I've been scrolling through the different threads and haven't come across any bands that go well with the lighter APW except the black leather loop that drew me in however it is just a tad to expensive for me at the minute. I'm not sure whether i will stick with the lighter one or grab the SG again in couple weeks time. Can anyone post any suggestions , photos will be a bonus.


I've also come across 3rd party leather loop bands that look identical to the genuine ones , are they any good or am i risking my watch falling off?

Thanks guys

The AWS with Black band doesn't look too bad.

I've got the black sport band at the minute with it. somehow looks cheap from distance, not sure whether its the silver casing..

I have a 42SS with Sport band and wife has a 38mm AWS with white and black sport bands. It looks good on her wrist but I prefer the shiny metal as my other watch is an Omega. Not used to the silver color of the sport.

I agree the contrast doesn't look great. I ordered a few different cases in different colours but black on the black sports band is the only thing that worked!

Different strokes for different folks. I don't have the black sports band but I do have the classic buckle and I think it looks great with my silver sports watch.

The Milanese loop also looks great with the silver sports watch.

I also have the white and pink sports band but I imagine any of the sports bands look nice with it.

I've seen some nice pictures of the leather loop with the silver sports watch too.
