Great heavy band at any price. $15 is a steal.
Awesome band and only $15! The first thing I noticed was the weight/heft of this band. It feels like a quality band and not just some lightweight knock-off. I just started wearing it today so I can't speak to durability. My guess is that it will hold up well. The connectors are solid and "integrated" and every bit as quality as the connectors on the original band that came with my watch.I'm not a handy guy so figuring out how many links I needed to remove was a bit of a challenge for me. YMMV. I seem to be between removing two and removing one link. The weather is turning cold so I went with removing two and saved everything for hot weather when everything swells up a bit. Getting the links out was a simple concept. All the tools you need are included plus some extra stuff in case you bend or break the bit that removes the pin -- which I did. I'm not a small detail work kind of guy. This is small work so maybe get help from someone more delicate than me. But note that I did it!I'm an Amazon research nerd. I debated getting this band for $15 against bands costing a little more and some that cost much more. I decided to take a chance that this less expensive band would have the feel of a quality stainless steel band. I figured I'd send it back if it was a lightweight or cheap feeling.UPDATE: The link that attaches to the buckle attaches with a spring loading pin. That pin has popped out twice. Once when pulling watch out of my pocket (pin stayed in my pocket so I found it) and once while putting the watch on and applying a slight amount of tension to get it over my hand (heard pin hit floor and was able to find it.) I worry that it could happen and the watch fall off my wrist or that I’ll lose the pin.

Great band
I have been looking for a chain link band to go with my series 5 gold stainless steel Apple Watch and I am so happy I finally found one. This matches perfectly with the gold stainless steel and is very professional looking. I have a small wrist so I do wish the band itself was a little smaller for a woman but no biggie it still looks good. It was super easy for me to take out the links I needed to remove. Definitely get this bronze gold if you have the gold stainless steel Apple Watch

Beautiful Band, Good Quality
This is a beautiful accessory. Once the initial installation is done, you have a real, metal watch band. There were some black specs that were on the band out of the box, but they came right off when I wiped it down with an alcohol prep. This is great for those who want to dress up the Apple Watch and make it more professional-looking. So far the metal band feels secure and durable and it looks great. As long as it holds the test of time, I can highly recommend this product.

Nice-Looking Watch Band - Perfect for my New Apple Watch Series 5 40mm
The watch band is heavy-weight - perfect for a man. It looks nice/dressy, stainless steel with black satin finish.The band comes with several spare pins and a "tool" used to remove the pins (links) from the band to resize it (i.e., make it smaller). The tool is a clever design, and would work, except the "push pin" (designed to push a pin out of the band to remove a link) is not made of high quality steel, and easily bends and breaks. Obviously, the vendor has anticipated this problem, and includes a couple of "spare" push pins. However, same problem -- these break, too; they're simply not strong enough to push out the pins of the watch band (which are a force-fit).Having broken a couple of push pins, it was obvious the tool wasn't going to do the job, and I contemplated having to take the watch to a jeweler to see if they could resize the band (which would probably have cost more than the band!) However, I hit on the idea of using a small "finishing nail" (often referred to as a "brad") and a tiny "hammer" to gently tap the pin and push it out of its link. This worked well and I was able to remove two links and resize the band to fit my wrist.So, while this is a nice band and meets expectations in all other ways, you may not have much success removing pins from the band to resize it and will probably break one or more push pins using the provided tool. However, don't despair: you can use the trick I discovered. Be gentle, though; remember, this is a piece of jewelry. Place the edge of the band on a soft wood block and gently tap the pin out of the band/link using a SMALL (jeweler's style) hammer; do NOT use an ordinary (framing) hammer as it's much too big and heavy and will damage things. Take your time and proceed with caution and this CAN be done. To insert a pin into the band, insert it smaller end first, then using a SMALL hammer, gently tap it into place (the other end is a snug fit in the link).As to durability: time will tell. Several reviewers have complained that the band "came apart" while on their wrist. However, if the pins are properly inserted into the links in the band, I can't imagine this happening. The pins are a very snug force-fit (which is why the provided tool breaks).

AWESOME! Series 6 navy blue!
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. Anyone getting this for the series 6 in blue this is a MUST! Color is almost perfect. Feels good and is comfy. Comes with the tools to remove links if to big.

Great band for the new blue Apple Watch!
This watch band was just what I was looking for. I got the new Apple Watch series 6 the nave blue with the matching solo loop band. The solo loop gave me a horrible rash so I wanted something that was still blue but a better material. This band did the trick. It is close in color but not an exact match. It still looks really good with the new blue Apple Watch! It was really simple to take a couple links off to make it fit well and included the tool and extra parts as well.
