the top two pictures look just like the sport band, the final one less so - and I'm pretty sure it's this that shows the actual product. the first two looks like they got both types of black sports band, and photoshopped out the apple markings on the stainless steel pin one to pretend it's theirs...

Might i ask where you got the bands from love the blue , red and tan bands


How is everyone storing their straps/bands when not in use?

I got this custom made denim watch roll that holds 6 watches but soon to be a little small as i have another 4-5 bands still to arrive. The Roll even has a little space to store springbar tools and screwdrivers. Far right. :)

I know some of my bands may not be to some peoples taste, buckles may be too large for some, but it's how i like them for now. Thanks.

These space gray adapters just came in and the color is the closest I've seen yet. Here's the link-http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00XP...ch+adapter&dpPl=1&dpID=41SbM2RgQ7L&ref=plSrch
I am looking to pair it with a bright red band I ordered from eBay(not received yet)

The red silicon strap came in. The silicon doesn't feel thin or cheap. I do wish the buckle was space gray, though. But, I think it'll do until Apple releases their red sport band.
Stouch space gray adapters from Amazon-$18
Red 24mm watch band from eBay- $11

I tend to avoid silicon products for iPhone/iPad cases because they don't feel as rigid as say TPU (more rigid than silicon but might not have a soft feel to it) or Fluoroelastomer (Sport band material). I am wondering if some companies will produce bands with the same material as Apple..

Looks great, I want to try to get those adapters but the Amazon link don't seem to show them available for the 42mm.

New to the forum. Has anyone ordered from Hellonatostrap.com? If so, how did it work out? I tried searching but didn't get any results. Thanks.

Everyone that's fans of clockworksynergy, Jeff in their sales department wanted me to pass along that they now have:

- 18 premium leather colours
- 6 nylon colours
All 5 of the adapter colours (Stainless Steel, Space Grey, Black, Rose Gold, Yellow Gold)

By the end of August, they will have an additional:
- 15 silicone colours
- 20 nylon colours

Also: the adapters they have built to Apple's specifications. If the adapters ever become available from Apple for licensees, they'll likely purchase them from Apple (depends if Apple's reasonable in their pricing of course) :)

I have, through their ebay account "come_into_style". The emails come from Hellonatostrap and they enclose a business card as well. Their ebay store is listed as "HNS Watch Strap" (HNS = Hellonatostrap). Here's a link their ebay store: http://stores.ebay.com/HNS-WATCH-STRAP?_trksid=p2047675.l2563 If you are looking for a 2-piece nylon band so far they only have black and just added the red. I like these straps for the black PVD rings they use. Link to my previous post on them: https://forums.macrumors.com/thread...nd-strap-thread.1866289/page-62#post-21555075

I have the black band now and the red is due to arrive this Thursday and I'll post a photo of it then. They are a fast ship first class mail if you buy from them here in the U.S. They provide tracking on their first class so that's nice too. I notice they have some leather bands that could go on adapters, and some buckles as well.

I purchased from his ebay store 'come_into_style'. Nice thick black leather with white hand stitching. Love the strap, he has great prices, ships quick. Business card also had a discount code if i remember correctly. Only thing is the strap smelled very strongly of as best i can describe it as 'boot leather'. Not that nice quality leather smell. It's super thick and durable so it's my everyday strap so far. I don't care about it getting messed up.

I already got notice of shipping. So if the ones I get are solid, I'll likely be a repeat customer.
