Post your Pics of your replacement band...

I'd love to see some replacement band options for the Gear Live.

I know this is not what you are looking for... but the fact is that the integration of the rubber strap is so nice in my opinion, I'm not going to change the strap. Aside from that, you would have to find something with the same exact profile for it to completely integrate with the flow of the case and lug area... and that may be sometime down the line... if ever, that a 3rd party or Samsung will produce replacement straps. The shelf life of the watch itself may not justify doing all the tooling that would be necessary to produce replacement straps that are a perfect fit.

I posted this in another thread, but here's one.

I mostly agree with you, Werza.

Where did you obtain that particular band?

Thanks! However $50 is a bit more than I'd like to spend.

I'm sure you could find something less expensive. Just make sure it's a 22mm width band and has pins provided (or buy your own pins).

Try Walmart, they have stainless steel bands.

Any chance you could post or send me a picture of the watch with that band on your arm or anything? I saw Jerry Hildebrand's picture of a replacement band on his watch and agree with his comment that the way replacement bands don't really match up makes it look a bit funny. The $50 doesn't scare me, but I'd rather not degrade the upper appearance of the watch even if the band otherwise looks great.

Here you go. I think it looks okay, personally. The trick is to find a 22mm band. A lot of bands are 18mm, but are designed to fit a watch between 18-22mm. One of those would look pretty bad, I think.

That looks really nice Jason...I think I may have to get that band after all...

 

[BillLee3]

Yeah, it looks pretty good. I ended up getting a Hadley Roma MB5616W for $24.95 at It's About Time. Pretty similar fit:

I just bought this band. Do I need any tools to put it on the gear live?

Not to go off topic...but dig that watch face. Any tips on where to find it? Customize? Thanks!

Here are a couple of mine

Stainless (eBay)


Brown leather (Amazon)




Black Leather (Amazon)


I alsu used a stainless bracelet from a Breitling watch I have which fit and looked good but went back to the cheap eBay stainless as the 2 tone matched better.
