  • TLDR: See title, strap from www.strappingfellow.com, adapter from amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015GKS3Z2?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage

  • What I sought in a strap: I really care about quality leather (belt, wallet, shoes are all carefully chosen). I’m willing to pay for it, but I think the Apple leather bands are not good. Enjoy yours if you have one, I’m just some guy on the internet, but the quality to cost ratio on those Apple’s leather bands would offend me if I wasn’t so cynical. I don’t know a ton about leather, but I’ve learned that Shell Cordovan is some of the best in the world, produced in the US. I started researching Shell Cordovan straps that would fit my watch (42mm face, so 24mm band imo). Long story short, when I found strappingfellow.com, it was obvious that this was by far the best bang for your buck. If you’re ready to spend somewhere in the range of $80-$140 on an ideal leather strap, you can either get pretty nice choices that are mass produced, or you can get this customized and tailored perfection from a dude in Virginia.

  • Experience: I exchanged several emails with the artisan/proprietor - Sky - about what I’d like and what options were on the table. He was very responsive and flexible, wasn’t locked into just the set choices listed on the website, and was ready to use the ingredients at his disposal to make whatever strap I wanted. There were plenty of options to choose from, all very tasteful. In the end, I placed the order with the following description (copied from the email):

    -- Black Shell Cordovan

    -- With taper (I'm not sure if a 2, 3 or 4 mm taper would be best with such a wide strap. You're the pro, I'll trust your judgment)

    -- Gray threading

    -- Stainless steel buckle

    -- 24mm

    -- Wrist measurement: 6 and 7/8ths inches (see attached pic to be certain)

    -- Bar to bar measurement: bar begins at 1 and 13/16ths and ends at 1 and 14/16ths (see attached pic to be certain)

    -- No leather backing

  • Look/Feel: Exactly what I ordered and hoped for. I took detailed pictures, hopefully they accurately express that this thing just fits perfectly and is truly top quality leather. I only realized after it arrived: because it’s tailored to your wrist, there’s a small amount of slack left on the strap, you only need one “belt loop” to contain that slack. A pleasant surprise.

  • Cost/Delivery: I got a bit of a discount because I used a coupon code, so I don’t want to list what I paid so that no one gets the wrong expectations, but I paid around $100. It took about two weeks from order to arrival. I got this discount code for 15% off with my order that you all are welcome to use: "104" (full disclosure: I get like 15% rebate if people use this code). Note that it comes with a “1-year 100% satisfaction guarantee."

    Happy to answer questions or get more pics.

I have a couple of these that work really well and match my black SS. I'm not sure if they're OEM or not though.

Someone else recommended these and I bought them. They look great with the space black. Make sure you look at the space black ones and not the space grey! Still looking for good bands though.

I purchased these https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B015GKS3Z2/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and they work great. Using them with a horween leather band.

In case you're interested, here are the Space Grey adaptors I have with my leather band. In my opinion, and from what people have told me, it looks exactly like its original. The color matches perfectly.

u/atperryman · 2 pointsr/AppleWatch

I got a leather band from Fossil's website and some space grey adapters from Amazon

Edit: Watch band size is 22mm for a 42mm AW

Was hoping for a solid band with Prime but couldn't find one. Order placed Dec 10th and it arrived today! Very happy with the combination.

I got similar adapters at a fraction of the cost here. They were great.

u/dalethomas81 · 1 pointr/AppleWatch

I would recommend an adapter of this style if you can. They are more sturdy than the pin style and would be less prone to breaking and dropping your watch.
