Did you know you can use any 22 millimetre watch strap with the Apple Watch? All you need is a tiny, inexpensive adapter to convert between the standard 22mm pins to Apple’s proprietary locking connector. With just one set of adapters, you can throw on any 22mm watch band that you want in just a few seconds of setup time. Let’s take a closer look at how it works.
The Watch Strap Adapter is very simple – one end is an Apple Watch compatible mechanism, which slides and then locks into place with the same security as Apple’s own straps. The other end is a metal bar, made of two sections. These are placed around your watch strap of choice, then screwed into position using a tiny Phillips head screwdriver (provided in the box).
The whole process takes only a minute the first time you do it, and you’ll get way faster on subsequent attempts. It’s totally possible to swap between different straps throughout the day to match your activity or outfit, and it’s only marginally slower than using Apple’s considerably more expensive straps.
If you want to save money and choose from a much wider range of straps and bands for your Apple Watch, then you need an adapter like this. To place your order, check out the product pages linked below. Remember that there are two Apple Watch sizes, so choose the one that corresponds to your Watch!
