How to install your new Stainless Steel Mesh watch band

This video will show you how to install your new watch band:

As this is a single-piece band, you should take extra care when installing or removing the band from your Apple Watch. Adjust the magnetic clasp to make sure the band is at it's longest length before putting on or taking it off your wrist.

Metal piece should be on the bottom of the watch

Important: Please remember to attach the band to your watch, with the metal middle piece on the under-side of the watch. When the adapter is properly inserted into the groove you should hear a soft click as the watch locks onto the band. If you put it the wrong way around or the band does not "click" in, the band is probably not attached correctly and your watch may fall off!

We recommend you double-check that the band is correctly installed before wearing it.

Due to the loop design, many customers feel that they need to wear the watch band tightly around their wrist. That is not necessary and like all watch bands there should be enough gap to easily slide a finger between the band and your wrist.

Do not over-tighten: over-tightening the Stainless Steel Mesh can result in unnecessary stress on the anchor adapter or the magnetic piece. This is the most cause of band failure with these types of loop designs.

How to clean your Stainless Steel Mesh watch band

All watch bands will get dirty over time. Dust, food, sweat, lotions and more can affect the look of your watch band. How often a band needs to be cleaned will depend on your situation, but we recommend cleaning as necessary but at least once every 2 weeks.

For this watch band:

Wipe the band clean with a nonabrasive, lint-free cloth. If necessary, lightly dampen the cloth with fresh water. We do not recommend using any type of soap, toothpaste or other abrasive material as that can affect anodized coating (affecting the color of the band).
If you used a damp cloth to clean, make sure you dry the band (with a different nonabrasive, lint-free cloth). Due to the difficulty of reaching all parts of this watch band with a cloth, we recommend also leaving the band to air dry.

For additional information, read out general watch band cleaning guide.

Special Care Instructions

This band's color is anodized (not painted) on stainless steel and then coated with a clear protective layer. To keep the band in top condition, avoid:

Rubbing the band against a hard material (such as metal or concrete), as that might scratch off the protective coating or the anodized color.
Environments with chemicals (eg. hairdresser) that might break down the protective coating.

While we don't cover such wear-and-tear damage, if you treat the band like your Apple Watch, this band will continue looking great for a long time.
