Sturdy, attractive, fits well
After years of using the original wrist band on my Fitbit Alta, and later having mixed success with a magnetic clasp on a metal band, I ordered this wrist band. It has a clasp like my expensive watch. The wrist band itself resembles the band on both my watches. I was able to conveniently remove a link to resize the band thanks to the included tool specifically designed to remove or insert a pin in the links. Well-made tool and the instructions were excellent. I'm a professional technical writer (created maintenance and operator manuals for airplanes). I rate the instructions as A+.

Amazing quality look
Love the band, it took less then 5 minutes to remove 3 links so not sure what people find so hard about doing it. Love the classy look it gives my Fitbit

Love the band. Removing links wasn't as easy as it looked.
The media could not be loaded. I managed to get the links out that I needed, but the tool slipped A LOT and was not as simple as I hoped it would be. Having almost child sized wrists meant taking out 6 total so it was a chore. It could also be because sometimes i have dexterity issues, so I won't blame the product 100% for that part. It was still worth it! Way better than the replacement bands I've gotten in the past that i have to adjust to the smallest hole and then the excess band flops around all over. It matches everything and is pretty gender neutral in my opinion which I DEFINITELY like. (Im not a tom boy nor a girly girl, so this was a happy medium!)

The locking mechanism secures it on my wrist better than ever
Flipping a house so the silicon bands were ripping off on a regular basis. I've been using this one for several weeks and it exceeded my every expectation. The locking mechanism secures it on my wrist better than ever, the connection to the Fitbit is tight and doesn't give out, the band is more comfortable than I imagined, the detailed paint job is impressive, and the overall durability of the band is great. They even provided a tool to remove excess links so I got the fit I wanted -- it took a bit of doing and the tool was bent and giving out by the time I finished, but it lasted long enough to git 'er done. I'm thinking about purchasing a second one just in case I ruin this one with an errant power tool. Highly recommend!Update after nearly 4 months of use: this band still looks fantastic and feels great. There's a couple of spots where it's starting to wear and one scratch as a result of a minor power tool mishap, but I'm still comfortable wearing this to job interviews and formal social events (someone has to look pretty hard to discern the skull patterns). This baby is holding up really well and I'm about to purchase one for my wife (sans skulls, of course -- she's not as twisted as I am).

Very happy, fantastic purchase.
So it's a metal, link band that's coated in some protective film. I don't know what but it's great. I've had it for a couple of months now and other than a couple of links on the bottom (where I rest my wrist on the desk and such) it still looks brand new - and I'm pretty hard on things, especially hand/wrist things because I'm always banging my hands and arms on doorways and such. Absolutely no downsides to this product! It fits smoothly and seamlessly with the Alta, the clasp functions as it should, and despite claims from people having issues removing pins when adjusting the band size - I had none.I do have bigger than normal wrists so while it technically fit me out of the box I ended up ordering a second one and adding two links to it so that I could wear it the way Fitbit recommends you wear it in order to get the most accurate readings. All of the measurements on the product page are accurate, I'm just glad I was able to add links to it.I have been very pleasantly surprised with this purchase.

Great Band!!
So I got my wife's Alta as a hand me down and decided to try this out for a slightly more masculine look.As you see I got the plain black one which is more like gun metal black...I love it! Definitely exactly what I wanted and looks much better than the stock bands that came with the Alta. I've been wearing it for over a week now and I'm very impressed. You can tell it's made to last. It seems very durable, well constructed and the clasp is super easy/holds(haven't had any issues).I had to remove about 3 links to make it fit correctly and it was super easy....not sure what the issue was with other people that had trouble. The rubbery black band in the middle of the band is actually kind of nice to have. It keeps it from constantly sliding up/down on your wrist and IMO makes it overall more comfortable to wear.Last thought...for the price, this purchase was WELL worth it.

Great Accessory Band for your Fit Bit
I have been trying to find a good band for my Fit Bit as the plastic bands seemed to keep breaking. I ordered another band that I thought would be a good fit, but it was junk. Came across this band and thought what the heck - has great reviews. Not only did my band arrive a day early, adjusting the band (taking out a few links) was the easiest thing ever (with my 1.25 glasses). It came a tool that the band lays flush in allowing you to remove the pin easily. Putting it back in after you have taken out the links was just as easy. It's a nice looking, a little heavy - but I like that because when my plastic bands broke, I didn't necessarily notice that it was missing until it was already gone and I had to go looking. This band I would notice that it was missing. Love Love Love this band!
