NEWS – Although there are a wide variety of bands available for Apple Watch, the LABB from Noomoon seems to be truly unique.  This band closes without using a buckle or a loop with a magnetic or Velcro closure.  LABB is made from fluoroelastomer, similar to the Apple Sport bands.  Noomoon says the material is supple, soft to the touch, odorless, waterproof, and skin-friendly.

The LABB’s closure seems to be a series of tags and openings in the fluoroelastomer material that interlocks to hold the band closed.  The openings help keep your wrist dry and comfortable, too.

LABB is available for both the 38mm and 42mm Watch, with stainless lugs in silver or black.  The band itself is available in black, white, red, blue, or green.  The 38mm band fits wrists 140-200mm; the 42mm band fits wrists 155-220mm.

The LABB band for Apple Watch from Noomoon is $53.00.

Forget the incredibly expensive Hermes bands for the Apple Watch.  With this Watch band from the TheWorldofLuxury shop on Etsy, you can have a Louis Vuitton band.  These are not reproduction or counterfeit; the bands are made from leather cut from real LV Sac Plat Bags.  While the seller says the bands are not “licensed Louis Vuitton products”, they are “handcrafted with love and special care from legally purchased Louis Vuitton bags.”

The bands are cut so that the long strap has 2 LV monograms on it, and the short strap has a floral monogram.  The LV leather will be backed with soft, genuine leather.  The bands are compatible with all APPLE Watch Series 1, 2, and 3, and they are available for both the 38mm and the 42mm Watch.  The connectors and buckles are available in black, silver, rose gold, or yellow gold to match your Watch.  Also specify the size of your wrist so your band can be crafted to fit you.

The LV Apple Watch band is $75.00 (25% off normal price) from TheWorldofLuxury shop.

If you always charge your Apple Watch at your desk, you can now add a charger to your iMac or monitor to keep your watch always in sight.  The Sinjimoru Apple Watch Charging Dock adheres to the bottom of the monitor and keeps your Watch from getting lost or damaged on your desk.

Simply place your own charging puck inside the Sinjimoru dock, then use the included adhesive pad to adhere it to the monitor, as seen above.  The puck’s magnet will help hold the Watch in place as it charges.

The Sinjimoru Apple Watch Charging Dock is $7.99 at Amazon.

A month ago, my generous wife got me an Apple Watch for our anniversary. It’s a watch I wanted, but could not justify, so it was a nice surprise. However, I wasn’t happy with the supplied watch band, so I’ve been researching different styles and prices of available bands. As much as I like Apple products, their watch bands are shamelessly overpriced. So my options are either affordable bands offered by other companies or Apple’s uncomfortable stock band. As I was surfing around the web, I came across Epic Watch Bands. No, they don’t make bands, but curate premium bands from different manufacturers from around the world.

Epic offers various styles and colors of Apple Watch bands made of silicone, metal, stainless steel, nylon, leather, ceramic and even wood! Prices are competitive and a steal when compared to Apple’s own. All of Epic’s bands are compatible with every Apple Watch model including Series 1, 2, 3, Edition and Nike+.

All wrist sizes are available. For instance, silicone bands contain 3-pieces—SM (Small/Medium) and ML (Medium/Large) bands. If Link-type bands (such as our Stainless Steel, Ceramic and Natural Wood watch bands) need to have some links added or removed, Epic provides the proper DIY tools.

Prices range from $15 on up to $70. At these prices, you can have a band to fit every mood, outfit or activity. Epic offers a 30-day money-back guarantee. Visit Epic Watch Bands for more information.
