Thanks WitchallsMedia. You're the man!

So do you have multiple adapters, or are you taking apart the adapters to switch bands everytime?

Multiple adaptors :)

Got one more strap to come from China, a nylon one with metal eyelets. I'll mainly just be using black leather though I think.

So how many adapters do you have total? Did they get them all from the same place? Or did you get different adapters from different sellers? Can you provide some insight/review about the adapters you have?

4 sets in total, the only difference I've seen in any of them, was that the ones that came with the Hoco strap had tiny Phillips screws rather than the mini star versions. 2 sets from Aliexpress before they were available in the UK, one set from eBay.
 
This band arrived in 3 days from an eBay seller from NY. I think it looks pretty good even though there are different finishes going on. In daylight the band color almost matches the silver sport. My watch is 38mm and the band is 20mm in width. You can remove the spring bars and use any bands you like too.

Got my black Classic Buckle from the eBay seller in Utica, NY. Took about a week to get to me in Oregon. The quality is great for $20 and it looks a lot like the real thing. The only issue is a slight rattling noise when I move my wrist around. I assume that's the parts in the stainless steel adapters moving around. It's pretty unnoticeable though. :)

Posted in the 'Show off your Watch' thread, but wanted to show off the custom band i installed today. Inspired by another member in this thread somewhere. Loving the look.

And other days my 'Fade to Black' Collection :)

Enjoying all the leather smell. Custom Dock from Metacove still to arrive. Ebony Black.

Good combo! I guess that was inspired by me :)

I just got mine in the mail as well. Pretty satisfied for the price, but really wished that they would've used a 24mm band instead of 22mm.
 
Got my Monowear brown leather band with space grey adapters. Not sure if I'm returning or keeping it. Depending on how it compares to the 24mm MVMT tan leather strap I ordered.

Here are a few pics:

Can you give more close up pics of the space gray adapter to see how it blends in with the watch?

I ordered the Monowear band and love that look. If you decide to return it before mine arrives (Mid-June), I'll buy it from you.
 
band width?

Hello, can anyone confirm the correct band width for the 42mm Apple Watch? 18, 20, 22 or 24 mm? Can I use different band width for the 42mm Apple Watch? Please advise. Thanks.

24 mm seems to look the best as it fills up the adapter.
