Mod pics of Coach Apple Watch Band and/or opinions please! :)

Thanks for posting, I was thinking of trying the 38 on my 42 as well. Does it stay in place? My only fear would be if the band wasn't securely attached to the watch, would it come off? I'm really surprised they don't offer both sizes. I know a lot of women to have the 42 and prefer the larger watches. I just went through all the bands, and don't see a single 42 available.

The attachment is super secure since both the 42mm and the 38mm watches have the same 'connection' size (those 3 black/silver bumps on the bands).

My only qualm is that the 38mm band will be a little smaller around the wrist on a 42mm watch because the bigger watch piece is taking up more space than the 38mm watch would! If you have big wrists I wouldn't recommend using a 38mm band on a 42mm watch.

I know...every time I hear a truck I get excited. I think UPS gets here late in the day (post 4:00pm), but I keep hoping.

I did the same thing all day yesterday! He didn't come until 5:30. Brutal

So my watch arrived about 7:00pm yesterday....and I don’t like it. The Gold Aluminum is rose gold, and goes with virtually nothing. I don’t know what they’re thinking. No Apple bands match other than the two sports bands they make for it I tried all the bands in the Apple Store) and neither do the Beechwood or Chalk Coach straps. The rose gold looks ghastly with the red edging on the Chalk band (my SA agrees) and the Beechwood is even worse.

I’m toying with exchanging the watch for a stainless steel casing, but it comes close to doubling the cost and includes a red dot I hate, so that doesn’t seem to make sense.

I have the Black Tea Tose band coming, and I just exchanged the Chalk band for Melon. My Watch looks good against both the Black and Melon Rogues, so I think the straps should be fine. I’m hoping both straps arrive next week before we leave on our trip. If they look good, great. Otherwise the watch and all the bands are going back.

It’s definitely not love - more like meh, might be tolerable. I swear, nothing other than the spirts bands has really matched this new “gold” aluminum.

I don't think it clashes, but I'm not sure how I feel about it. what do you think?

Edit: It's a no. I've learned the hard way over the years that if I don't love something at the outset, it never gets used. It's going back tonight. Also, that off-center rivet in the yellow flower would make me crazy.

That rivet would haunt me too.

Some things are meant to be.

I went to my favourite store to return the Melon Tea Rose, happened to ask if they had any other bands and my SA said “just one special order that was never picked up in 1941 Red.” I knew it was meant for me before I even opened the box.

You can't see if from the picture, but there's the teensiest individual little leaf you ever did see behind the cherries. I die.

It looks ridiculously cute with my Cherries wallet.

Thank you! Congrats on the find. It is super cute and I'm soooo jealous.

Thanks. I didn't even know this one had ever been made. I can't even find a picture of it online.

I have the Rexy. The leather was very stiff when I first got it but it's nice and soft now.

I really wanted the Tea Rose one but my watch is the bigger size (42mm) and Coach doesn't have them in that size.

The small 38mm watch bands fit the larger 42mm test it out with a cheap silicon band from china and see if you like the proportion.

Thank you for your opinion!

I had second thoughts after seeing a band with better rivet placement in store, so here she is.

I still love the red band with cherries, but as I thought it does tend to get caught on sweaters so I'm careful to wear it with shorter sleeves or non-knits.

I have this band in black and wear it almost everyday. Enjoy!

All these pretty mod shots are making me want a tea rose band. I don't have anything in tea rose yet and this could fit the bill.
