I wouldn't trust it. First off it's coming from China- a return would be painful. The only way I would try a third party band is if I can return without issue if something is wrong.

I got a third party Chinese knock off band from Amazon just to see if it would be something useable. Nope not good. I will be using Apple bands until the MFI bands start coming out.

I bought cheap Chinese 3rd party band, 42mm version is a bit too small (see image below) and it's not a real leather.
