Took off my Green Alpine Loop for the first time today and exchanged it for my OG Nike Sport Loop in black. Still the favorite band I own. I think I’ll put this on more often as I wait for my black Trail Loop to arrive in November.
Got a tip for us?

I have the same band but it's old and started to rip where it connects to the top lugs.
As a watch expert this watch is far FAR too big for your wrist, I hope you enjoy it though but yeah…..Big Ben springs to mind
Sorry but my opinion is valid, 49mm watches on most peoples wrists look horrendous because they are simply too big and it looks awful. Take advice from someone who KNOWS watches
very nice,paired with stainless link bracelet It looks infinitely better than paired with ANY other band.
like night and day.
I think it's the only combo worth getting,unless it's strictly for sport activity sessions.
As a watch expert?! Go away!! It looks fine on his wrist. So many haters in these threads with an agenda to crap all over watches that all of us are enjoying and feel are perfectly sized for smaller wrists.
These 2 photos prove my point, you’d have to wear the Apple Watch near your Elbow for it to look acceptable in terms of size.

Browsing watchuseek.com and hodinkee.com doesn't make you a watch expert who KNOWS watches. 😂
A woman wearing a 49mm wrist watch? Seriously ? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I get invited to Geneva every year for my input , so yeah…….

Entry level Rolex gets you invited to Geneva each year? 🤣 😂 🤦♂️
An entry level Rolex that’s now worth £10,000 plus when I paid less than £4,000 for it. Hence why I know watches
The OP isn't worth 10k, grey market prices have been inflated for years. Would love to see some proof of your trips to Geneva?
I'm assuming by "Geneva" you are talking about Watches and Wonders, who's been inviting you? The FHH or which brand?
A second hand one is selling on Goldsmiths for roughly £8500 and mine is an even rarer version due to the colour as when I purchased mine there were only 2 available in the entire UK. Because I own an OP and JLC Reverso I was invited by Rolex to go one year and they invited me back ever since

If all it takes is owning an OP and Reverso to get into WW every year then a lot of people are missing out. 😂 🤦♂️
Because it is. Maybe not a lot in your view, but it is larger.

They ask how it looks. Someone tells them. Not sure what problem is.

Does look the best. But ss doesn’t exactly go with the aluminum colored titanium. But yeah beats the cheap bands that do come with it.
This is purely based on convention and culture and not on a scientific fact.
Must be hard to be stuck in conventions dictating your life..
