Customer Ratings & Reviews

I originally got an offbrand version of this band from online, but the quality was low, the band connectors were plastic and not the right color overall and it was low quality. However, I really liked the style, so I bit the bullet and got the real one from Apple and it’s better in every way. The band connectors and clasp are color matched to the Apple Watch Ultra’s case (and I believe made of titanium as well). The band is a stronger nylon that is a bit stiff at first but becomes more conforming over time which is a plus. The whole band seems way more durable and was a fantastic buy. I hope they come out with more colors in this style over time because I’d definitely get a grey or black one.

Pretty great band, I got it at the open box price which made it much more appealing than full price, but it is a great band, very comfortable and a great color. I put it on my Series 7 45 mm watch that’s green and it looks great with it.

I bought this as in open box condition but it actually looks fantastic! There is literally no difference from the new ones. Quality beyond expectation.

Comfortable and great material. I even used this at the pool and it didn't feel uncomfortable. Highly recommend it as a work wristband.

It is a really nice band. I do like how it feels Apple always doing this great

Not my favorite. I used this for a couple of weeks and never felt it was adjusted right, not matter what I tried. I may give it a shot again in the future. I do like the look. Just didn't gel with it at first. The question in this review asked by BB is: "would you recommend?" That is too subjective. Try one one. You may love it. Or not. One thing I will say, Apple products are usually better quality than all the 3rd party options.

Fit’s loosely, get’s wet and stay wet. It is nice that it doesn’t get slimy like the rubber wrist band. I would recommend this as a alternative band for going out on the town or something. Not for roughy and tumble type use.

Great update to Apple’s line of watch bands. Works perfectly with my 45mm 5 Series and unintentionally makes people think I’ve upgraded to the latest watch and they’re all pleasantly surprised to find out the new bands will work for their older watches as well

Drove 2 hours to pick up this watch band listed in excellent condition. Clearly, Best Buy has a didferent idea of “excellent” condition

This is a very comfortable and unique watch band for the new Apple Watch Ultra. I like it better than the trail loop that came with my watch. Pricey but that’s the Apple tax for you. Would definitely buy it again.

I recently purchased the Alpine Loop L for my Apple Watch 49mm in the vibrant Green color, and I have mixed feelings to share. Let's start with the positives: this band is incredibly comfortable. The soft, high-quality materials make it a joy to wear throughout the day. It doesn't cause any irritation, even during extended use, which is fantastic. The green color is eye-catching and adds a refreshing pop of color to my Apple Watch. It's a unique choice that sets it apart from the typical black or neutral bands. It's become my favorite watch band by Apple for its comfort and style. However, there's a major caveat I want to warn potential buyers about. When purchasing your Apple Watch, be cautious about the band that comes with it. In my case, it came with a small-sized band that didn't fit my wrist, even though I consider myself an average-sized guy. What was disappointing was that my local Best Buy store wouldn't swap the band for a larger size without requiring me to return the entire watch. I already had my watch set up with all my preferences, apps, and data, so returning it and starting over was a hassle I didn't want to go through. Consequently, I had to shell out over $100 more than the $899 I initially paid for the watch just to get a band that fits comfortably. This experience was quite disheartening, especially as a loyal Best Buy customer. I've noticed a decline in the quality of customer service at my local Best Buy, which has left me somewhat disappointed. It's disheartening when the level of service doesn't match the high standards that Best Buy has set in the past. In conclusion, the Alpine Loop L for Apple Watch is undeniably comfortable and stylish, but be cautious about the band size when purchasing your Apple Watch. The pricing can be steep, and my experience with customer service left much to be desired. I hope Best Buy can work on improving its service quality to ensure a better shopping experience for loyal customers like me.

Nice looking band for an Apple Watch. It is well-made and very stylish complementing the Ultra 2 Watch! It is easy to fasten, stays in place, and makes sure of accurate readings with the watch sensors. Lastly, it is very comfortable to wear.

Super comfy. Love the color. Never feels like its gonna fall off.

My watch came with the orange version of this band, which I really enjoyed, but I love this color so much more. Paired with the Apple Watch Ultra, the watch looks understated, rugged, and ready to hit the trails. So far no wear and tear and washes easily

Nice band! Material is light and porous and therefore allows the wrist to breathe. If it gets wet it is easy to dry: in an emergency grab a hair dryer for 5 minutes and you're good to go. Worth the comfort.

Great band! Its just what you would expect from Apple. The band feel as if it was made from a higher quality material which would stand the test of time. Some of the less expensive brand bands are, in some cases more comfortable, but when compared to Apple's product, it is simple to tell which band will be around for many more years.

One of the best designs for the Apple Watch bands. I tried out a bunch and by far compared to the standard band that comes with the watch this is my favorite.

It was fantastic. I loved the color and it helped keep my watch in place and sturdy for work and hiking.

Very comfortable. Easy to use once get the hang of it (after 2-3 time of taking off / putting on). The design is a bit misleading in that only about half the band shows the loops while the other half shows the plain underside. I ordered a large and therefore only 1/3 of band shows loops. I would order a medium next time. The green is nice muted color. Quality built.

Best quality best color thats a good band for apple watch ultra
