Just got a RG AWS and would really like to pick up a grey modern buckle clone. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Has anyone purchased a double tour style band for a 42mm from Lucrin yet? If so, would you please post a photo of it on you. The band on the Lucrin site looks fairly narrow which I think might be an okay look for this larger faced watch. I believe the Apple Hermes only comes in the 38 mm for the double and I can understand this if the band on the larger size watch face ends up looking "too much". This below just doesn't, but as well all know photos can be deceiving :rolleyes:

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.

Hi Jmona. I looked but didn't see who you bought these bands from & the brand. Are they better than the Moko sport bands?

Hello, I just found this thread and signed up. I'm a new Apple Sport Watch owner and I've been enjoying finding new sources for my band collection.

I got my AWS 38mm Silver for Christmas from my dad, and i've been in love with it ever since! It originally came with the Blue Sports band, so after having it on for a day, i just had to get a couple more straps for it :p


So far, i've bought all my bands from a company in the UK called CEX (Computer Exchange), they're a second hand store that sells games, consoles, DVDs and now Wearable tech for amazing prices, i bought the Milanese Loop on Boxing day, as it was the one i really wanted in the first place, it was £40 so i saved around £89 on it! (It also was in it's box and pretty much never used too ;o )

I received my most recent bands on Thursday this week, which was the Black Sports band with Space black Pin, and the Link Bracelet.
The BSB was £12 for a Grade A product and the Link Bracelet was £100 for a Grade C product (it has a few scratches on the clasp, but it's in pretty great condition though!) I'll most likely be buying a couple more Sports bands from them at some point though.
And that's why i love the Apple Watch so much, it gives you so many options and you can also put together whatever combo you want, especially with the Sports bands, so i'll be definitely looking out for the Lavender band and PRODUCT Red band next! :)

Not trying to snatch traffic or anything, but I thought some ladies might like to know that I started a fashion thread for the watch.

Saw that Pipboy watchface somewhere on the forum. Not sure why, but I think I need it after seeing this.

Hey Ladies! And Gentleman.
I'm so very sorry it feels like I have neglected the page and haven't given anyone updates. I'm in the process of moving from Colorado to Cali and I move in just a week so I have been cutting my time online to focus on the move mainly since there is a lot going on. My husband got awarded a home for his service in the Military (even though we still pay for the foreclosure price to the bank) so we had no choice but to take it and move forward and we are 5 days away from the movers arriving to pack and load and then go.

Anyhow I do miss you all, sorry I haven't been around but I promise once I'm settled in my new house I'll be back with more to get you going!

To those that have been asking for the link of the sports bands, I got them from Inkoo88's sister store (or daughter well... It's the same address so I'm guessing same seller) AND the price went down from $15 to $6.99!
Makes me wish I would've waited. LOL
Anyhow, the quality IMHO is just as good as Apple's.
The old man came to CO a couple of months ago to see the family and I showed him and he couldn't tell the difference.
If that doesn't tell you if these are good. It's literally all I wear... Okay not literally for I do skip a "Watch" day for my Rolex every now and then but, when wearing the Apple Watch I go for what is comfortable and that is the Sports Bands for me.
When I got the Links band I thought I wouldn't use anything else but honestly these are so comfortable I haven't worn the link but twice maybe since.

They are soft, sturdy and they haven't peeled on me whatsoever nor has the color change in any of them at all.
My watch is currently on the charger because I'm packing most of my sons toys at the moment, so I'm not wearing it but it's using the lavender band which is perhaps one of my favorites ever.
Here is the link. The seller has a deal for 10% OFF when you buy 2 or more so the more you buy, the more you save.
Also I'm currently working on a Review for John Sculley, Apple's Former CEO whom just founded a company with Diane his wife called Obi Worldphone so once that is done and I can give you all my undivided attention I'll be happy to be back!

Cheers and I can't wait to be back with more time and more stuff to show you!
I miss you and love you all in a non cheesy way.

Edit: forgot to mention that I have not wore a screen protector on my Apple Watch in MONTHS and have completely forgotten about the worries of getting scratches and hear hear! Not one scratch at all. I'm in a way glad that I got protectors because you never know if you'll need them but it was just too lackluster for my watch and it got annoying so I forwent then screened and the watch face is still pristine. Thought you'd want to know.

Hey! I don't think I got your email. I'm just now aware that you were in Paris when the attacks went down and I'm glad to hear that you got out unscathed! Can't even imagine everything that went down let alone knowing anyone I love being there.
Thanks so much for the email even though I didn't receive it!
Anyone that wants to reach me can do so at Jmona at me dot com though iMessage and I'll get it on my iPhone right away! That way if emails filter through spam on any of my other emails, you will reach me directly at my ME account and also we can use our watches to send animations and such. If anyone is down just message me!

Jmona, thanks for the link on the Sport Bands. I usually buy on Amazon but with your rave review & that amazing price, I'll definitely place an order. Best of luck with the move. I know how stressful & exhausting it can be!
I'm thinking of getting a rose gold cover for my 38mm SS. Anyone have a suggestion on which company makes a quality one? I'd love to hear from someone who has worn one for a while.

I'd love to see that...I actually happened to buy the hoco yellow gold cover you might see floating around on Amazon or Ebay. I'd be willing to post if somebody wants to see it.

Your links and reviews are secondary to knowing you're well.

I'm interested buying their bands solely on your recommendation as they don't have any "real" pics on eBay nor do they have great seller reviews.

Ok, here's a little proposal . . . It's "Show Off Your Collection" time!

I had to get a larger case since I've accumulated so many bands ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/Leatherette-Watch-Strap-Zipper-Case-Folio-Folder-/281813243808 ). I like it a lot, especially since it has elastic top-middle-bottom. It keeps the heavy straps from drooping in the middle & falling out. I'm courteous how much stretching it can take since it is a tight fit.

And yes, I am a metal-girl. I seem to have stuck close to those tones so that I can wear them with anything. The leather & silicone bands are on an insert I made to fit the new case.

So have at it . . . Let's see those bands!

I've been trying to find that Wonhot one. I want it BAD. Only been able to find it for 38mm:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B019RJZHB6/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new

Look at this band! Just look at it and tell me you don't like it. I DOUBLE DARE YOU!!![emoji
On another note, has anyone noticed these printed Leather Hoco Bands on eBay? I know I'm on a short leash but; I've saved the link so that I can have something festive comes Nov- Thanksgiving-December and I can order the last one (being the green and red one) but I also like the bohemian look.
