I have a question regarding the solo loop.

i did the measurement of my wrist with the template and it said i was a size 12. But i also did a measurement of my wrist with a measuring tape and it told me my band size is a 7. Which measurement is the most accurate?

also my city is in a lock down from covid. Can i order a band online and if it doesnt fit return it for a proper fitting one?
 
There had to be something wrong with one of your methods....no way should they measure 5 sizes apart. I've used both the template and a measuring tape, and they both gave me the same size. What is the circumference of your wrist when you used the measuring tape?
 
Sounds like your printer scaled down the template when you printed it. Did you check that the rectangle on the printout is the exact size of a credit card? If it’s not, then the template is off.

That’s interesting. I just bought the 44mm Blue aluminum with deep navy silicone solo loop. I measured my wrist and it’s right at 8 inches which points to a size 12. Also printed out the tool and wrapped it around my wrist and the arrows pointed to size 12. I got the size 12 and it’s snug….bordering on tight but it’s fine. I wish Apple would make their bands larger. I barely fit into the solo loop, the sports loops are out as once closed, the bottom (or what should be bottom) sits at the 9 o’clock position on my wrist. The basic silicone sports band is fine, but I”m at the second to the bottom hole of the large band. Come on Apple, have a heart for us afflicted with large wrists:)
