Straps

[1adam]

I want the brown leather strap but on the silver watch. Doesn't seem to be an option. Will the Huawei Watch fit standard watch straps or must you buy from Huawei?

Might a brown strap from the Moto 360 fit?

This is one of the few straps I've seen where it actually flares out like the black leather huawei uses, so the band is 18mm but actually looks more like 20mm but unfortunately the reviews are not good for it.

I purchased a Nato Zulu band from strapsco and I like it just wish huawei would of gone with a 22mm band, because a lot of the 18mm bands look like for women.

i bought the black Huawei Watch, and have seen some black watches with brown leather straps and really like the look...im currently doing some searching for good brown leather straps!

Quick update, ended up ordering this Clockwork Synergy band from Amazon.

I have had a few of their nato bands which have all been great, so figured I'd give a leather one a shot!

Also was a MAJOR plus that it has quick release pins!

I too thought the 18MM bands were way too small. I bought a 22mm band and notched at the top to fit into the 18MM lugs. See picture here: http://forums.androidcentral.com/huawei-watch/629729-22mm-band.html

I was able to get a $13 rubber 22mm strap and made my own cut outs. Looks good! Not as professional a cut but it seems to be okay and fits great. Now I have a sports watch due to this strap. Great alternative to my stock black leather and stock silver metal band

Reporting back (with pictures)...
In the end I picked up a couple of 18mm brown straps from this store. https://www.watchstrapstore.co.uk/leather-watch-straps/18mm-leather-straps/brown-18mm.html
I fit it myself with no special tools but a blunt knife to hold the pin whilst I slotted in place.
I really like the combination of the silver chassis with the light brown leather band on the Huawei Watch, which is the look I had wanted from the Moto 360. Yes my bands do not fan out wider after the frame like the Huawei ones do... but I do not think it makes any difference to the look or feel.

Nice! I like the look of the brown a lot!

Should have my brown strap for my black watch in the next 2-3 days so will post upon arrival!

Killer glare on the face, but the band looks great! My only thing is, with a watch like this it should have been at least a 20mm strap...

Got some red silicone bands too. 22mm bands, had to cut the tips to match the 18mm lugs. Loving the color!

Got this one off eBay. I really like it, and it is more beefy than I thought.
