If you’re looking for something different than Apple’s own leather bands, Nomad’s option is beautiful and unique.

Company: Nomad
Product: Strap for Apple Watch
Price: $119.99
Compatibility: 42mm Apple Watch
Website: http://www.hellonomad.com/products/strap
Date: Oct. 19, 2015

What’s Hot
Made with beautiful, unprocessed leather that will age and develop a patina with time and use.
Designed to last with nice touches like reinforced eyes and heavy duty, two-tone stitching.
Truly feels like a leather watch band – thick and substantial with true character.

What’s Not
The natural leather look might not be for everyone.
No lugs options to match the aluminum Apple Watch Sport.
