My bands order this time.

Pretty excited...

(Yes, I got Bamboo Hermes Single Tour. Yes, I am crazy)

Interesting. I used a measuring tape and got 145mm. I ordered 4, but since that's the smallest size in 44mm, there was no other choice. I hope it isn't too big!
Oh shoot, if I need a smaller size and have to order in 38/40 I will be DISAPPOINTED! I’m also loving the braids, I’d save up for one, call it a Christmas present 😏 I haven’t measured my wrist yet. But I like what I see, just not the size choices. It’s way too late in my disease to go back to 38/40....
 
Not a new/unusual band but snagged a SB Milanese from Amazon after the event on Tuesday before they disappear for good. Getting its first wear today and daaaaaaang it’s slick looking. Breathes really nicely too. Just have to be careful not to scratch up my screen 😬!

it will take a lot to scratch a sapphire screen... be more concerned about the stainless finish.

Measure your wrist, and whenever mine gets here (like 5 or 6 weeks), you'll have an idea.

It has been pretty well documented that the DLC coating on the SB Milanese is strong enough to scratch the sapphire screen unfortunately. But, I think it’s easy enough to be careful taking the band on and off. And it’s really good looking! Maybe it’s just a case of “ooh new and shiny” but I might like the look even more than the SB Link?

After watching the videos, I caved and ordered the green Braided Loop. ETA is November 25th 😲

P.S. The Graphite Stainless in that one video looked extremely slick. If I sold all my Watch bands that wouldn‘t go with it I could easily afford it, too 😂
