Hey guys,
I know that a lot of you have ordered straps for the Moto 360 from Etsy and Clover straps.
I was wondering if you could maybe post them here, as I am on the edge of ordering a strap from either one of these strap makers.
I know there was already a very small thread for Clover straps, but that just had two pictures, so I was hoping we could maybe get more pictures, to show off how cool they look on the Moto 360.
Do not forget to share your experiences ordering, receiving and installing them
Thanks so much

Hello.
I am aware of the Toast real wood stickers, but that's not quite what I'm after. I would love to know if they have anything like what's avaliable for the Moto X. I got a Krusell case for it, which has cutouts for the speaker and camera and I personally think that the leather of the case combined with real wood would make it look so great.
Thanks in advance.

it is not officially sold by motorola, but you can find fakes or real but at other stores
Being as the SmartWatch 3 is kinda modular, what are the chances a "nicer" wrist strap will eventually be available?
Would be nice to use the rubber strap for running/ working out and other more outdoors environments and be able to slip it into a more elegant leather (my preference) or metal strap option. Any news on a possible Sony or third party option like this?
I would like this too,
I've heard some rumours on some tech websites about a metal strap coming, but any concrete details are scarce.
I don't get it really as sony would be onto a real winner here if they just made some premium straps that we could buy and swap out according to our needs. The main criticism of the sw3 is that it's unattractive. I think that's mainly to do with the functional nature of the strap.
My SW3 wont arrive until Monday, so I've yet to see or handle it in person and don't know how it exactly slips into the strap. Don't know if it would be an issue to slip it into a strap that isn't at least partially rubber? What do you guys that actually have one think?
Either way, I ended up winning a Asus ZenWatch on ebay that will be my more dressy option. I really like the look of the ZenWatch, I personally prefer it over the Moto 360 or LG G watch R.
I nice looking leather/metal band option would give the Smartwatch 3 some real flexibility though. I'll keep looking to see if it happens.
Looks like the Smartwatch 3 holder will be the answer from Sony for a way to use your preferred style band. Mine arrived today just in time to hear the news. Still it not as nice as I would hope.
That holder is plastic or metal?

looks plastic, that why I'm not so excited. Still doesn't look very premium. Wish it was black metal or SS.
I haven't seen anything stating the watch pops out of the new metal model. Would be nice if you could just buy the metal band.
Here are a few additional pics I found:
Thanks guys.
So I am gonna buy the metal watch.

The metal band is interchangeable.
Available on amazon but not the band alone...

The metal wristband is to small for me, nobody knows where i can buy extra link ?

Has anyone customized the Moto 360 with a Mono Link Band (silver metal colour-24 mm) with a Dark Finish case?
https://www.motorola.com/us/motomaker?pid=FLEXR3&action=designNew#housing
Pics attached. Please help me. Does it look good, as the circular case is dark. I do not like the Light Finish circular case, hence opting for the Dark Finish case and also in love with the Mono Link band
Great, people... 60+ views and nobody cares to reply....
It doesn't look terrible, but I think it looks much better when the band and the case match.
When I bought the Moto 360 that was the band I wanted but Motorola didn't sell it yet. 5 months have passed and Motorola insists on not selling it separately. I really wished I could buy one.
Just wanted to let people know that after the clasp on my watch band broke and not really willing to pay $89 for a lime green replacement, I took a shot with a company called Shapeways that was offering a 3D printed housing that was compatible with a 20mm watch band.
I've been using it a few days so far and I'm really happy with it. The housing was $18.99 with shipping and I got a silicone rubber band for less than $10. The housing takes about a week to make before it ships and the one I got was flat black and looks good.
All in all, a good replacement and $60 ahead without having to go acid green.
Here is a link http://www.shapeways.com/product/XP...oJE_1sU8OG3f1xZ8hoCHgvw_wcB&optionId=58575197
Thanks for the info mate but where can I choose the silicone rubber band?
Any standard 20mm watchband will work. Go to a watchstore an buy a watchband there or get it from some online store like Amazon.
This is the one Igot from Amazon. Link: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B017TDWDSM?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00
Would you mind sharing some photos of the watch in the housing? I have been interesting for awhile but unwilling to pull the trigger without seeing the SW3 in the adapter. Thanks

Here's a quick photo of the black matt housing.
I bought original Sony wrist strap adapter for 35$ and attached the old watchband black metal from my SmartWatch 2 ...

Hello everybody. I'd first like to say that I've long read through the forums like most Internet travellers but only now have decided to sign up and post for the first time.
I just bought a huawei watch and love it. I've hopped between samsung tizen based watches and Android wear for the past year (3 tizen, 3 android wear, this is the 6th watch now!) and I feel like I've finally found a permanent watch... atleast for the next 6mo-1yr maybe hehe.
I now want to commit to buying a bunch of watch bands to customize my look. I have some leather and stainless steel bands coming from ebay already, but i want to get some nato straps too. The bands I've ordered flare out from 18mm to 20-22mm, but ofcourse nato straps dont do this. I've scoured Google search results for in depth discussions regarding wearing nato straps on the Huawei Watch but haven't found any discussing the thickness of the bands and how thick you can go. As most of you know the lugs are only 18mmy wide and I feel like an 18mm wide nato strap will be too thin on my wrist. I've seen the random post here and there by people using a 20mm or 22mm strap that kinda fits but bunches a bit at the lugs, but they never go into detail about if all 20 or 22mm straps will work. Is there anybody that uses nato bands regularly on their huawei watch that can give me their insight? Shipping will take forever so I want to order the right sizes first go around. Thanks!
