Got a white band from amazon for £10 and a metal one for £12.99....... Have a look!

I think the white one makes the watch appear very similar to the Tag Connected. The metal one is for more formal occasions.

That's funny. I went through Amazon last night loading up my wishlist with accessories for my future S3. Wait a second, how do you already have one?
 
How is the metal one? Is it easy to put on and take off? I ask because I have a disability called Cerebral Palsy and I have a hard time putting watches on

If you look above your post, you'll see that I provided a link for a similar band. It has the same, simple quick release pins that Samsung uses. Hope this helps

I was actually going to purchase that one but given my disability I thought that it might be too hard for me to use. I need something that is simple. I'm left handed and if I'm going to wear a watch I want to wear it on my left hand. I don't really have strength in my right hand and it's really difficult to put a watch on my left hand with my left hand. Plus I don't really trust buying things from China. They are cheaply made and don't really work. I used to have the Apple Watch and I was looking for a band that was easy for me so I could put the watch on and take off and the band that I wanted that was magnetic was $200-300 and I didn't want to pay that much for a band. I bought a band for the Apple Watch that was similar to the one you posted but the band didn't work so I'm leery of buying anything from China.
 
I love the looks of the metal band but I've always had issues keeping up with the cleaning. The synthetic straps seem to be easier to maintain, especially with multiple sweaty workouts every week.
 
I have several Fossil watches and 1 of them has the removable band like the Frontier so I tried the Fossil band on my Frontier and it fit like a glove! The only problem is the band is stainless steel silver so it doesn't look right on the Frontier but that does open some other options.

Here it is with the Fossil band on it. I like the feel of it, I prefer a black band so I may end up getting one. What do ya think?

Forgot the pic. My brain has checked out for the holiday.

Not sure which black metal band you got but the one I got has the folding style clasps which I like better for a cleaner look. Very easy to install with the quick release pins and comes with the tool to push the pins out to take some links off.

I purchased this off ebay. I love the flat one piece links. I think it matches the overall look of the S3 Frontier. Also, it has the quick release pins, which is very nice. It'll probably take a month or so to get here, but for the price, you can't beat it.

I also really like that white band, looks great!
Really like the look of the one piece links too. Thanks for posting. I'm gonna have to pick one up.
 
Anyone have experience with the mesh steel bands? They have a magnet that locks the band instead if a clasp.
 
Yes, it comes with a link removal tool which I wasn't expecting. Watch a video online of how to do it and it can be done within minutes!

Is there a way to remove the folding clasps where it says stainless steele? Is it easy to put on and take off? I thought about getting this band but I have a disability called Cerebral Palsy and I have a hard time putting watches on and taking them off so I thought that this band wouldn't be the right one for me. I bought a milanese loop black band because I thought it would be easy for me to put on and take off. I'm left handed and it's hard to put watches on my left wrist with my left hand. If anyone knows of any bands that would be easy for me please let me know.
