If you are looking for a band for your Apple watch, well here is something that you can consider. While the regular bands can cost somewhere around $69, another alternative can be considered. These are the link bands made from stainless steel from Hyper. This is something that can be really worth considering.
The material used for these bands is the same that is used by Apple. The 316 stainless steel band comes in two colors, black and silver. Though these designs look similar to the bands that Apple makes, however they are not copied. The links on the band is styled in the similar fashion which is a traditional style for such kinds of bands. For the masculine look, you have bands design of 42 mm, while for the feminine look, it is slimmer and the design is around 38 mm.
When you look at the band model of 42 mm, you will see that the stainless steel has a brush effect along with small accents of stainless which is polished on every link, the 38mm bands also have the similar kind of effect. Both the sized bands come in both the colors. While people may think that these bands may not be as good as the one’s you get from Apple, well you will get a pleasant surprise. They fit really well and are a lot cheaper and economical than the Apple bands.
The difference between the 38mm and the 42 mm when it comes to the buckle for deployment is that the 38mm band has a buckle that is hidden and the buckle itself has a linking pattern. That is not the case with the 42mm. Another difference is that the 42 mm has a fold style that is single, however the 38mm’s fold style is a threefold.
