Been really liking the OEM Stretch bands from the Google Store. Great for daily use and sleep tracking. Pretty expensive so I waited for a sale.

Got the converter so I can be use regular watch straps. Currently have a nice distressed leather one on.

Just picked up some adapters so I can do the same. Really opens up more options for bands.

I got a cheap metal link band with a Fossil style clasp for like $10 and I love it. Makes it look more like a fashionable mechanical watch instead of a spacey tech gadget.

Been looking into a decent quality metal link band myself.

The one I got came from Amazon. The brand is Yeahxing. I was sceptical of such a cheap band but 7 months in and I have no complaints.

Around the house, I use these super cheap stretch bands I found on Amazon from one of those random Chinese sellers that changes names every week. It was $10 for a pack of 3. I didn't expect them to be decent quality, but I've been pleasantly surprised that none of them have broken or rattle or anything even after about a year of use.

Whenever I go out or work out, I put on the stock silicone strap. I'd like to pick up some more at some point; the quick-release mechanism is really well-done and makes changing bands on the fly super fast and easy, and I'd love to have more options for different scenarios. I just wish the official bands weren't so pricey.

Nevermind, circle to search came through clutch. It's the built in Adventure face in Digital mode with Digital Arcs enabled.
