Hi Ladies!
Sorry for the delay in any new posts
I got the Apple new colors for the Sports. I'm in love!
The quality is amazing for being $25, and they don't feel much different than my Apple OEM ones. Maybe a mm thinner but other than that, totally worth it. I may have to get the elusive yellow one from Moko as well. I wanted to get these out of the way first and I'm having a hard time deciding which one to attach to my AW first.
Also, I pre-ordered iPad Pro so I'm pretty stoked!!!
Here's a couple up close photos.

They look great. I'd love to see a review of your iPad Pro when you get it...obviously it will be in another thread, so if you do post a review , would you give us a link please?

Where did you get these from, Jmona? <Sending healing thoughts your way>

Here you go - it came in on Thursday so took one week. I think it actually looks better than I thought it would given how small my wrist is....my only complaint is that it's more difficult to put on but I'm sure I will get the hang of that soon. It's worth the 21 bucks I paid on eBay. I got the black one - I definitely think I will invest in the red soon.

Cheers,
Bobbie

Sorry for the delay in responding. I flew into Paris on Friday and was in the terror attack area when it went down. Finally heading back to Sweden tomorrow.

The band looks great! Thank you for sharing. Xx

I'd love to figure out how to post or link pics I could scale down here. There seems to be different ways to attach them.

So Jmona's post was massive because of all the large pics, but it was also super informative. You surely can't expect everyone to buy all the combinations before posting? I didn't see that requirement in this thread which by the way, was started by Jmona!

Maybe what you wanted was more curation or summary, and more first hand experience and reviews. I'm sure you'd find those in relevant threads.
Coming late into this discussion as I'm about to get my watch. I am thrilled with this entire thread. I am astonished at the amount of work Jmona has put into this and every post puts me into the "I want, have to have" mode. Thanks Jmona, my admiration knows no bounds. All good wishes for your healing.

Hi there - was wondering if there's any decent straps which are very similar (are they called clones and/or 1:1's?) to either the Hermes brown single tour or the saddle brown classic buckle.

I have the brown modern buckle - which is wonderful - but something a bit thicker and slightly lighter like the actual saddle brown colour would be great! On ebay and amazon, most of the straps seems to be much darker. Am I right?

I just saw this now - didn't realise this discussion was going on before, and posted a pretty insensitive question about leather bands instead earlier! - that's scary that you were around there! glad you're safe. It was horrific seeing it on tv!

Thanks girls! It still feels so surreal. To know I was only 700 meters away blows my mind :/. Glad to be home in one piece!

So glad to know you weren't directly caught up. I'm sure it still has had an impact on you all the same. Heart goes out to everyone there affected. Glad you are back home and posting.

ok ladies! this isn't a watch item.... but it relates to the watch in that you need an iphone for the watch to work.... anyways... in my latest kate spade email today they have a new purse and wristlet that charges your phone when it's in the special slot! you charge the purse by placing it on the charging plate! looks like a collaboration with a company called everpurse? or that's the name of the line? (everpurse X kate spade)
I don't care for either of the purses it's offered in and I don't carry wristlets... but if this catches on and they add it to other of their lines... I'm all in!

I love Kate Spade and saw this as well....I don't like the purses as much. I have a cute sparkly battery charger from case-mate for my iPhone. To be honest with my 6+ I never have to worry about losing juice.... If KS came out with a purse I thought was cute I would probably go for it....maybe they will add other styles soon.

Cheers,
B

I posted this on AW Band Junkies Facebook page, but thought I'd post it here too for those who don't use Facebook . . . I was perusing through Amazon and came across these cute little bands. Although I prefer the strap end to be more locked in place with a magnet or butterfly buckle, I am temped because of the variety of patterns. Has anyone bought one of these & are they quality or cheap? There are several different venders: I-drawl, Endiy & Ukase are a few I saw.

I'm reposting again a post I put out on AW Band Junkies Facebook page earlier today -

Ok, I don't have a rose gold sport watch (it's the silver aluminum version), but I couldn't resist the price & I needed something inexpensive to add to my Amazon order for free shipping.

That being said . . . It arrived in the mail today! So far I'm very impressed. It is the same width/weight as my silver Hoco band that I paid $27.99 for. What price did I pay? . . . $4.99. Yes that's right, I paid $4.99 for a stainless steel link band:
http://www.amazon.com/Rerii-Stainle...d=1448497404&sr=8-2&keywords=Rerii+watch+band

& the same vender has the silver for the same $4.99:
http://www.amazon.com/Rerii-Stainle...d=1448497927&sr=8-3&keywords=Rerii+watch+band

Granted you have to buy the adapters separately, but since I ordered them from AliExpess for $4 I'm still only out $9 for what I think is a nice band.

The adapters haven't come yet so I haven't been able to attach it to the watch. If it doesn't quite blend with my watch I will be getting a rose gold bumper to coordinate it more.

Here are my silver, gold & rose gold 5 pointer link bands for comparison:
