Hi Alli
There seems to be an issue with the Golden colour '4' (thin reddish lines in discription).
All should be good unless its this colour.
I have three band colours now, but if you picked '4' maybe worth confirming its goldern with red thread as in discription.
Cheers

I (naturally) went with pink. Just can't help myself.

I know this thread is about the watch bands, but has anyone found a replica of Apple's charging dock for the watch? I love the look of it, but similarly to their watch bands, I find it pretty overpriced.

Amazon special :)

Was $25!

Apple Watch Band Series 1 Series 2, MoKo Stainless Steel Replacement Smart Watch Band Wrist Strap Bracelet with Butterfly Buckle Clasp for 42mm Apple Watch All Models - Space GRAY(Not Fit iWatch 38mm) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JP6FU78/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_.jDKyb74KZR4K

I ordered this from your link and pic a couple days ago and just received it... wow! This IS A REALLY NICE BAND! I also have a 38mm SBSS with the original Apple link and all I can say is that this one is 98% close to the original. In fact, I like the continuous link look of the way the latch works better than the Apple band. The weight is very solid, easy to adjust and it looks great with my SBSS 42mm. The color is sort of between Space Black and Space Gray so it should look equally nice on either one.

Thanks for the post that prompted me to order one!

I was just thinking to order the 5th Gen Link bracelet when I saw this one:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/6th-Gen-Lin...ch-Strap-42MM-Series-1-Series-2-/232142574530

Apparently there's a 6th Gen now... Does anyone know the differences with the 5th Gen? Did someone order it? If it's better I think I'd go for the 6th Gen as there's only a $10 difference.

Thanks!

Ask the seller what the difference is. Maybe it's the total lack of any gaps? Who knows, but the stock photos look good

The item is waiting for me at the post office but there's a problem.
Because it appears to come from China I suddenly have to pay extra costs for customs.
There wasn't anything mentioned on the item page that that might occur.
The seller doesn't seem to be willing to help me out with that.
Now I don't really know what to do with it.

Hi Guys!

Just received the 6th Gen Link Bracelet!
Here's the unboxing video!


_DSC0802.jpg _DSC0800-2.jpg _DSC0801-2.jpg

First impression is very good!
Still a bit of space between the links near the watch but nothing out of the ordinary.

Price was $59,99 on eBay.

PS: For those who should ask: No I'm not gorilla. :D

Okay - I bought mine off Amazon. Don't recall the ad saying what gen it was. The clasp sticks on one side and it can be quite difficult to open. After contacting the seller, they are sending me a new clasp from China. Otherwise, the band is quite nice.

I just checked again and OULUOQI don't state the gen. Interesting.
