Update: Clockwork Synergy leather band is still very 'hard', but, I'm wearing it daily and always bend it a little before putting it on.
I also noticed the way it fits my wrist (because it is so hard to get it into the 4th hole) it tilts to the left a bit on my wrist. And, due to this, I miss notifications (since I don't feel it).
So, I'm certainly looking forward to the day it can rest flat on my wrist, and connect in the fourth hole on the band (and hopefully not be too tight)...

If they had this band without the very odd looking large holes, I'd be all over it.

Looks kind of safari type of strap. I actually like it quite a lot

Have had this one for a long time. Quality is good but does get scratches, but still looks good
Really good actually. Took a day or so to get used to it, but now it's very comfortable.
Did yours arrive? Thoughts?
What adapters are those and what width strap do they support?

I bought one of these for my series 0 last year but it wasn't comfy at all. It scratches where the fabric is folded over and sewn together.

I haven't tried it on yet. I just got my Red band last week, and thus that one is still breaking in, thus haven't put the green on yet.
But, the red fits well NOW, just have to break it in. I'm sure it will be the same for the green one...

That is something they need to fix. On their Amazon store they have a lot of them posted. Seems the Rally Leather are almost consistently:
- Length: 120mm/75mm ( 7.677″ )

So. So what band is that. What company makes it when you bought it. Where did you buy it.
Thank m8

Except we're talking about a link bracelet and there are several versions. I wanted a link to the one he was happy with.
I quite like the Apple leather straps, but I'm disappointed that they're not wider and chunkier. Not to the point of being a cuff, but just a bit wider which would give it a different look again.
Does anybody have good recommendations for a nice brown leather chunky strap?
As for cuffs, I do like this one but it's out of stock https://www.jack-foster.com/collect...f-strap-in-horween-dark-cognac-dublin-leather

I've finally put my green Clock Work Synergy band on...
I love the band and watch face! What's the face called (forgive me, as I literally just took the thing out of the box an hour ago)? The subtle Green on Green is nice

I put mine on today as well, very tight leather. Will take a couple weeks to break in and soften.
