I was in a nearby Best Buy Store messing around this past Sunday and saw a black Platinum magnetic watch band.

Does it require any adjustment throughout the day? My $12 version does and it's a little annoying.

The band is very smooth, almost silky-feeling, and the magnet is also smooth (but not 'silky'). I'll try a thin could of something that has some friction to it, maybe a very thin coat of 3M Weather Adhesive or the like.

I like the band well enough but am annoyed at the need to readjust it more than once a day.

Hello guys,
We opened a new online store offering third-party sport bands, nylon bands, milanese loop recently. We are planing to giving away some bands in exchange of honest reviews. Please pm me if you are interested.

I’ve had a leather watch band from FinWatchStraps, handmade in Finland for about a year now and it’s really breaking in well. Very reasonable prices and they ship quickly from Finland.

As I noted in post #10, I have a bunch of Moko sports bands. Unfortunately, Moko seems to have gotten out of the sports band business. I don't see their products on Amazon any more. Any recommendations for sports bands? I'd like to pick up a few colors I don't have. It's really important to me that the band ships with two sizes just as Apple does because I need the smaller size.

This week I bought a tan and hunter brown Dbramante1928 Copenhagen.
Full grain leather. The hunter is an extremely dark brown. I've been wearing the hunter for two days. I haven't used the tan one yet.

I have ordered several bands from Fancy Bands and am very happy with with them. They have good deals and come in a couple of days.

After seeing these color wave loop bands in my Facebook feed a few times, I decided to give them a try. They sell for $30 or three for $60, and they are the same quality as the Apple loop that sells for $100 each. I have a very small wrist so I always worry about sizing. The Solace sizing chart was 100% accurate and these fit perfectly. Highly recommended!
