Hi all. Does anyone wear a cheaper alternative to the Hermes leather Single Tour Black strap with deployment clasp?
I’m eyeing up my first 44mm Apple Watch and love this strap but I’m very reluctant to pay about £500 for it.
id strongly recommend checking out used ones on ebay or similar. I picked up a genuine used Stainless band for £83 on ebay...and it arrived like new, just didn't have a boxAlso seen this from a website called Mintapple never heard of the site. Looks a nice alternative to the Titanium band.

batteries can be replaced but I'm not sure if its something Apple do....and if its third-party I'm not sure if they can guarantee its waterproofNoticed in the last week that the battery in my Series 3 only just about lasts the day now. Previously it would only be down to half by the time I took it off to charge each night.
Can the batteries in these things be replaced and if so is it cost effective? Or should I just be looking to upgrade to a Series 6? Or a 5?
have you recently done any updates? if so , give a hard reset a try as that can work wondersBattery health is saying 100% still and I’ve not added any apps or anything that might be draining it quicker than before, so it’s a bit of a mystery. It’s gone from really good battery wear to bad, pretty much overnight.
I think I’ll just live with it for now until I decide whether to get a 5 or a 6.
IMO it’s a more premium look, it’s weightier as well and of course you get Apples blend of sapphire Crystal meaning it’s much less likely to get scratchedIs it worth paying the extra for a stainless steel case on the Series 6 when I’d have no intention of using the cellular feature?

I think if you’re the type who likea new watch every year the stainless is potentially a bit OTT. But every few years or so, I’ve had a 0 and a 4 so far, both have been stainless and both have looked like new after Ive given the case a couple of polishes over the years
Nope, other than that it works in exactly the same wayThank you. I presume having the cellular version and not using it doesn’t effect any of the functionality?
Anyone with the graphite series 6 notice that there’s less straps that seem to go as well with it? I put on my black stainless steel link strap but can’t help noticing it doesn’t blend in as well as it did with the black SS series 4? Those with the graphite, which straps are you using?
Hard to get a good pic but here you are.How weird that there was me eyeing up an S6 with SS Graphite case to accompany the space black link bracelet
You got a photo to show the contrast matey?

I do apologise. Your wallet will thank me when you get a 7 next year insteadJust to update this. I did a hard reset, or rather the battery ran down completely and it switched itself off.
Charged it for a bit and switched it back on and it’s been fine since. Back to around 50% battery use per day.
On the one hand that’s good, but on the other, I no longer have an excuse to buy a Series 6
