Metal Apple Watch Bands
Metal Apple Watch bands in stainless steel
Almost all our metal bands are stainless steel, most of them 316L, the grade used in many watch bracelets. What really changes from band to band is how it's built, and that decides how it feels on the wrist and how you size it.
Five ways to wear metal
| Type | How you size it | What it's like | Start with |
|---|---|---|---|
| Link bracelet | Remove links with the free tool | A classic watch bracelet | Kyra, Arya, Iola |
| Jewelry chain | Remove links, closes with a jewelry clasp | Bracelet first, watch band second (Nova weighs 80 g) | Nova, Themis |
| Mesh | Slide the buckle to any point | Light and flexible, 34 to 39 g | Spyridon, Vicenza |
| Magnetic links | The closure adjusts on your wrist, no tools | The quickest to resize | Stella |
| Cuff | Nothing to size | A statement piece | Astra (26 g), Dux Cable Cuff |
Looking for something lighter? See titanium bands. Prefer a single colour? Go to gold, rose gold or silver.
Getting the size right
Turn your watch over: the case size is printed on the back. Then pick:
- Size 1 for 38, 40 and 41mm cases, and for 42mm on Series 10 and newer.
- Size 2 for 44, 45, 46 and 49mm cases, Ultra included. The original 42mm Series 1 to 3 also takes Size 2.
Link bands arrive long. Every order includes a free link removal tool, and most bands fit wrists from about 145 to 205 mm. Mesh and magnetic bands adjust to any point without tools.
Sensitive skin
Stainless steel can contain traces of nickel, and each product page says so. If a band irritates your skin, stop wearing it and tell us. We refund it or send a nickel-free silicone or nylon band, whichever you prefer.
Questions
Can I get wet wearing it? Hand washing and rain are fine. Dry it afterwards, and take it off for the pool or the sea to keep the finish bright.
What does the warranty cover? The 12-Month Warranty covers defects like a failing clasp, a link or pin coming loose, or plating peeling. Everyday scratches aren't defects.
What if it doesn't fit? The 100-Day Guarantee covers the wrong size, colour or style. We swap, credit or refund, and usually you don't need to send it back.
