Guys im thinking of ordering a Sony SM2 on Friday but am not sure which strap to go for. My options are Silver metal, silicon or Fifa colours. Any feedback would be appreciated. Cheers
Depends on use. Those with silicon straps are the sports models which is why they come with a code for Runtastic Pro. Although I use the black silicon band because I run, for looks I prefer the metal straps. I couldn't possibly comment on the Fifa Colours.

The black metal strap that came with mine was way too heavy. I replaced it with a 24mm nato strap and it's nice and light now. A search for "24mm Nato straps" will give you a variety of styles and colors.
Original leather strap - black ... feels nice, looks nice.
Thank guys

This is my first choice for N4: Silicone/ Gel case.

It's a candy like case
The color... well neon blue or baby blue or something like that
It's not as slim as a hard case... But my N4 have a better protection

I like my white dbrand skin and white ebay case combo. Gives me the white phone feel without the wait/unicorn hunt. Plus its protected.

I came across some hybrid cases on ebay with pastel colors (also in black and white and other combinations). The pictures online look nice, though I haven't seen these in real life.

Only reason why I haven't got it is I wasn't looking for a hybrid case.
▼▼ I have This Hard Shell with Leather Flip Cover:
▼▼ Also have the same TPU one as OP...! Really Nice...!
▼▼ And this Hard Shell One too:
Who agrees? Who dosent? With a nice fossil leather band for 10 bucks. Better or worse than pebble steel? I think better. Pebble steel has more bezil on bottom side, looks tacky. Anyone but a metal band for sw2?
Its hard to compare. I think it depends of bend. I purchase sony branded leather bend and its look even worse then rubber one for me...
I got a black leather one which made it look good, but a little too professional. Then I got a beige nylon strap which looks really good. I'd recommend nylon.

Agreed, I bought a cheap brown leather strap for mine on ebay and it looks great, definitely prefer it to the rubber strap that came with the watch. I might try a metal strap next
.
Fossil bands are 5$ at fossil outlet. Everyone post pics of custom watchbands on ur sw2. Shining I love pics of sw2 with 3rd party bands!
I'm all about the NATO straps on mine.
I have one of the sliver SMW2
I find the sony silver metal bracelet, to me rubbish
does not curl enough around my wrist to be fitted right, and if I take another link out it wont fit over my hand as the release catch only opens half as much as a regular watch strap
I have big hands but small wrists :/
I have this coming
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/181266881...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
and the official sony black leather one too, tried to cancel that but was to late
but now I'm reading about these Nato straps ?
Just ordered the black and black & red straps from this seller.
http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=221468144762&alt=web
Look quality.
Any idea if it will fit through the gaps between the watch and spring bars?

I've cancelled the Hirsch strap to see what the outcome of your strap is like.

Has it arrived yet ?
Not yet. Mid week and no, I didn't think about the fit ?, hope it's OK. They are standard 24mm though.

What's the best method of unfitting / fitting straps?
I've ordered this for strap removal

Judging by the looks of that tool I think an old electrical screwdriver I have lying around will suffice. Failing that a paper clip.
Better image, note notched end for pushing back the spring bar

Almost sure that it won't.
the gap is quite tight, this 1mm think fitted ok, could go a smige thicker, but a 1.5 will stand no chance

Where did you find the metal one that cheap???

Recieved my strap this morning.
Ordered the black one.
The seller messaged me to tell me he was waiting for some material supplies, apologised & offered to refund or provide another half price so I snapped up the half price deal with a red & black strap.
Glad I did, the quality is excellent & the leather looks (and smells) really nice. Stitching is nice & the fit is perfect as when you order he requests the circumference of your wrist so it's a custom fit.
You was right, the strap would not fit with the stock spring bars but luckily the seller provides 2 slightly curved bars with each order which allowed the slightly thicker leather to fit snugly.
I have this nice mid brown Hirsch liberty on mine now
suits it well, back of strap is not the best as where ever it was store before O bought it was warm and dry so I had to give a treatment with dubbin, all good now.

I went for black with a black silicone strap. I've ordered a different strap from Amazon which is black silicone in a tire tread pattern with metal running through the upper parts of the strap though to make it look a little more interesting.
Heavy Metal
I searched everywhere for the absolute best price and it came down to either the black metal for $150 flat or the black TPU for $136 + shipping at the time. Lately I've seen the black TPU hovering around $119 + $5.00 for shipping. Needless to say after realizing I was not going to find a decent metal band for $10 - $15 anywhere I went with the stock HEAVY METAL black.
I've got to say it does look super cool. I got boring always buying the varying chrome and silvers as dress watches. Now I've got my classy dress watch, my everyday knock around automatic watch, and my casual yet sophisticated black heavy metal Sony SmartWatch SW2. I look at it this way - if my wife and daughters (chicks in general) can have a million purses and pairs of shoes then I can have a watch (or toy) for any occasion.
I've had several people ask me, "is that the watch you can get your email or messages with?". Especially when paired up with my Xperia Z Ultra.
I just wish this puppy did more sensible things, that I don't have to pay an average of $3.00 per app, and came with more customization features out of the box.
There was only two choices when I got mine, black or black.
I got black (with a metal strap).
Using my smartwatch for all occasions now, just change the watch face accordingly.
Also got other straps for different occasions. If you go with the NATO style straps there's no messing around with the spring clips. Changing straps takes all of 30 seconds.

Anyway, the Silver version doesn't exist at the time when I bought the SW2.
Even with the new Android Wear watches I still think that the SW2 it's the most beautiful and elegant SmartWatch
I've got the black silicone one, and i'll buy this maybe : http://www.ebay.com/itm/261154299564
This is a step by step video tutorial of how I replaced my Samsung Gear 2 plastic strap with this new 22mm black matt stainless steel strap for the full metal feel to my hand! I bought it very cheap from ebay!
I always wanted a black steel strap and not a silver steel one as I seen most people buy.
It doesn't matter that the body of the watch is silver as the default color of the plastic strap Samsung chose for the watch is black!
cool

I wouldn't say that. I still didn't scratch it, but I am very careful, all the time.
