It's an Apple product. Purchased at the Apple Store. The green iPhone case was a case that Apple was selling when the iPhone 6 came out. I bought it on the iPhone 6 launch date when I got the iPhone 6. Once the iPhone 6S came out, the color was discontinued.

Dang! That's the best green I've ever seen for a case. And it goes so well with the green band on the watch. I'd love one on my 6s Plus.

Pics? Red on red has to be slick.
 
I got the black and silver HyperLink, and I'll probably never even open the silver at this point.

I am at 3 bands now. I have this one, the Apple Leather Loop, and the Sport band.

Still waiting for Apple to make a Space Gray Milanese Loop. :(

Same here, so I picked up one from Amazon.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016JWO0HQ?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s01

Read every review (ok most) on all the black Milanese loop bands listed on Amazon, this one by "Riega" seemed to have the best overall reviews. Got it today and put it on my new SG Sport Watch. So far it looks great and that magnet... super strong.

Also picked up a NewTrent TPU case, kinda big with the smaller band now.. still may keep it on for protection.

My green iPhone case arrived today. Very disappointing. Totally disappointing in fact. But for $8 all the way from China I had low expectations. And those low expectations were almost met, but not quite. First, it doesn't fit properly. This case isn't deep enough to grab the top edges of the iPhone like Apple's silicone cases do. It's a design ripoff of Apple's silicone cases but it's clearly not made of silicone. Not even rubberized plastic. More like a regular plastic/cardboard hybrid material. Probably carcinogenic too, but that's just a guess. The green color is way lighter than the picture indicated. Somewhere in between the green in my avatar at left and a pale yellow. The kind of color you'd get if you left it on the windowsill in the sun for a year. Last time I had the flu things came out of me that were this color. I really can't get too disappointed because I had a suspicion that I was getting genuine crap when I ordered it. So in the bin it goes, and my search for a true green silicone case continues.

I got it last week. They came with a small screw driver. Kind of hard to unscrew to install the watch band but I did it!!

Nomad. Liking it. Hoping it wears in nicely.

....I recently bought this one as well - hasn't arrived yet though. Nomad had it on sale for $104 over the Black Friday weekend, so took the plunge!!!

Not sure I like the light brown colour as shown in these pics but am hoping the leather will darken over time!

:)
 
Gott my 5th band last week, the midnight blue. Looks great with jeans and my work uniform. Other bands include the Black (Which came with the watch); Green, Product(RED), and Walnut.

How are you finding the magnet on this?

I have a HoKo black Milanese loop band, and the magnet slips over the course of the day, where I find myself needing to readjust the tension so the band isn't too loose. Do you find yourself doing that with this band?
Click to expand...
Every once in a while, it's not bad really. I don't think that it's getting "loose" I think i'm catching it on my shirt/coat/whatever and it loosens a little. Not so much that I feel the watch is coming off..
I don't wear the watch tight anyway, so maybe a little slack helps lessen the chance of it catching on something.

Overall i'm happy with the band.
Grabbing the watch off the stand in the morning to put it on.. the magnet tends to be a PITA to undo so I can put it on my wrist.

The band wads up and the magnet will attract multiple layers of the band, when you put it on your wrist it can be a pain to get the magnet detached enough with one hand to tighten it up, end up having to hold the watch against my body to try and get my fingernails in the little slit to detach the magnet

After playing with the real Milinese loop from Apple, I'd say this magnet is about the same strength.

Holding the watch by the band and the magnet can hold the weight of the watch and attract 3 layers of the band on each side.. (I have real bad lighting where i'm at, so had to hold it against the white wall for contrast)
