Insignia Stainless steel mesh band for Apple Watch. I got it for my 45mm series 7 Apple Watch I wanted something nicer then the rubber watch band it came with I used it for a while but it made me itch and my wrist would sweat wired I know, so when I seen the insignia black stainless still with magnetic closure. I loved it the style is simple was super fast and easy to put onto my watch face, you put it right n like a wrist band slip your hand through the opening the. Then pull the strap to your comfort for tightness & the magnetic tip holds it in place. I was iffy at first the magnetic closer I didn't know how strong or well it would hold but it been great haven't had any issue with it coming lose or getting stuck on anything and coming off. It's a nice shiny black small link mesh strap stylish but simple for both men and women it looks nice. Only reason I gave it four stars is I personally think it's slightly heavy for my taste for a daily watch, I expected it to be lighter in weight being that it's stainless steel boyfriend says it's not a noticeable weight difference but I have gotten use to it and completely love the style and comfort. Total worth it.

Overall a functional and good looking metal mesh watch band for the Apple watch. Fit and finish are well done and the plastic tabs that slide into the receiver mechanism of the Apple watch fit perfectly. Magnetic clasp that holds against the overlapped mesh is strong and I was not able to dislodge it when shaking my hand and arm fairly vigorously. Stylistically it's fairly common, you've seen these bands made by many manufacturers so not re-inventing the wheel here. Common notes with the mesh bands are they can potentially pull at your hairs if you wear them with a looser fit. If you wear them closer to your exact size with the adjustable closure, then this shouldn't bother you. I like to wear mine a bit looser so it's a common concern no matter which mesh band you use. Metal was fairly light and I didn't notice its weight after wearing it for a couple hours. Obviously it's not as light as a plastic or stretch band, but definitely fairly nondescript versus a full stainless steel band with links.

THIS… Is Insignia's Stainless steel mesh band, which I picked out in a dark stainless steel look. Insignia is a BestBuy brand so you can trust them to not only stand behind their products but also expect a higher quality item as well. I wanted to replace my old watchband for a few reasons, but mainly because it would pull on my arm hair and really stink at the end of the day. It stinking was worrisome because it meant it was trapping bacteria on my arm which is always gross. I enjoy the watch band being stainless steel as I work in a hospital and always have a fear of something hitching a ride on my watch since that is the hardest-to-clean item on my hand and is always coming into direct contact with my patients. Because of stainless steel's antimicrobial properties, I no longer have to worry about this. I was initially worried that the stainless steel mesh band would also tug at my arm hairs, however, I am excited that this watch band does not tug whatsoever! It also is mesh and breathable so I don’t ever get that gross sweat feeling during a workout and thanks to the loop design I can put it on quickly with one hand. I have really enjoyed swapping out bands and I enjoy how versatile the band is as I never have to worry about it being too much for casual affairs, or to little for black tie events as well. I think insignia really hit this one out of the park and is a testimony to them creating a better product for less! The best part of the whole thing is, when you buy this at Best Buy… you never have to worry about getting the wrong watchband, they have this model and several other variations as well to fit all watches and styles. Best Buy has an excellent return policy and even better customer service, so you never have to worry about buying a product that you don’t like… so why not test it out?!

I have had several different generations of Apple Watches and consequently I have also had experience with all the different types of compatible watch bands, both expensive and inexpensive. I was pleasantly surprised with this band as it is very comparable to the more expensive versions of it. The fit and feel of it is very nice against the skin; it does not chafe, feel too rigid or have any sharp edging. The installation was quick and easy—it snaps into place with no side-to-side give (I have found that other cheaply made compatible bands will move slightly back and forth and not sit snugly in place sometimes). The magnets keep the band firmly closed as they are pretty strong. The look of it is quite classy and stylish; I have a red Apple Watch which has a black bezel and this black steel mesh band looks really good paired with it! However…the band itself is too long so when I adjust it to fit snugly on my wrist, the end of it where it wraps around and magnetically sticks to close the loop—it overlaps and touches the top of the Apple Watch body, right above the start of the bezel. So when I use it I am constantly worried that it will scratch the top of the watch. I also tried wearing it higher on my wrist so that the end of it would not touch the top of the watch face, but it was just too awkward to wear it higher than I normally would on a daily basis. And by no means are my wrists super skinny; they are on the slim side, I’ll admit, but not out of the ordinary. So this watch band would have been perfect but for that too-long band. As a result, during the course of the day, it would slide off periodically or become a bit too loose and I could not get the proper readings for the various health and fitness features I specifically monitor everyday. For that reason I had to give it a rating of 4/5 stars.

I love the apple watch band. It fits and looks great!

I purchased this as an open box at Eden Prairie MN store. When I went online it was less at Ridgedale Mall. But the new price was $39.99 at Eden Prairie and the new price at Ridgedale was $29.99. Well I had purchased the open box and exchanged it for the less expensive on at Ridgedale ... They added an additional charge to my account so I paid MORE for the open box than the NEW watch band. The manager came in and said that he would talk with the employee who did the exchange but nothing to make my purchase right.

Love the band the one it comes with it’s more for man

great once learned all the functions. i HAVE ENJOYED READING ABOUT IT AND FINDING OUT ALL IT CAN DO FOR ME. i ESPECIALLY WANTED IT FOR MEASURING MY HEART FUNCTIONS WHEN ASLEEP.

Like the band. Only thing is difficult to adjust the band size.

Easy on and off looks great / easy to connect to Apple Watch

This is the best Apple Watch yet. It has a lot of cool new features.
