Not what I expected.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this band thinking it would expand and be more comfortable. It feels heavy and does not expand. I don’t wear it.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Im very disappointed with Apple and this watch. It keeps disconnecting to my watch. Yes all the updates are done to both the watch and my iPhone 12. If I pay this much money then I expect it to work like it should. Too late to get my money back! Dont buy it, get the cellular one if you have to have one!

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am returning the Platinum Stainless Steel link band I purchased. I rate the band 5 stars. But the tool to remove the links is a dud. The pin in the tool broke. Unfortunately I could not insert a replacement pin.

Poor craftsmanship
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review."You get what you pay for" applies here. The links have spaces between them and the clamp is uncomfortable - it has a lump that presses against your wrist unlike the genuine Apple design. I returned it same day. Plus, Best Buy sent me an opened product with missing link adjuster tool. I buy new I expect new. Shows how much the employee who mailed it cared!

Not recommended
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had this band for about 4 hours, tried to take out some links and the pieces broke. RETURNED
No, I would not recommend this to a friendPaint fades off
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Besides paint fading, if you move your wrist in a 90 degree position it opens and might get lost
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNice at first but major issues
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This band is fairly inexpensive but comes with some flaws. The finish wears off very quickly with normal use. Secondly, but most critical, the band came disconnected from the watch by moving my arm. Unfortunately, my watch fell to the ground and I now have a scratch on the case. Poor design if this can occur. I want the manufacturer to cover my watch damage.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendPoor locking design
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The band unlinks every time I bend my wrist. Put on a shirt it unlocks, open a door it unlocks, eat a meal it unlocks.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendSo so
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Links broke after a month. Not pleased. But the shipping was A+
No, I would not recommend this to a friendWatch band
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Feels very cheap but not horrible quality. Wouldn’t buy again
No, I would not recommend this to a friendDoesn't stay closed.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unfortunately the release for the band sticks out beyond the edge. So if you bend your wrist enough to put a little pressure on it, which I did constantly, the band pops open. The Apple version they are copying doesn't have the release buttons sticking out beyond the edge of the band, so it would probably be fine.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot as advertised
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Supposedly, this was an excellent condition open box. It turned out to be a floor model, which was fine, but was worn on multiple links. Was also missing tool to remove links. I returned it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendPoor design
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very hard to remove when you want to use another band. Bends very easy.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendIt's a Okay band
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It feels cheap for the price. The band is kinda short as well.
