Aero_Dave Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 So, as some of you may have read, I bought the Apple Watch. I decided I wanted a heavier Shark Mesh bracelet, over the Milanese Loop bracelet that came with it. So I ordered a Strap Code Retro Ploprof Shark Mesh Band, Polished 24mm. This one has the 'Seat Belt' buckle. It takes a little bit getting used to putting it on, but so far I like it a lot! The bracelet is 83grams in weight, 4.0mm thick mesh & has 6 micro adjustable holes. I ordered the size I needed, 127mm x 145mm and it fits Perfect, using the middle micro adjustment hole. Its nice you can order 3 different sizes so you don't have to cut any links, hopefully. I think its well worth the cost. Ordered it last Tuesday, arrived today! Dave...

droptopman Posted June 23, 2015 Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 I like the looks of this strap. I showed a picture of it to a co worker who has an apple watch and he liked it but said his was the sport version and it wouldn't fit. I said why don't you just mod it to fit....he just looked at me funny. Sent from my droptop using telepathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aero_Dave Posted June 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 Of course it will fit. 1st he needs to buy the new strap adapters. Then you can get any strap for it. Just check Fleabay. :-) Dave... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my droptop using telepathy That's some funny stuff right there, I am still amazed at the people that refuse to grasp the concept of "customize."

Aero_Dave Posted June 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 Looks better on it Dave , pray tell how long is that mesh? Does it come in XL ? MOAB, The large size is 167mm. Not sure if that's big enough for you, but they have different styles and some come in different sizes. You have to check each one on their size options. Dave...

Aero_Dave Posted June 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 So far, using the Apple watch all day the lowest I've gotten it to at the end-of-the-day is 26%. That's from 6:00am - 11:00pm. Dave... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassboink Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 The nice thing about smartwatches is that the functionality doesn't matter so much as the phone does everything. If you buy it to look nice, as is why anyone truly buys a watch nowadays, they do the job Also, has anyone noticed that society as a whole has shifted from pocketwatches, which stay in the pocket, to wristwatches, which stay on the wrist, to phones, which stay in the pocket, to smartwatches, which stay on the wrist? *mind blown* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
