Watch wrist bands?

What is your preferred wrist band for a watch, tracker, etc

I hate the default silicone straps most cheaper watches and fitness trackers come with and metal catch and pull my arm hair . What are some wrist band types folks like on their preferred arm piece?

Currently I have a nylon braid style wrist band on my Fitbit charge.

I like tropical rubber straps and sailcloth straps for watches.

Stainless bracelet or leather, but I’ve been wearing Gshocks mostly as of late so that’s some kind of plastic.

FKM rubber is also goated, I have one for my modified Seiko SRPD and I love it. I just don’t wear it as much because I dinged 2 yo-yos on it and didn’t wanna make it a hat trick, so I just wear my vehicles more often than not now

Ohh neat I’ve now hit a new kind of rabbit hole with a conversion kit for my Fitbit to 18mm bands and sailcloth and fin rubber straps. I guess for my watch too but I don’t even know where that is. (Somewhere in my office)

I have heard mixed things about sailcloth. Some say it’s too stiff and never breaks in, others say it’s the greatest strap material ever conceived

I mostly alternate between metal bracelet and a deployant silicone band on my watch but throw on a NATO strap from time to time.

Oh man, how could I forget nato! Love a good nato strap

Leather nato always seemed a little extra to me tho lol

What companies do you guys get your watch bands/straps from?

Usually namokimods.com
