First one I've seen that says grey instead of black.
There's also these but you have to buy the whole band to get the adapter.

This....
I found a nice 24mm band I liked and it was cheep...so I bought.
Then read the update from Click that they will have 22mm adapters. Aghhh...
So now, I don't want to buy any more bands till I get adapters in hand for size.
Thinking about grabbing one of these. The seller states that they are 25cm long which is 9.84" or 250mm, long enough to fit my huge wrist!
Anyone grabbed one of these yet to see? If so, is that the actual length?

Pretty sure sits the same seller I bought from. I put the pin in the longest possible hole and it only measured 19cm. And they require an adapter so it doesn't have the same look! Oh and they're smaller than 20mm width wise. Hope that answers your questions!

Grey strap adapters: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/311354245605
Will post pictures once I've received everything!

There's no way that's going to last, especially on something with moving parts like that. It's already peeling off.
Be wary of all of these. They all seem to be using the same adapters as the ones we've seen all over these boards up until now. There's nothing wrong with these adapters of course, but they're not aluminum and almost certainly won't match the space gray.
