Wondered if anyone might be able to recommend a black metal band for the Series 5 SBSS 44mm. Looking at something for times other than the gym.

TIA!! :)

What’s your budget? The Milanese Loop is a good option at $99. Just be careful with it because the DLC finish is capable of scratching the screen and the back of the watch if the band comes into contact with it. Your only other option from Apple is the Link Bracelet, which is significantly more expensive. There are, of course, many cheaper 3rd party options. Just be aware that most use lower quality coatings for their black finish and tend to show wear more quickly than the Apple bands.

I was actually thinking of the link bracelet, but it would be hard to justify for sure. I do, however, like the looks of it quite a bit.

The other one I see pop up on reviews is the Nomad Ti bracelet. It looks decent enough as well and seems to get high praise.

Saw another from Bullstrap I think it was. Couldn’t find a review of that one though.
