What type of band is that? Where did you get it?

My Gear S2 Classic with a black metal mesh band. I like how it looks and feels. A solid built metal band.
$14.50 at Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B018DQ928S
btw - a custom face I just created using Samsung's Gear Watch Designer. Cool stuff.

Yes 20mm. Regular thickness will do. Thicker is fine too, but if it's too thick it may not fit right with the strap as those heavy-duty bars are usually for big clunky watches.

Hi Joel.
Where did you get that modified strap for your s2? I've been looking for strap mods so I can get away from the plastic one supplied with the watch.
Cheers

Couldn't decide between the red and the Navy blue. Thanks for these pics,thunk I'll go for the blue!

So the classic bands work with the Gear S2?

Not impressed with this strap. Looked lighter on samsungs website. But can't complain much as I got with the promotion they had for using samsung pay.

Yea, they don't go well together. Would've been better with the silver housing.

Can you post a pic of you watch with the strap on the left? I'm very interested in that one and am curious to know how it looks. Not too fond of the mesh one personally, but that's still better than the stock strap IMO.

So the pic with the GEAR S2 non classic with the metal band, it looks like he modified an extension or bought one that allows a typical 20mm band attachment. If you look closely, you will see the pins sticking out on the first knuckle. Interesting... is this homebrew?
Obviously the author isn't sharing...

What modification did you have to do?

I bought an Original Hoco brand from Alie-Express.com. Normally this band cost like 99 euro here in Europe. I got it for like 30 dollars. Looks and feels verry great!

SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Case for Samsung S4

Found this cool case on Amazon. Really like the color combination and sporty profile. I may order the yellow/black one. But it seems like a one month waiting time!
Does it offer good protection?
I prefer the Otterbox Defender for my phones, but I am really impressed by this Unicorn Beetle Case. Does it offer good protection?
Looks like it does. The yellow is sleek as hell

looks pretty decent actually.
strange how the yellow one is $1.75, while all the other colors are $14.99
must be a mistake.
grabbed one at that price.
shipping is 2 times more expensive then the case itself
Very cool looking case.

Willing to buy spare links from metal band

I recently picked up a used SW2 and the previous owner had tiny wrists and managed to lose all the links he removed. If anyone has spare links, let me know what you want for them, since Sony doesn't sell them. I'm guessing that I need at least 2, but should probably get 3 to be safe.
Thanks!

Hey. Don't have any spare links but I thought it should be relatively easy to get a replacement band. Sony advertises different straps on their website, but you might also be able to find some aftermarket options. http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/products/accessories/smartwatch-2-sw2/features/#black

Actually, it takes a 24mm band. A nice metal one
is pricey (even on Ebay) and I really like the look and build quality of the original band.
I have 2-3 spare links. PM me and let's see if we can set something up.

Gear 2/Neo Strap replacement?

I remember reading that the Gear 2 was compatible with .22mm watch bands.
I was wondering if anyone has tried replacing the straps?

Is that a 22mm band? It looks smaller, like maybe a 20mm.

I'm not sure on the exact width of the band but it's designed for 18-22mm use.

I would assume that means it's 18mm, so will work in anything above 18mm. Thank you for the reply. The reason I asked, it appears there is a tiny gap on either side of the band where it connects to the watch. I am going to order a 22mm band, but I have to find one I like. I do like the stock band, but wish it had one more hole on the strap. It fits just a little too snug for my liking.

Thank you. That confirms my assumption. The band itself is 18mm, but there is an adjustable shim or something inside the band to keep it from sliding back and forth.
The effect though makes it appear that there is a gap on both sides of the watch band. A standard 22mm band should not have that small gap.
Thank you greatly for the photo.

Wrong forum/section man..

nice info:laugh:
nice strap!
looks like 22mm is the way to go then.
looks good to me!
All the 22mm watchbands I was using w/ my Pebble work with the Neo. Problem being, the NATO straps cover up the heart rate monitor and make it hard to charge without loosening the strap. I just got the 2 piece 22mm version of those straps and they work great. Do yourself a favor and pick up the pin remover tool to make switching bands fast and easy.

Got my strap, pretty nice if I do say so myself.

Are watch band univeral and fit the gear 2?

Can any watch band fit the gear 2 or it have to be custom made to fit it? I seen lots of watch band online for sale but not sure if it would fit my gear 2. What is it that I have to look at for a watch band?
It has to be 22mm.

Thanks... Got it from the Samsung app store.

Sport straps have arrived on Ebay for relatively cheap.

Has anyone tried them out? I just purchased a brown one for under $10. I figure it's worth a try for that price point. Much easier to stomach than the outrageous $49 Samsung wants. I guess the biggest concern is whether it'll make my wrist breakout.
I just received a blue one from ebay. Little difficult to clip in, but seems secure once attached. Band is a bit more flimsy than samsung bands. Clasp is shiny instead of a matte. I'm also concerned about what it will do to my wrist. So, I guess we will see.

At least you got yours. The vendor emailed me last week saying that it was out of stock and then canceled my order and refunded me. Could you post a picture of it?

What color did you order? I thought I was getting a dark blue and a light blue. The light blue looked like a baby blue on the listing but it is more like a fitbit slate blue.
