Apple Watch Strap Adapters

Post by ItnStln » Fri Jan 06, 2017 8:02 am

So I ordered a set of these adapters and I was wondering if anyone else used them and what straps they used. It looks like it'll fit any 24mm strap.

I'm thinking about this strap because I think it'll go good with the black Apple Watch:

If anyone has any other recommendations, I'm open. FWIW I have the Space Gray Apple Watch Nike+.

There are two different straps sizes for what version you bought. http://www.smartwatch.me/t/guide-best-a ... bands/1269

Thanks, I guess I should have specified what size watch I have. It's the 42mm, so a 24mm strap.

Nato and Zulu straps are not an option. I'd have a canvas strap made.

Yeah, as much as I like NATO straps, it won't work due to the heart rate monitor.

I forgot about those, and think I have one that I'll try. What I really want is the one on Panatime's site where they list their Apple Watch adapters, but I'm unable to find which one it is and I didn't bother sending them an email because the last time I sent one with an inquiry I never heard back from them. For some reason I'm really digging the dark brown leather:

There is one watch store on the net cutting holes in the middle of his natos so you can use them on heart rate watches. It looks like he used a flaming turd to make the hole in them.

It seems like the strap isn't wide enough to do that.
