- Cons mentioned:Band length
Terrible for 42mm bands.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The band is WAY TOO SHORT to wrap around the wrist. This might be a manufacturing problem. Product seems okay, but should be removed from the shelves.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Great concept - Cheap Materials
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this band. Overall, looks nice. However, over a period of 2 weeks of wearing, the black coating on the band has worn off where the magnet secures the band.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendOk Product
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an ok product but the quality could be better. I had part of the finish peel off on the first day. Unfortunately I threw the box away before I detected it.

- Pros mentioned:Appearance
Apple Watch band
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Liked the look of the band but did not like the magnetic close. Made it to difficult to put the band on my wrist. Returned it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Nooo waste of money
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It started changing color after 3 4 days of usage don’t recommend
No, I would not recommend this to a friendLoses color
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Loses color catches hairs more comfortable the Milanese loop but color fades not comfortable but magnet is strong and watch stays on well
No, I would not recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Clasp
Doesn’t Fit
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This band is terrible. Doesn’t lock into place on an Apple Watch and magnet doesn’t work. I returned it
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Bought for small wrists; not worth it.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have small wrists and the bands that come with the Apple Watch weren't cutting it for me. So I bought this thinking I could tighten it better, and the magnetism is weak. I even had to fold the magnetic part in because the strap was too long. Slips off and loosens whenever I'm actively moving my wrists. Still continuing my search for a reliable Apple Watch band that will stay tight and sturdy.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendMagnet sticks to metal
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have to be careful since the magnet sticks to everything you get close to. Also the band is short for those with large wrists. Ended up returning the product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendAverage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not happy with the purchase and when open the box, beat buy return window was over, wasted money on this.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Magnet
Magnet broke
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this a week ago and the magnet broke off the end. Would not recommend buying it.

Cheap band
|Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfortable band for some, but not for people with hair on their arms or the Apple Watch ultra. The band doesn’t hold the weight of the Apple Watch ultra well, and the magnet design will pinch your arm hair if you have any.

||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I remember buying this a while back, returned it after a few days because it kept pinching me.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendWay too small
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seems to be good quality but my husband can't even get it on. He has average wrists and the Apple band fits just fine while this one is way too small.
