I have what some would describe as an unhealthy obsession with smartwatch straps. Whatever watch I’m using, I like to swap out the band regularly, and I’ve amassed a huge collection of straps to fit Garmin, Apple and other smartwatches.
Had I been doing this by buying official straps from the brands themselves, I’d have had to take out a second mortgage by now, given the crazily high price charged for simple bands. Fortunately, it’s very easy to find great third-party smartwatch straps online that cost a fraction of the price of official bands.
