I've noticed this EXACT same thing. I have the brown loop. I think its the notches shifting through the loop a bit. It kind of pops in a way that feels exactly like a light taptic feedback.
Got a tip for us?

Yes, I can see some people getting annoyed with this. I use prominent haptic anyway since the default haptic wasn't strong enough for me.
I'm trying to decide between the blue and the brown leather band. I wear a lot of blue at work - different shades - and wondered how well each would go together.
I love the look of the loops and will certainly look at the brown one when they start shipping out of retail stores.
I switched to the black classic on my order because a) I wanted the watch quicker and b) I figured a non black leather strap would start to show the marks quicker.
Just curious to see how the loops pan out as an all day wear though. I had aniline coloured goods from Vaja a couple of times and whilst beautiful the lighter colours suffered over time and I'm wondering about the durability of this particular one. I'm assuming fairly light leather for the flexibility and would love to see how the pockets are made for the magnets.
Close ups please?

Yes, I've been wearing it all day and haven't noticed it much. I think it's more when I walk at a brisk pace and my arms swing. I noticed it initially when walking the dog....

Here you go!
Looks very very nice! A lot better than I had imagined. And honestly I'm just happy to see more and more (although it's slow) movement as far as bands getting shipped.

So which size is this band, the smaller or larger, and how big are your wrists?
Or, better yet - do you have a sport band? If so, which size and which hole do you wear that band on?
I wear the large sport band and I'm in the exact middle(4th) hole.

I see you answered as I was typing

Very beautiful, don't regret my decision to get this now. But please tell me, when you compare the prominent haptic feedback with the 'magnet slips' as you described before, can you tell the difference? Is the latter a deal breaker in your opinion? Thanks!
Mine is stuck at the local UPS depot. It was scheduled to be delivered today. I decided I would just pick it up from the depot as it's just a ten minute walk from work. Two days ago I used my UPS My Choice account to choose pick up at the depot. Today I go to pick it up and I'm told it's already out for delivery. Then when I check later I find out the UPS delivery guy didn't even try to deliver it. It may have been because they contacted him to tell him I had requested a depot pickup. Anyway now I have to wait until Monday to pick it up. I'm really annoyed with UPS.
I think the large would suit you better. It looks super spiffy wrapped around a bit more, plus it means you can take the watch off and on without unlooping it all the way. Also, a bit more peace of mind in case it comes un-magnetized.
Yep, that's how I liked it when I tested the large on my 187mm wrist.
Yes you can see it does in my pic I posted.

Around 202mm or whatever 8 inches is.
