looks exactly like clockwork synergy's band and they sell theirs with an adapter for 40 free shipping if i remember correctly. Just got mine today but so far I love it. Itching to buy more, or at least an adapter from them as it matches well but I still have money wrapped up in click...
Got a tip for us?

When did your order from clockwork synergy ship? Mine has been in pre shipment for 3 days. Any pictures of your new band?
i ordered from them Saturday night brown leather with space gray adapter , got email says shipped got tracking , yea it know it wont acutally ship/move til tomorrow
Just got this HOCO band from Amazon today. It's much nicer than I expected and looks better in person than pictures.
Very nice. I just ordered one from Amazon I hope I ordered the same one. Which one did you order, link if you could? Thanks.
I got it from this link (http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00YMHEE4A?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00) but the seller was iVapo US. Someone else on this form got a slightly different darker version so I'm not sure if it's dependent on the seller. Mine came from China and took two weeks for delivery but it was totally worth the wait.
My bands from Clockwork Synergy arrived today. I like them both. For more info and pictures check out my post on the Great Third Party Band thread.

Awesome I ordered the exact same one and exact same seller with Amazon prime shipping. I did not want to wait 2 weeks or a month so I waited till I found a prime shipped one. So Should be here Wednesday. I will post photos when it arrives.
Some of these bands look great, I'm just not too sure about trusting my Apple Watch to some generic band adapter found on eBay.
I'll wait until the big brands come out with some stuff - Apple have a program in place for authorised lugs and stuff.

Thanks for the pics. This is the same one I ordered. Hope to get it this week! Looks nice.
I ordered bands from MakerGrafix (42mm Black with Space Black Stainless Steel lugs). The band itself was a bit stiff when it arrived, but after two days wearing it, it's become already noticeably softer. The lugs that arrived were mixed up, and they accidentally shipped Silver Stainless Steel, but once I emailed them, they replied in 20 minutes saying they can either send the correct lugs or swap out the bands. The Silver lugs that arrived fit well, snug. The best part is that it was only approximately $50.
Received my Hoco band from Amazon today. So far so good, love the band and the look. The quality seems pretty good.

Can you use the adapters for other straps? Do the adapters fit good? Do they match well?
You can, but it's probably better (and cheaper) to buy an adapter by itself. No point in risking stripping the tiny screws that are used in these things. I have dedicated adapter for each strap since it's much easier/faster to swap them out that way.
Sorry just saw your post. As nayo said I would leave those adapters alone as they come with the band and just buy new adapters. As far as the fit goes they fit pretty well and sit flush on both sides of each side of the adapter, my only complaint is that when I am sliding them in I can slide them from one end through to the other end. Another words, sometimes they don't lock right away, I have to slide them a little to the left and right until it grabs and after that the lock seems to be decent so far.
As far as the match looks good to me. The band could be a little more darker though.
If you were asking me, I purchased from Amazon from ivapo us with prime shipping. And yes it seems that it does matter what seller you choose. It seems many of us are getting different bands/adapters with each of their own issues such as color, fit, quality, etc. depending on seller.
Count me in the hoco camp (from ivapo on Amazon). Got it yesterday, very happy with it. I tried the case-mate black leather band earlier this week from best buy, it was complete crap, I returned it. The hoco band is amazing, the quality seems great for the price, we'll see how it wears over time now.
Thanks for the heads up, I cancelled... Looks like that seller no longer has Prime which is okay with me as long as it's a quality band - Is this them? http://www.amazon.com/s?marketplace...54EIUG2&merchant=A3O29G754EIUG2&redirect=true

Yes that's them. I confirmed it looks like they no longer have prime. They must of run out of product in their U.S. Warehouse.
