my NATO and Zulu straps - Samsung Gear S3

One reason I jumped on this watch (when the price finally came down by half) is that it has the same 22mm lug width as my extensive NATO and Zulu strap collection. I think I have about 50. Prices range from $3 on eBay to $20 for the Blue Shark to $35 for the DaLuca Ballistic from Amazon. I picked up a pair of quick change/ quick change pins from Amazon to make it easier to remove and go back to the stock rubber strap without a need for the watch tool. I will post more pics later.

A few more

This is a great strap from Panatime on Amazon. 22mm ballistic with a full 12 inches of strap a very rare bonus. $18. The only similar one goes for $35.

Sorry for being honest. But your foto are useless.. i cant see a bleeding strap. All i see is your face watch and traces as some sort of strap. Photo taken in dark toilet room.
I would be interested but i dont know if its me or you are just not there.

Ibera Bike Mount IB-PB6Q4

Hey guys. I figured I would do a review on the Ibera Bike Mount. I purchased the one that attaches to the stem mount.
No pictures, but I did not like it. I have a diztronic case and when inserting the phone inside the sleeve, it is a really tight fit. In landscape mode, the sides of the plastic is bunched that it would only be recommended to use in portrait mode. Was still a tight fit without the case. The phone was responsvie when using the touchscreen but I did not like the fit, especially as noted earlier.
I ended up buying Bicycle Bike Cycling Roswheel Frame Pannier Bag Front Tube Bag Phone Cell 100g Green, which can be found on Amazon. Expected delivery is in a few weeks from China but will definitely give a review once I am able to use it.
Good call on the "Bicycle Bike Cycling Roswheel Frame Pannier Bag Front Tube Bag Phone Cell 100g". I just bought one in green and for 7.95 plus free shipping its worth a shot. I'll post a my thoughts and some pics when I get it.

Looking forward to the report on how well the Nexus 4 fits into this... It's exactly what i've been looking for, but I haven't found one large enough for the N4 yet. I wish people would say what phone they have when they write reviews for these things on Amazon.
My solution is simple but practical by combing 2 cheap parts.
I have a universal bike stand, where the phone holder can be replaced to cover any phone. And I am talking for the holder that grabs exactly each phone. Before I had the holder for the Desire HD and now I changed that with the nexus holder. Example is the holder from here.

From this item I kept only the holder. The small part of base it's not needed.

sw2 w/ custom bands is best looking sw of all

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.

Smartwatch 2 brazil watchband

Does anyone have the brazil watchband or know of a site that sells the band seperately? I can't seem to find any.
Many thanks for any advice!
The "Brazil Watch Band" is part of the 'Sony Smartwatch 2 FIFA Edition' and isn't sold separately.
It is so much better than that. Go to the Sony website and look at the photos of the other fabric bands, in different colours. Not only do Sony not sell those separately, they don't sell them at all, not even in Japan. How cool is that?
I have brought the Fifa edition today and it also comes with a black strap
beautiful

Can't find 24mm wide NATO strap that is thin enough to fit between the watch and the spring bar. Anything thicker than about 1.2mm won't fit. Have only been able to find 22mm wide NATO strap and it doesn't fit properly with a gap on either side showing silver spring bar. Bought 3 straps so far and I am not happy with the fit of any of them. Be careful with thicker fabric NATO straps as they are stronger than the spring bars Sony supply and will bend/break them is forced.
Its the only thing I am really disappointed about with the SW2. Sony should have left a bigger gap between the watch body and the spring bars OR actually made the fabric straps they advertise on their website available to us mere mortals.

Have you tried place nato strap before set spring bar? Instead of directly through this gap.

Yes, I tried but I could only get one of the spring bars back in place with the thicker NATO strap. And it was bending pretty bad, I was worried it might break. Those Sony spring bars are seem pretty low quality.

Genuine Samsung tab s slim cover amazon uk

I paid 29.99 for this last year, absolute bargain for this price. Great quality.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00L222C2O/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_lZhDwb18H1ZQB
That's a simple cover, not the book cover.
For a bargain try this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/381219491853 I've found it's a bulk high quality book cover, I bought it for less than 10 euros including shipping to Italy and after 5 months of daily usage I'm totally happy with it. It perfectly matches the shown pictures and practically it's the same as the original Sammy book cover but without logos.
The difference between the simple and the book cover is that the simple only protects the screen and doesn't work as a stand, while the book protects also the back and has 4 or 5 standing positions. The official positions are 3, at 10°, 30°, 50° but I've found that you can tilt one flap even more and get an angle from 65° to 70° that's definitely stable on plain surfaces.

