    A +1 from Mifa leather watch straps, they’re the best! I own the black and brown ones. The leather is stitched to the silicone bottom so if you sweat a ton the stitching will lift the sweat and “deposit” it a bit into the leather, in case you’re curious.

    My band (Apple leather link magnetic one) came apart on my Series 7 twice in the same day, and once it flew under a table, and the other time, across a floor, the sapphire screen survived just fine, but the fact that my Watch could’ve been gone right there is scary, even worse is that I bought a Rhinoshield screen protector 2 days prior, but Amazon sent the wrong one.

    Hello Aaron, Do you have any recommendations for apple watch cases that do not wrap around the band? I like to swim with my apple watch and being able to take the case off to dry the watch and case without having to take off the band is a useful feature for me. Right now I am only using a cheap case from Walmart that feels cheap and has noticeable molding seams. any recommendations you can give would be greatly appreciated :)

    Have you found a decent charging stand for the ultra yet ? I had a cool looking elago Macintosh stand but the ultra doesn’t fit in it. Thought about one the cheap aluminum or wood stands but those are vertical and I really enjoy looking over in the middle of the night to check the time in nightstand mode (which I honestly thought was very gimmicky when I first heard about it) so if you find one please let us know. I did find on Etsy a cool minion looking one but it ships from china and it’s 35$+ shipping again if you find a cool watch stand for
    The ultra please share with us :)

    What do you think about the new Alpine Loop band? I'm thinking about pairing it with my "old" 7 45mm (event if i'm not sure about the color combo with a midnight watch) but I read some bad reviews. All influencers say it's good, almost perfect, but those who had to pay for it does not agree. So I'll trust your reviewer point of view!

    • @thisistimmy
      @thisistimmy Рік тому +1

      I got the Alpine Loop and I like it. The fabric is soft and it seems well-made like any other Apple Watch band. It does take a lil work to get on and off tho since first you have to unhook it and the ridges get caught on the metal loop when pulling out. I do prefer the sport loop for working out like Aaron mentioned and I wanna try the new trail loop

      @Such Is Life Performance based products usually don’t feel premium. Just look at all modern running and basketball shoes, they’re all made from synthetics. If you want premium, then go for the Milanese loop or leather bands. The Ultra is marketed towards athletes and on the spectrum of performance based materials, the Alpine Loop is on the higher end imo

    Problems with CrashGuard NX. Maybe the CrashGuard NX was good for the Apple Watch 8, but I'm not happy with the one I got for my A.W. 9. The rim (the part you can change for different colors) fell off within a month or so, and after I put it back on a couple of times, it got lost completely. So I got a new rim, and it fell off and got lost even faster.

    For the best apple watch screen protector. I think that the rhino shield 3D impact screen protector is the best option. I've had it for a year and I only had to replace it last month when I accidentally took it off in the pool, but it wasn't damaged at all on either sides of the protector. I was just commenting this because I saw that you didn't even mention this product, so I gave it it's shine

Case or not, I'd never take my Apple watch in a cave or cavern either. Even the Titanium + Kevlar composite weave drysuit my instructor uses there has wear and tear from pulling himself across the the limestone rock formations in places like Ginnie Springs.
      You might sit in and office and go for leisurely walks on paved trails, but people that live active lifestyles have already had issues with damage to the watch's casing and screen barely a year since it's release.

  • @Three60guy
    @Three60guy Рік тому

    Just a note about scratches on Apple Watches. The only way to get a scratch on a sapphire face Apple Watch is to run a diamond across the face of the watch. Why? Because next to a diamond, the next softer material is, you guessed it, a sapphire. So, hitting it with items you come in contact around the house simply won’t scratch it. I have mine with a stainless steel case and in 4 years there is not one scratch on either the case or face. You obviously will pay more for it but you won’t be paying for replacements along the way. Cheers.

    I paid extra for the Titanium version of the Apple Watch 6 and it still looks brand new. This is my everyday and every night Watch. No scratches on the body or screen, Titanium and Sapphire are ridiculously hard to scratch.

    I have only had steel Apple Watches and now the Ultra since 2015 and have never scratched a screen. If you buy the aluminum Apple Watches you most likely will scratch the screen or case.
