Apple Watch - Extra Large Wrist

[craznar]

I want to purchase an Apple Watch Stainless Steel Graphite Series 8, however I'm having trouble finding a strap for my 265mm wrists.

Does anyone have a link to any quality third party straps ?

Apple has confirmed they don't have any genuine straps that fit my wrists.

Thank You.

Try a Leather Loop band. I get mine off eBay, they are cheap and the band are VERY long.

For the large screen (42mm) series 8 - the longest I could find via google, amazon and ebay was 240mm.

The Ocean band that is marketed for the Ultra has an extension you can buy that may work for you. Plenty of third-party versions available too if you want to save a few bucks. I don't have the extension but I bought an Ocean band from a fellow macrumors member and I am not disappointed with it, it is comfortable.

The ocean band extension is listed by apple as fitting up to a 250mm wrist. Getting close, but probably not enough.

Series 8 large screen is 45mm. Last large screen Apple watch that was 42mm was the series 3

The ocean band is only for the ultra, not the normal series 8.

sorry for the confusion... the exact model I have in my cart is:

Apple Watch Series 8 - Graphite Stainless Steel Case with Milanese Loop - 45mm case (Fites 140 to 220 mm wrists).

The ocean (and all of the ultra bands) can be used on a 45. Source - my wife wears a a 45/S8 and has stolen the alpine loop and occasionally steals the ocean band, they fit perfectly.

I checked - the Ocean band is 49mm case size, but it is a moot point as the extension only gets it to 250mm anyway.

Reach out to an etsy maker, surely someone who is already making leather bands could whip up a custom band length for you.
