Just noticed that Apple has revised their Design Guide for Developers for the Watch/Band/Adapters as of 12/18/2015. Much more informative. If you are buying 3rd party bands and the classic adapter for it, you will want to give it a read so that you use the recommended threadlocker on the screws.

Here's a link: https://developer.apple.com/watch/bands/Band-Design-Guidelines-for-Apple-Watch.pdf

You will also notice that the Guide now spells out a lot like using Loctite 435 on the classic adapters and the pentalope screwdriver.

Here's a link to Loctite 435. http://www.loctite.co.uk/loctite-40...43905&msdsLanguage=EN_GB&selectedTab=document Interestingly this is a clear adhesive, not blue or red. Check out the properties of it on the main site and under the Technical Information document for cure time, etc.
