News at eleven: Dude on the internet discovers you need to buy the right size watch band…

[@l3n1x]

Did you have to go and murder me with that comment “news at eleven” ?!?!? Lmfao that shit had me rolling idk why

[@LuckyDogGaming]

I was thinking the same thing, but you’re not wrong that although the all three might fit your wrist, you need to think about where the buckle falls. 😁

[@justaweeb14688]

Still doesn’t change the metal buckle scratching surfaces

[@LaymanGamin]

They just want some one new to show off there gadget too lol. There real friends n family are tired of hearing about em 😂

[@Fuckyou1981]

[@fxrojas22]

Sounds like a common sense issue and not an Apple problem.

[@asoro_1632]

Yeah hahaha, metal band is a killer, meanwhile dude is smashing apple watch ultra witha hammer and destroy his tabel "D

[@asoro_1632]

@itachisasku on their site it is stated next to every size of the band in mm your wrist max and minimum size for it

[@ChrisMitchells_FlyingCameras]

It’s not that difficult to measure your wrist!

[@asoro_1632]

piece of rope (anykind, even a shoelace) + centimeter (school line or smth eals) you should have this at home

[@TallysVids]

I agree. Anything that requires a known size to fit properly, then surely that is down to the purchaser to first measure their wrist (very easily done) to get the correct size.

[@zeberday1]

PSA: Here's a tip, buy your size.

[@estebancortes2848]

Also, this watch was made for athletes and sports people… not youtubers using macbooks on a daily hahah also adventurers wouldnt mind a little scratch…

[@Roxasora123]

Umm, i don’t see the solution. Does buying my size would prevent scratch from that metal thingy?

[@sufyanm4661]

A steel watch bracelet doesn’t hit into the watch so I don’t understand your point here

[@bellaryraju1185]

But, this is titanium. So, it scratches a lot more than regular steel.

[@bellaryraju1185]

Thanks for the heads up!

[@artbydrwiz]

Love my Apple Ultra, no issues with it.

[@raulantonioboeta570]

If you flip it to the other side.. the problem goes away. Like remove the band and rotate it 180 degrees (switch the connector end with the other side), you’re good.

[@LCBChef18]

Big brain move. Hopefully OP see's this.

[@warrenbeer2737]

So if you got large wrists don’t buy a small size, got it.

[@dj_kenobi]

Never thought of my ultra scratching my laptop. Good tip

[@DroneManMurphy]

I really appreciate this video. You just saved me some time! I was about to return the large band because I thought the smaller or medium band would look better showing more of the little ripples but when I noticed what you said about it, scratching my laptop. That is a game changer. Thanks a bunch! Great video and thank you for saving me some scratches!

[@PatrickRambles]

Thanks man 🤝

[@pierre7191]

You not being alert to get your right size isn’t everyone’s problem, its yours.

[@gamingsimon8450]

I’m getting the trail loop

[@onefor2]

Protip: buy silicone bands or belt-like bands without metal on them.

[@jamesslaughter8666]

so what is the correct band for Samsung galaxy watch ⌚️

[@fairuzhussain9113]

Great information you shared . Now I understood. Big mistake I bought medium size and I have a difficulties in wearing it in-out. Now have to be more careful.

[@wplantz]

the best part is good luck getting someone at apple to be able to exchange for a different size band without having to buy a whole new watch

[@AmpdLSU]

Yeah you can exchange it, but since it is serialized to the whole Apple Watch purchase instead of a separate band purchase, you have to bring all of the packaging and charging puck back, then they will exchange it for the same watch but the bigger band size. What a waist of time and resources. And you’ve just got 14 days to makes that decision and find time.

[@wplantz]

@@AmpdLSU And I got mine on launch day so they said they didn't even have one I could exchange. I would have thought they sorted this sorta thing out with the fitted bands coming out a couple years ago. Too bad...I ended up with a trail loop.

[@AmpdLSU]

@@wplantz I got the orange and black trail band in the end. It was the most comfortable and light. But it’s gotten stained dirty so quickly. I do like it in the end but something that doesn’t get as dirty as easy or wear out or wear in like the sine of the fitted choices

[@TomGlander]

Absolutely perfect information. I just had to order a larger size because of the exact same issues pointed out here. Get the correct size and you're good to go.

[@AdamGonzebra]

Yeah i noticed it when i took out the band i was worried hahaha i think i will buy a different one 👍 thanks for the info 👏

[@MessiahKnight]

Umm… you do know they case proctors for the watches right? 😅 bulky bands like this one pretty much require you to use a protector for this reason.

[@TheRealDaveCast]

I have the medium/large band and the hook is on the bottom because anywhere else and it would be too tight…

[@willam-gv9fu]

Same here it’s a good fit

[@BT_Spanky]

I chose to go with the medium because of my weight fluctuations. If I had gone with a large size then whenever I dropped a considerable amount of weight then the large would be too big and I wouldn’t be able to attach the g-hook into the loop.

[@PeterDoesFarming]

Can confirm, MacBook Pro is scratched super deep from this band.

[@JSZ0729]

Trail loop is the easiest to use

[@PatrickRambles]

Yeah, it's the hoodie of watch bands. Super comfortable.

[@keithhh]

These are practical tips. Thank you sir

[@niteboatermusic]

Alpine design is a disaster if you hope to leave your watch on while computer typing - ugh

[@alex_de_tampa]

I hate this band even on the right size. I still used the band from the regular Apple Watches. It’s easily the most comfortable band I’ve used .

[@DenyTheZeitgeist]

One year later, my alpine loop failed. Apple took FOREVER to try and get me a replacement. It never came.

[@tommygraham1990]

Mine comes tomorrow! Glad I got the large!

[@PatrickRambles]

Exciting! The watch is awesome.

[@anthonyscott5134]

I’ve seen a couple of these videos now and have to admire that my Orange Alpine band fits like the one here. I have to work to get it on and off. With that being said, I bought mine when I bought my watch, both when they were first available in the Apple Store. I’ve yet to get my first scratch of any kind on my watch from the band or anything else, and I wear it exclusively everyday, even in the gym.

[@richy7346]

Dose the hook hit the watch face when pulling off or putting on

[@anthonyscott5134]

@@richy7346 mine doesn’t. If you’re worried about scratching or denting your Ultra, all I can say is, I’m extremely clumsy and hit mine on something multiple times a day, at home, while I’m out, and even on equipment at the gym. I don’t have a single scratch, nick, or dent ANYWHERE on this watch! Pretty damn amazing! If you want it, just get it! I think you’ll love it. Also, I bought a Gold stainless series 8 at the same time I bought my Ultra. Thinking The series 8 would be for dress up. Well, I found a metal band that matches my Ultra and have yet to unbox my series 8! I wear my Ultra exclusively!

[@michaelkahn3694]

Great point - Thanks

[@tangosierra2715]

I bought the large one but it’s still on the inside of my wrist and hits the table MacBook and everything else 🤷🏼‍♂️😅

[@FerPimJim]

Great video! I love the metal hook as well as it plays with the rock climbing gear style. But, if you are at the office typing, it will mess up your laptop/desk and the watch.

[@PatrickRambles]

Thanks, Fernando!
