Apple Watch Band - Ottm 42mm Unique Wooden Watch Band for Apple iWatch with Extra Links and Tool for resizing (Zebra/Sandalwood)

I got an Apple Watch 2 in the Space Black Stainless Steel Case with a Space Black Link bracelet - but I wanted a case of a completely different material and color, in order to swap out with when I want the watch to look less "black tie".After a few failed attempts at wooden bands - I finally landed on this gem from some webpage I found via Google, that was discussing the best Apple Watch bands in the market.For one thing - most wooden bands tend to be either one boring shade, or a color that's too light and looks off, for a black Apple Watch case. This is not to mention shortcomings on the actual band designs as well.This band looks even better in person. The dark-brown wood shade on it (from a distance, it looks black/ebony), matches the black on my case - plus, its two-tone also offers a reddish-brown shade that I can match with other accessories of various colors as well (see pics next to my leather bracelets of two different shades of brown and a black one). I would also wear this with my red shirts as well.It came with a tool and extra links to add (or remove) as needed - which was easy enough for me. Also, like the official Apple bands - there is no "wrong way" to attach the band to the watch, and it's easy to detach and attach to the case as well. It's really quite dummy-proof in every way - great design!I get a lot more compliments on it, a helluva lot more than my Space black Link Bracelet that costs over 400 bucks!!!One thing I would caution when swapping out wooden bands in general - wood is a material that is more prone to breakage than any other watch band material. I broke off one link due to my own carelessness when swapping out, but I had an extra one on hand. This is not a failure of this band - it happens with wooden bands in general. Just swap out your wooden bands with a lot more caution than you would with your leather, or silicone, or metal bands.You only need to worry about fragility when swapping out the band with a different band and vice versa, but once installed and on your wrist, fragility is a non-issue.This band is definitely worth a lot more than the price I paid for it.

I was wanting a unique band for my watch, and have always loved things that are made out of wood (I have a bamboo Macbook case that I love!). I am a woman with particularly tiny wrists (about 5.5"), though, and I was worried that this might be too bulky for me, but I really like the look of it! I ended up taking 5 links out, and the fit is pretty much perfect! It seems like really high quality, but I just got it today, so I don't know about durability. After reading a couple reviews about the links falling out (hopefully that's just a fluke!), I think I might put a teeny bit of glue or something on the ends of the pins just to try and make sure it stays (but I am concerned that might affect the flexibility of the watch).I'll probably just run my fingers along the edges of the watch every so often to make sure none of the pins are falling out.Overall I'm really impressed! This is a beautiful band for men or women. Definitely recommend it!UPDATE 4-26-17:I was switching out the band last night (I wear a different one to bed), and one of the links broke - the wood completely split and now the band is in two pieces. (If the band were two pieces, it might be more durable, but because it's all one piece, it puts stress on it any time you go to take the band off the watch.) I'm sure I can replace the broken link with one of the extras that came with the band, but I'm definitely more worried about the durability and the possibility of it breaking while I'm wearing it. It's really a bummer because I this is such a beautiful band, but if I fix it with the extra links, I still probably won't wear it much for fear of it breaking again.

I just love...love...love these bands! After purchasing my apple watch sport on Black Friday I knew I wanted not only a beautiful band but also a uniquely different one. I stumpled upon these bands and fell in love with the picture! So I ordered two The Sandal Wood and Zebra Wood! I had to wait till christmas to open my watch (Wife Gift to Me) so my review was delayed but WOW once I put the band on what a difference it made! From childish band to sophisticated and casual...My girlfriend loves the finish and look of both the Zebra Wood Band and Sandal Wood Band which also match my shamballa bracelets! The bands come in a nice secure box with extra links if you have a bigger wrist also you can remove links if your wrist is smaller...it has clear instructions on how to do this just be extra careful...By the way I had to add in the review also I had a problem since I had to purchase the bands on seperate cards so I didnt qualify for free shipping on the second one...I contacted the seller (owner) and he was SO HELPFUL and nice he tried his best to get me free shipping on the second band! He went above and beyond to ensure I was a satisfied customer! That is a dying breed nowadays! Thank you to him LOVE MY BANDS!!!
