Ladies Only Thread... Accessories and more

[Cubbiemolly]

Hi all,

I have viewed every post in this thread and love them all! What great ladies sharing all their wonderful finds. I just picked up my brand new watch yesterday and so happy with it. I had already bought a couple of bands in anticipation. I have also ordered two off eBay. The obsession begins! This is the sparkly jelly band I bought at BestBuy. Reminds me of the eighties.

Thanks for the welcome B! I just ordered another band set. Lol. The Hoco 3-in-1 cuff, double tour and single tour in blue. They look so nice in the pics on here. If I like them, I may order the black and brown sets too!

Thank you for the link! This is what I've been waiting for. Well, this and a hot pink leather loop. Hehe!

I'm very happy with this new strap from BandMax on Amazon. The magnets are stronger than other 38MM Leather Loop knocks offs I've gotten off of Amazon. (Please note I did have to trim it I have a tiny wrist). I'm going to order the cameo band today too. Here's the link - https://www.amazon.com/Bandmax-Porc...73785047&sr=8-1&keywords=bandmax+leather+loop

Here the Griffin double tour band I bought while visiting Michigan. Bought it at Best Buy. I love the band but really don't like the gold hardware. I can live with it....not OCD about this but I may change it at some point. I will see how comfortable it is to wear for a bit first. Did I mention how much in love with my watch I am? It's so funny though, I got this new Apple Watch yesterday and then we went to the Swatch store as my daughter wanted an analogue watch (she's 17). Too funny. She loves her new Swatch watch though.

I understand where you're coming from on the gold hardware. However, it does sort of match the stitching on the band.

Which model Watch is that?

Afctee, it is the new series 1 aluminum space gray. I bought the series 1 because I don't need gps or total waterproofing ( didn't swim once this summer). I did want the new processor though so I bought this one. It was also even cheaper than the sports series 0 when it came out. It does everything I need it to and it looks great! I think.

More bands from Amazon. I am very happy with them! The navy modern buckle is quite classy looking.

Today felt like a rainbow Milanese kind of day.

I've been looking at the modern buckles - is it good quality?? Looks nice in the pic - just curious about quality

New to this thread and loving it, has gotten me into a band buying frenzy, I will post pics when they all arrive, it takes a little longer for them to arrive into Australia.

I had a RG sport original series AW (which my daughter now has) and now have a Gold S2 Alum, funny thing is I wasn't too fussed with different bands until now.

I really like that band I think I'll need to grab one of those as well.

I'll be interested to hear if it's comfortable or not, I like the look of the double tour bands but worry that they might feel too bulky.

I don't mind the double tour. You just have to figure out the most comfortable fit for yourself. Some people like the extra band above the watch and some like it below. It does attract attention though!

Good to hear, I might give one a try.
[doublepost=1475813988][/doublepost]I've got a few bands now, most of which arrived this week so I haven't tired them all yet.
I have 4 Apple sport bands, Lavender (which came with my series 0), Concrete (which came with my series 2), White and Cocoa (which I picked up today). I prefer the Apple ones for sport bands as they feel much nicer to me. I also have 3 leather loop knockoffs, red, black & white and a navy one on the way and two Milanese loop knockoffs in gold and multicolour.

Right now I'm wearing my leopard print leather loop. (Thanks whoever it was who recommended it!) (EDIT - @batristain ) I'm now waiting for a wooden band to arrive. I still like the leather and milanese loops the best. I did try a double tour, but couldn't get used to how it felt, and it constantly slipped below the watch, breaking skin contact.

Will post once the wood one arrives.

 

[Mac2me]

I just picked up the Apple Cocoa sport band today too. Wanted something that can get wet, be cleaned easily and would fit in with fall. I have a few brown leather 3rd-party bands and consider this sport band a staple.

Thanks - the leopard print is the last one I don't have from them - plan to order that this week

Ladies! This thread seems to have gone dormant in October. Nobody has gotten anything new and exciting in all that time???

I really want something new and different. The wood band I ordered never showed up. I may try again, but if any of you have had any luck, please let us know.

How about some turquoise beads? Got this on Amazon with a Christmas gift card

Pretty! Does it hold tight enough? Are the beads comfortable?

I absolutely love the cocoa band with my rose gold watch.! Such a pretty combination!!!

It's tight, the bands are hand made and you order by your wrist size, my wrist is 7 1/2 inches and I ordered a size 7 so it would be snug. I haven't worn it a lot because it's a different looking band, more for specific occasions I think lol

Wow! Glad I found this thread....I'm seeing some beautiful watch bands! I have been collecting a few bands myself. I have a few apple sport bans and a couple of 3rd party sport bands (moko). Love all the new looks you can get changing the bands and faces! Yesterday I received a brown leather band. The quality is fantastic and I will be getting another at some point!I received my Form Function Form leather watchband. https://formfunctionform.com/product/button-stud-apple-watch-band/

Love that they size off an Apple Sport band. A beautiful product and a custom fit for my tiny wrist. Super fast delivery...I ordered Friday and received it yesterday, Florida to California. Definitely my favorite their party band!! I will be ordering from them again. Quality product!

Hello,
I am just joining this thread. I have a rose gold Apple watch and am colorblind. Would love to hear what color bands do you think look good with the rose gold. I have a Milanese loop and the blue and pink nylon band already. I am looking for a rose gold stainless bracelet that looks like the Apple link bracelet. Does anyone know of a band manufacturer that makes one in a 38 mm?

Thank you!!

Navy blue and cocoa sport bands. Definitely two of my favorites. I also have the blue with pink nylon band (with the blue edges) that came with the watch (so it has the rose gold hardware).

Light gray sport band.

Of course there's always white, too! And it goes without saying that the pink sport bands look good! As would the other pink and blue nylon band (the one with the pink edges)
