you'd have to decide if you like it a bit loose or a bit snug..

Thank you.

I have had my finger on the buy button for some time now. Went down to an apple store close to me to check it out, but they didn’t have one in stock to show.
 
Links were easy to remove and came with everything to do it on your own. So far, it is wearing really well! It isn’t too heavy! SO recommending..!

Appreciate you sharing that with me! ?

I just have to bite the bullet and pick one up!
 
It fits great. But the SS Series 7 is the heaviest apple watch ever made and the link bracelet is among the heaviest bands. Together it’s noticeable. You might want to test it at the Apple Store before you buy.

I have 3 link bracelets, but only a series 6.
However one link bracelet had its butterfly clasp break along with the connectors to the links. I received no support from the service center here for it.
However, this happened after a wash in the laundry. It was put in the wash >50 times but the last time broke it. The other two are so far fine, and are as old as the series 6 is.

Interesting. So you‘ve been washing your link bracelets in the laundry machine with your clothes?

No clothes just the link bracelet and braided loop + sport loop. After the incident, link bracelet gets washed by hand. I am planning to buy an ultrasonic cleaner for the same

You put the link bracelet by itself in a washing machine? And you’re surprised it broke? Did you think a small metal object banging around inside a metal cylinder would be a good thing?

I was about to say you can get a decent ultrasonic cleaner on Amazon for around $30-$40... They work really well for watch bracelets, internal mechanical watch parts and jewelry

This is my first ‘plain’ SS Watch and strap, previously had Space Black versions Which also looked fantastic in my opinion.

IMHO it looks best on Titanium. Side question, anyone else have more links on one side than the other? I have them like this so that the buckle sits flush with the bottom of wrist. Its a great band though!
