This watch band is great! It gives me the same look as the "designer" brand at a much lower cost. The quality of the materials used is also really good. This is not a thin piece of "pleather". Instead, it is a thick piece of genuine leather that is very comfortable to wear. This is a really great purchase based on both quality and price!

I really like my band and the style but the color is not the same as in the photo it's more of a orange brown color.

This Apple Watch band is beautiful however it is really meant for super small wrists. I am currently on my second band because the first band that I had simply fell apart because the hinges broke, the screws came out. The new band has been working fine but I still don't have confidence in it and I'm nervous about it breaking.

i suggest wearing it around the house for a day or so to make sure it molds to your wrist better. it a very feminine band which is what i was going for. Just wish the color was darker / looked like the color in the picture.

This band has completely different hardware color than the ones in the pictures. This is the worst color ever!!! Super disappointing! I bought this as a gift to my wife and didn't even give it to her because that would be embarrassing!

This watch band is of high quality and I wanted to keep it. However, it would not fit my average-sized wrist. My wrist measures 6 3/4 inches and I wear a standard sized 7 1/2 inch bracelet. I was surprised that it ended up being much too tight and uncomfortable to wear. I know that leather stretches over time, but it was too uncomfortable to wear until then. I had to return it.

Great band, I do prefer the darker color. The white did get a bit dirty but I was able to wipe it clean with some wipes.

This is a very well made, high quality band. Leather is a little stiff, but softens up as you wear it. Definitely for wearers with a small wrist, which works great for me but may be a problem for the average person. Great addition to my Apple Watch band collection!

This watch band is a great way to accent my outfits. It definitely is a nice mix up to the other watch bands that Apple sells. It isn't for someone looking for a comfort band, but is a great fashion accessory.

The leather started peeling near the holes within a month. The band was stiff and the face of my watch wouldn't stay in place. I hoped that the band would soften, but never did. I ended up returning the band. Bummer.

Band is very short. I have small wrists and it just fit. Will be a problem if you have bigger wrists. Band is very stiff. I returned since I wanted thicker straps and a softer leather.

The band was a little difficult to wear at first but once I got used to the leather I loved it. I thought the band was going to be a darker color but I love it.

Looks great but it's small. I have a fairly small wrist but I have to put this on the largest setting to wear it and it's still tighter than I like to wear my watches

I love the way this band looks! Very cute, but as another review states, it's very stiff at first and needs to be worn a few weeks before it gets broken in.

This band is very cute and gives the Apple Watch a new look, I wore it everyday for two months and it started looking worn out which was a disappointment.

I think it looks great. However, the band is pretty tight and i normally have a smaller wrist.

I bought this product and it didn't even fit my wrist despite saying it would. Can't believe they don't make different sizes of this band. Sucks cause I was really looking for a band for my Apple Watch like this. I ended up returning it to the amazement of the employee. She couldn't believe it wouldn't fit on my wrist. IF you do buy this just make sure you look at the size to make sure it fits you.

I loved the look of the double strap, I purchased both black and silver, as well as white and rose gold. Extremely durable, I wear this band almost everyday. Nice quality. Does run a bit small, but is leather and will stretch.
