Nice! I have the naked case for my Rose gold 6S plus too. I didn't know casemate made a protector for the Apple Watch. I'm going to have to look that up
Got a tip for us?

I'm back to wearing the black sport band over the pretty red Clockwork one - less pain this week in the wrists.
BUT, I need some color - i love the feel of the Apple band - not unlike my lime green iP6 case (that my daughter just stole). Do the Moko bands feel really similar? I know they are different material, but just wasn't sure how that impacted the feel. I guess I just should order one and see for myself huh?? LOL

I'm loving your posts and excitement Ladytonya. Deja vu for me in many respects, especially with pouring through the posts. I'm kind of done for the moment buying new bands but it's fun to follow along with all the newbies to the Watch exploring the bands possibilities. I kind of feel for newbies with so many new choices to go through. Nah!
When I bought my Watch near launch, the only choices were 38mm or 42mm, silver aluminum or SS (Gold was not an option!), and a limited number of bands. Even then I stood at the Apple store taking up my appointment and part of my husband's because of indecision on my part. I did end up with the SS 42mm (still love it and absolutely no regrets) but would love to have another Watch, probably a colored aluminum because they look nice too. Hubby is one of those who thinks, so you have a Watch already and can change up bands...why would you want another one!? He also doesn't quite understand wanting different colored bands. All you need is blue jeans and a pair of good shoes and maybe some t-shirts. LOL. Been trying to work on the fashion aspect for a while now, slow go! He does like that I enjoy my Watch though.
Only caution I will throw out there for all you buying 3rd party bands, especially newbies who maybe haven't read about adapter issues, is Buyer Beware on those with 3rd party Classic adapters or bands that you install yourself on 3rd party classic adapters. There have been failures with the screws holding the curved bar to the adapter. The screws if not properly sealed with a strong thread locker can and do vibrate out of the adapter believe it or not and some people have had their bands come loose or even drop off along with their watch. There is a 3rd party "spring bar" adapter that you can install many bands on and this is an easy (and traditional) way of securing the band to the watch lugs.
Having added a few Apple Sport Bands over the past year along side a 3rd party silicone SB, I have to say I just love the Apple band on my wrist. I bought the silicone version solely for the color of it to go with a few outfits--it's kind sticky a bit and definitely attracts dust and such. I would say from a comfort standpoint, I would seriously recommend saving money up and sticking with the Apple one. In the beginning I was switching bands a lot, not so much more. Kind of has leveled off to my favorite bands and what I'm wearing most. White pretty much goes with most things and is my go to for a few days in a row. I wear black bands probably most next, and browns/red/midnight blue next. Other bands sporadically. Just a thought if you are limited in funds.
I love all of your reviews! Do you have a YouTube channel that we can follow for your reviews or do you just post them here? Thanks!
She has a YouTube! It's where I first saw her. Her YouTube is Scarlet Vikarby!

have you tried wearing your watch higher up your wrist rather than fused to your palm? it might also help with pressure because further up there'll be less flex pulling on that spot.
Thanks Tonya! I do have a channel but I see that you already found it. I have ordered some new bands that are due in the end of the week so stay tuned for some new reviews!
Thanks for your support!
Yes, I found your channel after KST87 gave me your name. The videos you have up are great, can't wait to see more! I like watching reviews before I buy something and most of the ones I find on the watch and accessories are by men. They have different opinions, especially on the accessories! LOL
I know right! I think doing the reviews is really fun. I just wing it and try to talk about the things I would want to know. Glad that you enjoy them.
HA. i'm 47 - there will be no way I can change where to wear a watch!
LOLI've been doing pretty good the last couple of days with the knock off sport band. Don't confuse that with pain free - because i'm hurting more than ever right now... but it is NOT from the watchband this time!
Now i'm just trying to find someone that might have the Orange and the Tangerine Moko bands to compare them.

I'm 46 and I just push mine a little further up my wrist so it doesn't sit right on my wrist bone and hurt, no big deal and definitely didn't have to change where to wear a watch.... I actually seem to get a better reading on the heart rate monitor and it maintains better contact with my skin. I've only had it a little over a week and I absolutely love this thing!
I've never worn a watch right on my wristbone -- I would think that would be VERY uncomfortable, not to mention getting right in the way, especially when moving the wrist and the hand! My watches have always been up my arm a bit, at least an inch away from the wrist itself.....
There is no pain on the top of my wrist - the pain is on the bottom/outside edge. I'm obviously.... fluffier than you - there is also no way it isn't hitting my skin! LOL
The Moko band has worked well - little to no pain this past week related to the watch (outside of the watch is a whole other ballgame
)I"ve never had it get in the way - it just is where I have always worn them. They feel bizarre up higher, and with my not so skinny arms I look like it is tying a sausage?
And Hi Clix - long time no see! (on my end, i've been MIA)

Nice! Loving the band.

Girl, you think you're got chunky wrists? LOL! I'm assuming that's the M/L band but you have it on the tightest hole. Mine is in the center hole so I'm about 3 or 4 holes fatter than you! You talk about looking like a sausage if it's too tight!

How cute, I love the bling!

Look again. Loosest hole.
Todays look, white ceramic band with deployant clasp and Swarovski crystal cover ...
Feeling very blingy lately

Just wanted to share one of my newest looks
Not for me. Normally I love bling, and I own so much Swarovski, you'd think I ran a store.... But that cover looks (to me, at least), like the watch has grown barnacles.
I like the strap though!
