    1:33 you don't need to take off the spring loaded loop to take off the Ocean Band, you just untuck/tuck it. It works like a traditional watch band.

    I regularly find the hook on the alpine loop making contact with the watch ‘bezel’ and screen, particularly if I take my watch off a bit too hastily. I’m pretty sure I’ve got a few ‘dings’ on my watch case as a result. It’s avoidable, but still something to consider.

    I opted for the white ocean band. I thought the alpine and trail bands felt a bit flimsy and were not a good match for the size of the Ultra 2. I find the ocean band better if you are active and sweat is not a problem since the rubber is easy to clean. I also found the ocean band the most comfortable of the 3.

    Got the Ultra 2 with the Ocean blue band since I loved the sport band on my old SE, and I love it (from a practical and stylish perspective). It doesn't get soaking wet while working out and getting it on is not even close to a problem at all. Very easy once you get used to it.

  • @chrisgormley7939
    @chrisgormley7939 11 месяцев назад +6

    Good review, well edited 👍 I’ve got ultra 2 with blue and orange ocean bands. I believe you’ve got the titanium spring loaded loop incorrectly installed. See 1:34. I’ve got mine set up for the loop to be permanently fixed to the upper band, then you tuck in the end of the lower band into it. You shouldn’t have to disengage the spring loaded loop, each time you take off the watch. I might invest in a trail loop off the back of your review. Thanks

    I am new to apple products, switched this year to phone and watch after years of using different android phones and watches and what is fascinating to me is how majority of people are not complaining about the type, quality, feeling and at the end pure impression of apple watch straps that you get of of the box. They are simply bad, with samsung and huawei which I used prior to apple watch your initial strap is far better in quality and visual impression. And with this 1000 € watch you get, well simply cheap looking strap that is inconvenient if you have to take it off on a daily basis.
