All MoKo bands except the green one. :)
What's your take on their sports band. As you posted right below mine, I only own the red one. I find the pin/hole setup of the MoKo band (at least my red one) to be such that when I'm putting it on, the pin can pop out if I'm not careful. I've not seen a situation where it will do that while wearing the band, but I was surprised that I pushed the pin through through the hole and I was putting the loose strap through the slit and boom it popped off. I can easily repeat that.

The thinness of the band compared to apple's is also something I'm noticing.
 
Got my bands from Amazon, here's the red MoKo sports band,

Seems softer then the apple band, and maybe a bit thinner, but at 15 bucks vs. 50. I'm happy with it. I may mix/match it with my green band for Christmas :)

I've been looking for a nice red strap to go with my SGS (same as yours) and that looks like it may well fit the bill.

£10 (about $15) delivered tomorrow via Amazon Prime.

Thanks.
 
Her's the Moko Milanese loop brand. Overall the magnet which I was concerned about, seems sufficiently strong. The quality is good, and overall I'm happy with the band. Given the premium pricing of the Apple Milanese watch 150 vs. 33 for the MoKo and the fact that Apple doesn't offer a black version, I'm quite happy.

I'm going to amend my post, I am actually finding the magnet a bit weak as compared to what I expect it to be. Its good enough, but I find the band loosening as the day wears on. Not by much but its noticeable and so to me, that tells me the magnet is slipping a bit
 
I don't have an Apple Watch yet (planning on getting one before Christmas) but have been following this thread for a few weeks to see what kind of straps people are going for!

I'm looking at getting a leather one for when I purchase my watch! Was looking at some from Clockwork Synergy but have also come across this one :

I've gotta say that this just looks awesome!!!its pretty pricey but must admit, it's the best leather one I have seen for the Apple Watch - especially the one for the Space Grey watch.

What do people think?!!

Overall, am quite pleased with the MoKo bands. My only complaint is the noticeable seem along its side.
