I got the Hoco SS link bracelet today from Amazon $40. I like it. Seems pretty well made and it included the lugs which use a standard Philips head to take apart allowing you to use any watch band, which is nice. So I put on a couple of cheap Walmart bands, a black leather and a standard Casio Sport either of which I don't know if I'll keep.View attachment 558152View attachment 558153View attachment 558154

Ps. If you notice the time on my watch, it didn't take long to take the bands off, take the lugs apart, switch bands, and get a picture!
What size bands did you get?

Thank you for telling me about the Hoco bracelet. I was just about to purchase a third party adapter and didn't realize screws on my Hoco band could come off. Lol. Duhhh! You just saved me $20.

Lol, glad I saved you some money!! I wasn't sure if they would come apart when I ordered it, but assumed they would. And it's nice they used Philips head instead of Apples pentilobe heads. 38's will take up to a 22mm band and 42's will take up to a 24mm band.

By the way, you only have to take one screw out of each lug to get it apart.
 
Horween leather band from Etsy. Using lugs from Apple Classic Buckle so the fit is perfect.

01silver4,

The old instructions I have are for my Mac, but I can use either my iPhone or my Macbook Pro which ever is easier.

I am using Photobucket as my host site for the photos.

How did you do that? This is even more frustrating that other people can do what I cannot.

I can only deduce that "Crazy Matt" is a code name for Merlin or some other wizard.
