I had high expectations, but wound up returning. The leather is very stiff, I think this would break in after some time, but I just couldn't devote it. It was too tight and uncomfortable to really break in. I also have a rose gold watch and wasn't crazy about the gold hardware with this strap.

Nice but too stiff. My wrists are small and it just fit. If you have large wrists, this may not be for you. I returned it since i liked my other band better. I'm going to keep looking for a double wrap band but I'd like it to be a little wider and softer leather.

It looks great in the box but awkward when it's on the wrist. I have small wrists but this just didn't fit right and was really uncomfortable.

Love the look of the band but I did find that the band tends to slide under the watch, and that makes the watch auto-lock if you have wrist detection on. Slightly annoying but an ok tradeoff for a more dressy band.

This band was a great way to spruce up my Apple Watch. The double wrap look really adds to the overall statement that this watch makes and the color is exactly as pictured.

I got this band to replace the original sports band that came with my apple watch. It's definitely a much more stylish band than the sports band, and the color (white) goes well with the rose-gold watch. I have medium-small wrists, and it fits well and is mostly comfortable. The leather is extremely stiff at first but after a few weeks wearing it every day it basically conforms to the shape of your wrist. They say it's top-grain leather, but I'm a bit skeptical; it just doesn't feel like the top-grain leather I've had experience with (it's not very soft). Overall it's a great replacement for the sport band, is comfortable to wear, goes on easy (after some practice), is reasonably priced, and looks very stylish! Hopefully it lasts a long time!

The leather was too stiff so it was difficult to get on, and it was very uncomfortable. I couldn't deal with it long enough to try and break it in so I returned it.

The watch gets too big with this band and it does not stay in the magnet to charge. It looks nice but it was not well thought.

AS MATERIALISTIC AS THIS MAY SOUND, I THOUGHT THAT THIS WATCH BAND'S UNIQUELY EYE-CATCHING DESIGN WAS ENOUGH TO WIN ME OVER! BUT I QUICKLY CAME TO THE DRAWN CONCLUSION THAT THE DISCOMFORT OF THE FLASHY AND STRAPPY BAND, BY FAR, OUTWEIGHED ITS' PHYSICAL ATTRACTION. I HAVE YET TO SPORT MY NEW BAND DUE TO MY LACKING TOLERANCE OF THE CHAFING SKIN FROM THE POORLY DESIGNED APPLE WATCH BAND... :(

I bought this and liked it. However, it wasn't a good fit for me. I still think it's cute, but it should come in different t size options.

The watch band was beautiful! Color matched exactly how it looks online. Just not great for people with extremely small wrist!

I love the rose gold clasp and that the band wasn't "white." Band needs to be broken in some more to super comfortable.

This band is cute but isn't long enough to wrap around my wrist. I was disappointed and had to return.
