Have you checked our nomad’s bands? They have some just like that. No lug changes needed

I’ve got a few Nomad bands - a traditional leather and a sport silicone one. Very pleased with both!

I’m new to the AW - got a S4 about 3 weeks ago. So far I’ve purchased a sports band and Milanese replica from Amazon. Both are ok. Thanks to this thread, I just ordered 7 Urvoi sport bands ( 6 reg, 1 Nike) for $18! Then I’d like to get a Hermes replica after the holidays once I figure out how to order from Taobao.

His email is posted a few pages back, I emailed him asking about the links bracelet a few days ago, but back then they were sold out, from what I've seen, a few people have placed orders by just emailing him, and paying him thru PayPal, I haven't.

Here is his email, (He speaks English): 630988@qq.com

Seems like he has been sold out of the link bracelet for a while now. (No shortage of "genuine/originals" in eBay tho...)

Glad I bought mine when I did then - it's awesome and feels much nicer than my Urvoi did, though the Urvoi is nice too. I plan to order another Hermes strap from him very soon.

I just got the URVOI 2 days ago, and I'm very happy with it, if I see the TAOBAO back in stock, I might get it too, but having this one, I'm in no rush to, heck, I would be just fine by just getting another URVOI as a back up.

Agreed, it's fine. I had a black Urvoi with my series 3. When I upgraded to an SSS S4 I needed a new band. I figured an extra £30 for the real deal was worth it, and it's definitely more solid. If we were talking significantly more I'd just have gone Urvoi again.

I love this Merino Wool strap I got off Etsy.

I would say "A better clone", after all, we are buying this things from people that sell fake rice...

Rubbish. It's well accepted that the link he was selling was genuine. Minor scratches on a link suggesting a QA fail that should have been sent for rework but made it into someone's pocket. It has everything used to verify it's genuine that no clones have. It's also likely why he only gets a handful occasionally rather than plentiful stock.

yes I also got the link bracelet plus the saddle brown classic buckle from him and it's 10000% genuine.

Anybody using paracord band which brand is compatible with series 4?

 

[shankar2]

Can anyone recommend me a good black leather band for my S4 40mm? My budget is around upto 30 dollars. Should atleast work for a year

Btw I already ordered the leather urvoi band classic buckle from aliexpress. How is it? Thanks!

 

[shankar2]

I'm looking at clockworksynergy. Anyone have prior good experience with their bands? What about the metal parts besides the leather? Adapter, buckle etc? Would they last long? thanks!

Meh. They're ok... had a few of the woven nylon bands earlier... seems like the later ones don't fit as well on the S0/S1 watch... not extremely overjoyed with them.

 

[shankar2]

So anyone have experience with the Urvoi Classic buckle band gen 2 available on Aliexpress? Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!
