Best Band Type for Daily Driver?

[jaybar]

Hi

Have SB Titanium. What band type is most convenient for daily use? Currently I have the leather link and sports loop. I am avoiding the Milanese Loop b/c it can scratch the watch if not positioned exactly. Hand coordination issues and vision issues preclude handing that band in a way that won’t scratch the watch, even though I like the band.

Will either the sports loop or leather link serve as a “daily driver”? Other band types?

Are their SS bands that are easy to get on and off (open and close) I should consider?

Thanks

Their SS bands are nice. I have the space gray version. I also have a nomad leather one and a few sports bands. The silicone solo loop was by far my favorite… until it broke from constant chlorine pool use I suppose… now I use the woven solo loop. By far the most comfortable thing I’ve worn. I wear it everyday.

I have my watch on 22 of the 24 hours. No issues with it. highly recommend

Which SS band do you have?

I really like the leather link as as daily driver with the SB titanium , but I wonder how suitable it is on humid NYC summer weather?

I find the sport loop rather warm and the sport band unsuitable b/c my wrist sweats.

This leaves the Milanese Loop. Has anyone used it without scratching their watch?

My wife regularly uses the graphite Milanese Loop with her Space Grey aluminum series 4. I haven't noticed any scratches and she's not terribly careful with her watch.

I just got a titanium Series 6 with the graphite Milanese, but it's only been a few days, so I have nothing to report. However, I'm much more careful with my watch than my wife is with hers.

I really like the black Nike sport band. I have a Space Gray watch, so the colors match pretty well. It’s also got “sweat holes”, so it’s like an improved version of Apple’s band it came with.

I mix it up, but if I had to pick one, it would probably be the sport loop for comfort and adjustability. If the 44 mm came one size smaller, maybe I would choose the braided loop, but size 4 is too loose for working out/measuring heart rate consistently.

Sport loops the choice for me although the black Nike sport band works for me also. I like the infinite adjustability the sport loop offers...
