Anyone have any experience with Saturn bands? Looks like they have cool colors but I was wondering about quality?
 
I’ve wanted to try these, but I have the 41mm watch and there are like no colors available in that size, which is annoying. Some of us have 5 inch wrists here.
 
I’m using one now and so far so good. They aren’t as thick as Nomad bands but they are a good substitute. I’m going to order more colors.

Are they soft? I am thinking of getting the sport bands that have all the bright colors.
 
For anyone else looking for Saturn bands, which are absolutely awesome, they are going out of business and selling off their inventory. I was about to buy some more at their overpriced amounts, but was alerted from a Reddit thread that you can get them directly from Aliexpress. Sure enough, there they were for like $2.50 each. I grabbed a bunch for just over $10 free shipping and just ordered some more this morning. Apparently, as long as your orders get through US customs by May 2, there will be no tariffs on them. They had them shipped to me in about a week. In the picture below, you can see the original Saturn bands, branded one in their own packaging versus the OEM ones shipped from AliExpress. Same exact bands, same exact quality.
