Bad for small wrists, snags clothes
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This isn’t terrible for everyone, but I have a small wrist, but an Apple watch needs to be snug. I have to fold it over and it often loosens and forces me to enter the watch password again. The other thing I hate is it snags clothes and blankets and furniture. It ruined a good shirt. I have to buy one from Apple, even though theirs stretches eventually. At least they have bans that are sized and don’t snag.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendOk

I would recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Appearance
Band Snags on Clothing
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This band looks really nice but it snagged on all of my clothing and the magnets connecting it to the watch kept falling off. I returned for a new one but it did the same thing.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Metal band
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good initially, color began to fade and started to emit a foul metallic odor.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot great quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not great quality. The “rose gold” is a shade of pink and the paint rubs off where the magnet rubs against it. I bought this open box and I can see why it was returned.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendItem broke and was returned
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought the item slightly discounted and it was okay for the time I had it. Unfortunately the strap began to detach from the hinge that attaches to the watch and so I returned it. Luckily it was still within my return window.

The reason I bought this it suppose to be better then Fibit and last longer . How can you track Your night time activity it you have to charge it every night or it will die.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendIt's ok..
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It pulls my arm hairs and the paint started to wear off. It's an ok alternative for the Apple band but I recommend shaving your arms if planning on using this.
I would recommend this to a friendEh
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this because Best Buy didn’t have the apple Milanese loop and that was what I really wanted. For some reason I am not crazy about how it looks on my wrist. I wish it was thicker/beefier. It looks so fragile.

No, I would not recommend this to a frienddisapppointed
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the magnetic band except the black finish is wearing off. I have only been wearing it for a couple of weeks. Thought it would be more durable.

Non-Apple watch band
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The band does not fit right on my wrist. The length seems too short.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Magnetic Apple Watch band
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I only give it 2 stars because of style. If you have hair on your arms it kinda pulls it. The magnetic part is good and strong. Price is a bit to steap to
No, I would not recommend this to a friendWould be nice if I actually had it
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A store associate ordered this band online for me on 1/19 as it wasn’t in stock in the store. As of 2/16 it’s been 4 weeks and tracking shows that UPS hasn’t received it for shipping yet, so I’m still waiting for it.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend The band broke off
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It broke off completely and disintegrated. So i just returned it for a different band.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendOkay not that great
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of the impulse buying that went wrong. The quality is not worth the money. The magnet scrapes off the black paint and shows the metal underneath.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendEasily breaks down, very flimsy, starts hurting
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product is very low quality. It broke and the metal started peeling off within a month of two of my using it. Now every time I wear the band, my wrists get scratched and start bleeding. This is unacceptable. It's also way too long/big for my wrist, it needs to be shorter.
