Looking to find a nice replacement band for my Gear 2 for my wife. She would like it to look a lot more "girly"
When I go to order a band can I order a 18mm? I figured then it would be a thinner band hopefully so it doesn't look so huge on her wrist. I read that it works with 18-22mm bands. I have never replaced a band before wouldn't it be one size?
Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help!
I tried to post a link to one I found on amazon but it won't let me because I haven't made enough posts on the forum. the one I found is called [SR White Italian Calfskin Leather Padded Crocodile Grain 22mm Watch Strap with Rose Gold Buckle] ASIN: B00CKINUPW
So I picked up the below watch band for my new Sport Gear S2, I really like the look but the clasp is digging into my skin. Any suggestions?

I ordered the below from Amazon:
https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0733B1HB1/ref=pe_3034960_233709270_TE_item
Xuexy 20mm Full Ceramic Watch Band Stainless Steel Buckle for Samsung Gear S2 Classic (SM-R7320/SM-R735) Moto 360 2nd Gen 42mm 2015 Pebble Time Round,Black
Shipping was quick as it always is with Amazon. The black ceramic watch band (20mm) fit my Huawei Watch 2 (not classic) quite well, and made a nice improvement to the sport band it came with. The tools made changing the band and removing a link easy as well. Took about 10 minutes to do everything. I think it makes the watch look great, and I am very happy for the price.
Seems to be the same band they have on Ebay for slightly less, but I did not want to wait 2 months for it.
I do not have any complaints as of yet, and would make the purchase again.
Thought I would post this so people are aware 20mm bands work with the watch, and could see how it looks with this watch.
The watch face is thema's Swift Watch Face - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.thema.wear.watch.swift&hl=en
My main concern with this watch is that the arms/grips/*whatever you want to call that area where band clip goes* is just too big for 3rd party bands to seamlessly integrate with the watch. I bought a leather strap, but the size of the watch itself is soo huge that the strap looked like a teensy thread compared to the watch. if you notice, the factory fitted strap actually has 'side flaps' type design near the clip area increasing the strap width, which at least gives a smooth look to the watch overall in terms of size..

That is what I noticed with the Milanese Loop Band I tried - far too small for the watch and it looked silly. The ceramic one is a lot thicker and nicer, and looks great in my opinion. I just found the original to look a little cheap.

I personally don't prefer the ceramic/metal straps since I sometimes have to adjust the strap on the go, which of course is not possible with these types of straps
I really want Huawei to release some straps for its watches...
It looks shiney in the photos. I'd prefer something in flat black to match the watch body. If any one finds one similar in flat black please post.
My wife has a gear fit 2 pro and the band keeps coming loose from the watch. We have replaced the band but the new band comes off also. After putting it on we tug to make sure it is secure but it keeps coming off. I read where the screws on the inside of the band--where it connects--might be loose but that does not seem to be the case here. Anyone else ran into this and have a fix? Thanks.
If anyone is looking to buy the Extreme Sports Band, you can see how it looks in real life. Also you can AMA anything about it!

Thanks! I'd love to get a couple of these bands, but unfortunately still not available here in Canada - did you order direct from Samsung?
Honestly not a bad band. Pre-ordered it and like it better than the grey one that came with the watch. Still wish it was 22mm and the M/L size could be a little larger.

Ya directly from Samsung. It is basically a prebook offer for Watch 4 series in India.

Ya! Me too... I have a Citizen Blue Angels normal watch, could have used the band interchangeably! You mean larger width wise or length wise?
This looks great for my activities and workouts. Will be ordering! Cheers
For sports I prefer elastic cloth bands because cloth helps dissipate the moisture and doesnt trap it like silicone does and my skin thanks me for using my cloth band since I made the switch.
After workouts I just rinse the band thoroughly and I am good to go again.
So, these bands are now available in Canada, through the Galaxy Watch4 Bespoke Studio - but dayum, at $50 CDN ea. + tax, I think I might just wait to see what the AliExpress band that I ordered looks like...

I've also been looking for something like the apple loop band. But in India it ain't available!

I ran the Seiko divers band on my GW3 and it looked really nice. The 20mm version for the GW4 looks way too small. As for larger both width and length would be nice.
I have the white one. I really like it. Not as comfortable as the grey one that came with the watch, but it looks way better. Better for workouts too.
