Do you happen to have an Apple sport loop to compare it to? Would be curious if it's like mine that's relatively wide, or like @bruinsrme 's band who's happened to be more narrow.

No I sure don’t my friend. That’s sort of the reason I went with the knock off instead of the Apple brand. After spending $100 on two Nike bands I just couldn’t see myself spending another $50 on a watch band so I gambled and it paid off.

Ah, no worries. Does the band seem to fit the full width of the lugs (provided you picked up a 42mm)?

Also, side question: If that's you in the avatar, where are you stationed? I flew for 14 years.

I actually have the 38mm (yea only guy with a 38mm I know lol) since I have small wrist. I mean I didn’t really notice a space between lugs. Tomorrow is my Nike band day, but maybe I will switch it up and take a pic and post here.

Side question answer: Yes that me in my avatar, stationed in Texas. Thank you for your service by the way!! Also what aircraft did you fly?

Lol. Don't feel bad, My 42mm screen nearly reaches both sides of my wrist.

And thank YOU, for continuing to serve. I was on the KC-10. Big ol' flying gas station.

Here is my knock off I got from amazon. Like I said the gap or what not really is not an issue for me.
