Considering you bought a $1.25 band, I would be very surprised to learn it's using anything more than a cheap grade aluminum.
Got a tip for us?

That was my first thought too. However, apparently titanium (at least based on some internet searching on metal costs) is really cheap too. You can even buy 1oz slabs for $13 on Amazon. I recently picked up some titanium chopsticks for $5.
Edit: I just searched aluminum price per ounce and found $0.07. 😂
Most likely my band is aluminum. Still don’t care, it looks fine to me. Still waiting for Apple to release prettier colors on the alpine loop official band.

Can anyone confirm if the small band on an AW Ultra will be fine for someone wearing a S/M band on a 41mm S7?
Couple years late but straight to the wrist -- RSA x SS
How can you post something like this and not mention brand/model

This one in the titanium color:
URVOI Ultra Link
it feels really good and premium.. The magnet style clasp feels nice and sturdy. Urvoi is very reputable and has a history of making bands that are really close to the OEM's. I am very happy with the purchase, feels and looks great.
Wow, that band really compliments the AWU well.
Jumped from a Series 6 to an Ultra. Super satisfied!
That’s pretty cool actually. Not many pictures of them I seeNomad Rugged band today
I'm digging it ..comfy and good looks 
The Global Shipping Program is a joke. I’ve only used it twice, but both times were a nightmare. Just this past one, the tracking stopped updating after a week. Two weeks later I finally got my refund, then after about a month it showed up out of nowhere. It’s an annoying process, but at least I got a free band out of it?
Yep. It came from a seller in Seattle. I live in Calgary, Canada. The two cities are a 12 hour drive apart. EBay sent it through Chicago, somewhere in Kentucky and then Toronto. The carbon footprint of this band is embarrassing. EBay needs to do better.
S6 SS space black still going strong! Haven’t felt the need to upgrade yet.
