Best Titanium band for ultra at affordable price?

Apple needs to make an Apple Watch Ultra specific Link Bracelet in titanium, and offer both the Apple Watch Ultra and the Link Bracelet in a DLC Space Black finish...
I love the metal bands and even have owned Apple’s band, but my wrist changes in diameter during the day, plus when working out I want to tighten the band. The metal bands I have seen do not allow changing size on the fly like my Rolex watch. I would love to have a Rolex band for my Apple Watch but it would cost $1500.
Your wrist changed in size enough you need to resize the band?
Is that some type of edema thing?
There’s this one

I did read the connectors are stainless however, so dissimilar metals

LOL! Not edema, I like to wear my band somewhat loose but During a workout it needs to be tighter or HR is lost. Yes, it is enough where the band needs to be resized.
If I take exercise like long runs, I have to adjust the Watch strap. I only use the sports loop so either the material in the loop expands when it warms up or the wrist circumference changes.
What’s ‘an edema thing’?🤔
I have this one and it has been great. Currently is it unavailable, but they seem to get a couple made at a time and sell out quickly. You just have to keep and eye on it. I paid around $70 for it.

This one is a very good titanium band and is a lot cheaper than Apple. I have one for my Ultra.

I've ordered that one, I hope it isn't dubious quality. Some of the reviews are not the best. I should have ordered the Sandmarc one.I have this one and it has been great.

Apple should have included this type of bracelet with the watch instead of the awful material ones. I suppose they would have charged another $1000 extra.

Had both the black and white stainless steel bands. Ditched both of them.
1. They are heavy
2. Can't change size on the fly, tightening for exercise for example.
3. They scratch easily
4. More difficult to put on or take off. Have to squeeze hand though band and then tighten. With velcro you can open the band all of the way so putting through the hand is significantly easier.
5. Gets dirty between the links. Had to purchase an untrasonic jewelry cleaner to get all of the gunk off.
Use an international band which is light, easy to put on/off, can throw in the wash, easy to re-size with the velcro.

I would love to have one but unless I could find a Ti band that is adjustable on the fly, I will stick with my leather magnetic link bands. I need to tighten my band during workouts and loosen afterwards. My Rolex band does this so . . . . .
