The straps we’re showcasing today are Clockwork Synergy’s Cordura Apple Watch straps. Lots of colors available, and the quick-release mechanism makes it easy to change them out. You can find the straps on the Clockwork Synergy website or on their Amazon shop. The watch of course, can be found at Apple or on Amazon.
If you’re looking to replace your Apple Watch band but don’t like the looks of those prices in the Apple store, check out Etsy. Its a great place to source some fantastic styles that aren’t going to necessarily break the bank. We’ve found five fun bands for you to check out, links are in the captions of each picture.