I didn't say it was a book cover, I already have one of these and I paid twice the price and a bit more.
I didn't want the book cover, because for one I didn't want to cover that beautiful back and two I don't like them flappy book cover/stand things.

The words "book cover" are in the title, so I thought you were confusing the models.
Just bought the Samsung official cover from old stock on eBay. Paid $10 and free shipping. Had been using a leather Moko one but it covered too much of the tablet face and the buttons were hard to find. This one is super thin and has a magnetic closure where as the Moko had an elastic strap. I was worried it was fake for the price but figured if it was I hadn't lost much. Snaps fit very tight and the whole face is accessible when open. I love it.

Accessories Stainless Steel Watch Bands - 20mm doesn't fit

I have bought two 20mm stainless steel watch bands for my 46mm Watch 4 Classic, neither have fit, wondering if we need a 19mm. Bought a Fullmoso and Acestar, both same result. I also bought a 20mm silicone sport band which fits fine. Anyone find a 20mm stainless steel band that actually fits?
I have a couple of leather straps I bought recently and both 20mm 1 is Fullmoso . I have a 20mm stainless steel I bought 3/4 yrs ago and that fits my 46mm Classic .
Might worth popping in a jewelers if any local and checking some of there straps(you don't have to buy)
Same for me as well, I brought a 20mm stainless steel watch band and it wouldn't fit to begin with, but managed to get it to fit in the end by filling both ends down on the band.
Yikes, didn't want to go that route, did another 20mm that said specifically for Watch 4, Acestar, same issue, then ordered a 19mm Fullmoso, too narrow and too much play....waiting for more to hit the market
Here's the problem... It's not 20mm
Measured with calipers and it's 19.8mm
Is the watch lugs being less than 20mm a wider issue? I don't have calipers to measure.
It would suck if I can't use all the bands I have ordered.
I ended up just taking a Dremel to two 20mm steel bands I had bought for my 46mm classic. I shaved just a hair off each side where the pin goes on the bands and they fit fine after that. It really is a tenth of a mm off or something like the OP showed.
Picked this one up from Amazon and it worked perfectly.

Indeed! The first problem is that the lugs are curved inward. So the distance between the holes exactly 20mm. HOWEVER, the distance between the lugs at the narrowest point is 19.8 to 19.9mm (like you, I just measured with calipers and it is hard to get an exact reading on something slanting inward). OMG Samsung, what a stupid move. So this could cause a bit of bind if the band is really close to being 20mm wide.
The second problem people seem to have with metal bands is that the band can actually rub against and scratch the circular case, depending on how "thick" the band is.
The third problem is that some people want a more finished look to the band to fill the "gap." To illustrate what I mean, attached is a photo of my most-excellent Casio WaveCeptor. Notice how it connects to the watch body completely.
For all these reasons, I did some searching and found a new and unique metal band for the GW4C- one that fills that gap by design. Nothing like it on Amazon, but on Ebay, there is this:

Thanks, I missed that part with my very old and tired eyes! Look forward to see how it comes out!
anyone have the exact measurement of the watch. i see a band that is 185mm(7.28 in) so with the watch length would it fit an 8" wrist? Is the watch at least 1 in long?

From pin location on top to pin location on the bottom seems to be exactly 5cm.
I bought these (mine are all black, but dont seem to be listed anymore) and they do fit: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09BVPWFZS
They were a little bit of a pain to get on as you cant have the band straight out from the plane of the watch while inserting the pins. You have to let the band lay like it will when its on your wrist, then they fit. This made it much harder than need be while doing the second pin as you dont get nearly as much play.
I tried a few others and all had the same issue of being too large and hitting the watch chassis.
Anyone get a stainless steel band to fit yet?
Using this modded Aliexpress Rolex replica. The end links are not solid so are easy to bend to fit. There are plenty of non branded ones to that should fit.
