Well at least you gave it a good amount of time to try it out.
Got a tip for us?

So I've got a S10 Slate Ti on the way and was at an Apple Store today and gave the Ti Milanese a try because I love the look. It was on the black Ultra they had on display and, after a bit of adjustment, I found it to be way more comfortable than expected. Usually I opt for softer, non-metal bands but this one intrigued me. Unfortunately there were no "free range" 46mm Ti's on display that I could swap bands with and, given that the store was pretty busy, I didn't want to bother an employee by asking them to find me one in order to do so. So my question is, does this band actually work with the S10 Ti or is it too rugged looking? That said, I've never tried the regular Milanese as I don't particularly care for magnetic bands and think they look a little too much like Jewelry for my taste.
Follow up question, anybody by chance have pics of the black Ti Milanese on a S10 Slate Ti watch? That would pretty much answer all my questions haha. Thanks!

Right. Not the ideal look but I don't think it's that bad. That said, I canceled my order for the Slate Ti anyway haha. Got caught up in the Black Friday deals but I think I'll be rational and stick with my S9 Al. For now... 😜
I just got mine last week and it's great. Definitely don't feel the weight to it and I prefer this clasp over the magnetic one.
I was thinking of getting same combo instead of link bracelet. How is color match? do you like it?
Thank you.

Thank you. It really looks good, I will go with same

I got the Ti colored one for my Ti colored U2 and I really like it now that I got the hang of adjusting and securing it. I will only be wearing it for night out / meeting mode as I much prefer my trail loop for most stuff and ocean band for other work. Nice band though, crazy light and really comfortable.
Probably the best band that I’ve ever had for AW. Light, breathable, perfect fit. I’m using it 24/24: daily activities, running, sleeping.
Just got the Ultra 2 yesterday. It was $80 off at Best Buy and I had $500 worth of gift cards. Liking it so far. I also have the Series 10 Jet Black 46mm. Plan on using both.
It really is a stunning band and it’s my favourite one ever released.
I love how breathable it is and its been perfect for sports but I do worry about it scratching the watch’s sensors back and also the durability of the end where it’s soldered by two small points onto the band attachment.
Those two tiny solder points don’t look durable and I’d like to see someone stress test this band.

It won’t. The sensor window is the same sapphire crystal as the front display. Titanium isn’t going to scratch that.
That seems like a weak spot prone to issues. I just got mine a few weeks ago and love it. I wonder how much stress is required to cause this to snap off. I would definitely bring this to an Apple Store for them to examine.
Even for Apple, $199 for a band is outrageous! Got an eBay knock off for $20 and it has several advantages over Apple. Color is perfect and no scratches after 1 month. Apple band is very difficult to latch, need perfect alignment and it’s a struggle to lock. The links on Apples band are long so they don’t wrap around the attachment link smoothly due to their length and sometimes when removing the band it hangs up on the attachment link. The knock off links are short so they wrap around nicely, never hang up and latches easily.
