Year Review, excellent hold up. Looks great and solid.
Bought the black (butterfly clasp) steel band alternative and paired with Black Stainless Steel Series 3 42mm, it’s perfect. Quality is solid, on the heavier side of weight, looks perfect if you’re looking for black watches/dark watch-band setups. I do work on my lcar, taken to concerts/outdoors, beaches, etc and have had the band since last year. Little micro scratches on clear coat but nothing down to the actual steel or notiecable by any means. The paint and overall durability is one of the best I’ve seen in general, especially at this price. Seriously good band. Nit picking, some unpainted steel can show in between the bands but get creative and put black sharpie in there and that’s it.

A solid, affordable Link-Style Apple Watch band
Bought this band for a family member as they did not want to buy a very expensive Apple Link Band. I bought this band to see if it was a high quality and good alternative to the $499 Apple band.First impressions were awesome just with the packaging. The product was safely packed and presented well. The bracelet itself is solidly made and is heavy, which gives the Apple Watch a more premium feel.Installing the band on the Apple Watch was very easy. After installing the band, I noticed the band was too big to fit. I used the included tool and bits to size the band accordingly. Take your time and follow the instructions or you could damage the band itself.Overall, I am very impressed with the item and would recommend it. I wish the way to reduce the size was like the Apple original Link, but I'd rather pay 30 bucks than 500 for a band for a 300 dollar watch.

Bought 3 bands, Monowear, Oittm, JETech - 6.5 inch wrist
I bought the Monowear silver metal link 42mm, Oittm 42mm Stainless Steel, and the JETech 42mm stainless steel for my stainless steel Apple watch series 2 since I really couldn't decide based on the pictures and reviews. I even watched some reviews on youtube, but still couldn't decide. There were pros and cons to each and so I wanted to see them in person. I figured something that would be holding a 300 dollar smartwatch should be solid in build quality and was worth spending the time to look at several options and pay to return the ones I didn't like. Monowear: I really like the style of this band, but it didn't quite fit right. I have a 6.5 inch wrist and it was just a little too big or a little too tight when I played with removing the links. Plus the price was way more expensive than the other two. $84.74 at the time of this review. I wanted to see why they thought they could justify it. In the end, it's a case of pricing something high to make people think it's quality. If you really hold all three in your hands you would easily tell the Oittm is better quality. JETech ($24.99): this one was the cheapest of the bunch, and it took me about 20 seconds to realize why and put it back in the box. Build quality is the cheapest of all three and it just felt flimsy, like it was going to break any minute. I do like the style of the links better than the Oittm, but it just felt too weak for me to even consider after holding the other two. I also didn't like the brushed look compared to the Monowear which has the middle section of the link polished. The Oittm is brushed too, but looks better to me for some reason. I'm not saying the JETech will break since I didn't really use it, but it just didn't feel as sturdy as the other two and the build quality just simply isn't as nice as the other two. I did pull the JETech back out to see how it fit and it didn't fit me right either, so I guess I'm going with the Oittm. Oittm ($32.99): felt like the best build quality and was the perfect fit for me. The style is a little different from the other two, but I can get used to that. I think the other two look more classic and this one is a bit more fancy. I tend to like classic, so it's just a matter of preference. I also didn't like that the clasp says Oittm, but thats minor. The Monowear has a little MW symbol and the JETech was blank. Lastly, the metal link removal tool that came with the JETech was much nicer than the plastic Oittm, but the Oittm one worked fine. I don't foresee needing to use it again. The most expensive Monowear didn't even come with a tool; go figure. Everyone has different sizes wrists, so this review is very subjective. Just get all three like I did and decide for yourself. Heck for the price of these compared to the Apple one, you could keep two or all three and it would still be cheaper.

Love the product, great quality, but an important trick when attaching or detaching the band!
This band is handsome, easy to customize and looks great with my iWatch4 44mm aluminum finish and based on my look at the store, would be equally as good looking with the stainless steel finish. Here's an important trick if you change your bands frequently like I do: For both attaching and detaching the band, I would START one side and then start the other before fully connecting or detaching the band. Otherwise the band twists awkwardly and it feels like it could stress the band or the watch. Great product, nice that it included all the tools for adjusting the links too.

Great value -- looks much more expensive than it is
This band is as attractive as the very much more expensive Apple link band that came with the original stainless steel Apple Watch and it seems less vulnerable to scratching than the Apple band. Only downside is that removing the links to size it is challenging. The tool provided for removing links is very difficult to use, since it does not dock the watch at all and it takes considerable dexterity to align it. The lack of stabilization makes it too easy to break the push pin in the tool -- I broke one, but fortunately 3 are provided. It took me over an hour to take off the 5 links I needed to get a good fit. But once you get past that, the band looks great with my sparkling new gold stainless steel Apple Watch 4 and wears very comfortably. Although the band fastener is not as elegantly machined as the Apple one, it still works well and fits well on the wrist. Highly recommend this -- just be prepared for the struggle sizing it.

Classy black band
Black watch band looks great with black stainless steel Apple Watch. The color matches exactly and much cheaper than the Apple version that costs $500 and is finished like this product. I think the reviews saying it was hard to size are people who get frustrated easily. Just follow the directions and have some patience. It took about 10 minutes but would have taken less had I not bent the tool provided. I bent the tool back into place and had no problem. If you are someone who doesn’t have patience, just take it to a jeweler.

Excellent Color match with Space Grey (Stainless Steel)
Was looking everywhere to find a band that would match with my space grey stainless steel apple watch (Gen. 3) It is the only one matching PERFECT! I only have it for a couple of days but looks good and if you are a little careful not to scratch it it should last! Super easy to resize too. Again, given the low price it looks great!

Beware of scratches!
Be aware that this item is shipped from China and will take awhile to get here. As far as 3rd party bands go, this is a nice looking band. I haven't experienced any discoloration or issues with pin removal as stated in other reviews. In my opinion, the color on the picture is not the same as the product in hand, it's a lot darker - though still likes nice with the space grey watch.I have one major issue with this band and it's a bit of a doozy - It's extremely finicky attaching the second connector to the watch and even worse - it SCRATCHES the watch quite badly if you mess it up - which you will because there is no easy way of doing it. I own the aluminum version and I'm extremely unhappy about the scratches. A simple tweak such as adding rubber to the attachment edges would of most likely solved this issue. Which is a major shame, as the actual band itself is quite nice to look at. This is not a band you should remove regularly or at all for that matter unless you want your watch to look munched on the edges. Because of the damage, I can only give this product 2 stars.

Thick, solid, SHINY
Attached to 42mm Apple Watch 4. It is like a thick watch band of old. Heavy and strong and looks exactly as you would expect. Very shiny and a fingerprint magnet. Looks great, would recommend to a friend with no hesitation. Had no problems putting it together, fittings are precise. Comes with tools to remove links to adjust the band to your size.

it's okay
Works okay once you have it on but the fit into the apple watch is not great. I was close to damaging the watch trying to get it in place, and to be honest wouldn't risk it again.

The item is exactly as described and is very well ...
The item is exactly as described and is very well made. The only issue I have is the clasp. It is very bulky on my wrist and find it a little uncomfortable to wear.

Fantastic.
Well made band. Looks great with my Apple Watch 3 in stainless steel. The match between watch and band is perfect
