Apple Watch Band Upgraded

[Whtchdr]

I was able to follow the directions posted on YouTube by Unbox Therapy to switch out my Classic Buckle leather band to a nice 22mm solid link stainless steel band. Apple asks $449 for theirs. I picked up this one from Amazon along with the screwdriver for only $80. Turned out pretty good I think!

Ha! Well done!

I just watched the video and it seems pretty straight forward. Thanks!

Nice job! I assume we could use something like Click to accomplish the same thing.

 

[CrackerJackToy]

Very nice. I am actually impressed by this. I think I will do the same although I wouldn't mind exploring more stainless bands as I already have a Tissot with a similar style.

 

[techno-Zen]

Nice!

What size is your watch 38mm??

Does 22mm work for both 38mm and 42mm?

 

[Whtchdr]

Nice!



What size is your watch 38mm??

This looks better than Click does though... Wish Click wasnt so clunky.

I guess apple will offer this soon, just the 'adapter'.

That looks awesome, nice job man.

Looks better then the Casio band Apple is selling.

 

[dacreativeguy]

Turned out pretty good I think!

Really? That band looks like hell compared to the Apple link band. Why would you want to make your $700 Apple watch look like a POS Pebble Steel.

In order for this to work you need to start with the Apple watch with leather band but can I now buy the leather band and use this method?

 

[roland.g]

I saw that same band and wanted to do the same thing but was worried it wouldn't look good on the leather band adapter rods. I really don't think in my opinion that it looks good. Not to mention a 42 mm SS with Classic is $700 plus $80 for the setup you have is $780 vs $1,000 for the Apple Link. Not enough savings to warrant it when it doesn't look that good to me. But I'm glad someone else did it as I would have wanted to and I don't think it does.

That looks great! Can somebody send that pic to Angela so that Apple can offer something like this to us? I love the band!

 

[JT2002TJ]

Looks great.

I ordered this band, and got it in yesterday. I like the look:

I also ordered this band (just for the adapter), it should be here today:

Anyone think this will be a good stainless steel link band?

It is from china, but it looks good and is a whole lot cheaper than Apples band.
