If you are looking for this type of band, this is definitely a good, quality option for the money. One thing that is inherent in these types of bands, however, is that the fit of the band is not always perfect because the band must have links removed (or added, I suppose) to ensure the proper size. As opposed to some of the velcro-style and other watch bands that are out there, the "set up" on this band is a manual one. While the band does include the little tool for removing the pins that allows for links to be removed, the process is both manual and precise. Simply stated, if my wife had to resize this watch band on her own, it would not happen. Getting back to my original point, the watch band can only be adjusted in increments equal to the width of one band from pin-to-pin. Thus, it is possible that the band is either too tight or too lose on the wrist, depending on the size of your wrist. (As various factors can cause slight fluctuations in the size of a person's wrist from day-to-day, the watch band may not fit the same from day-to-day as well.) Again, this is not necessarily a unique problem with this particular band as it is inherent any any "link type" band like this. For many that may not be a problem... Just something to keep in mind.
Another factor to consider is the Apple Watch that you have. This particular band is made for watches with smaller faces. While the band will fit in larger watches, there is a noticeable gap at the sides, which is not aesthetically pleasing, in my opinion. Again, the description includes the watch sizes that this band will ideally fit, but if you are not sure which version of the Apple Watch you have, I would recommend verifying before buying this band to make sure it fits appropriately. (Again, not unique to this band... Just something to keep in mind.)
So, again, this is a nice band that works well and looks good, especially for the price. There are some inherent "issues" with link bands like this, though, and the varying sizes of Apple Watches and the need for different size bands creates some issues if purchasing on line without knowing for sure what type of Apple Watch you have. If I could score in 1/2 stars, I would probably give this band 4.5 stars given those inherent limitations. Because 1/2 star ratings are not possible, however, I find myself having to round down, if you will, to four stars on this one. (For many, though, if those issues are not a problem, this band definitely fits the bill and I would not argue with a five star rating in those instances.)
I would recommend this to a friend

I got this to switch out the silicon type band that came with my Apple Watch which is at the most 4 months old and was getting stretched out due to my wrist swelling at night this product actually comes with the tool to remove the pins that hold the links in place and easy to read instructions that are large enough to see without hunting for them on line or trying to find a magnifying glass to enlarge the letters for a change. The pros for this band is the fact of ease to attach to the watch body and the ease of removal of the pins thanks to the tool. The only con is that you do need to take your time when taking the links out to adjust to the size of your wrist along with making sure that if you have to remove more than one to take from both sides not just the one like I did at first (made myself laugh when doing it) Yes I did along with a few other words which I won't say. All in all this watch band is very comfortable does not pull on the hair on your arm and very secure once adjusted to the correct length on both sides and an absolute must to get if your replacing one, I would absolutely recommend this to my friends
