Apple Watch Bands

Rkehely — Mon, 11 Oct 2021 14:29:43 GMT

Hi all,

I pre-ordered the stainless steel S7 over the weekend. As EE don’t allow you to select the band that comes with your watch I’m wondering if anyone has managed to exchange their band directly with Apple for one they would prefer? Or is it a case of lump it and pay for a new band/stick with the one from EE?

@Rkehely if you would like a different band then you need to purchase one. Apple will not swap it for you.

If EE doesn't allow you to pick the band of your choice at the time of ordering, you would need to purchase the band of your choice from elsewhere.

I pre ordered the S7 from Apple, and I was able to choose the band I wanted at the time of ordering, but a lot of other places don't allow you to do this.

The answer I expected if not the one I hoped for.

Thanks for the responses.

You could take the band you don’t want to somewhere like CEX to help offset the cost of whichever band you do want

Or eBay may be worth a go especially with it being new in box
