Elobeth stainless steel strap$18.99 | AmazonIf Milanese loops aren’t your thing, you may find that a standard steel band does just the trick. With this option coming in a whopping 14 different styles, too, you’re sure to find a colour that can help you mix things up from the usual sporty look. It should fit most wrists, but bear in mind that you’ll likely have to adjust the links as well.

So if you want to ditch the sporty look, you can give this rhinestone-packed metal option from Bayite a try.
The band comes in three colours – gold, black and silver – with a clasp system in place for you to lock the device to your wrist. Since this is a metal band, it also comes with a tool to resize and adjust to your wrist, while also being easy to take on and off.

In that case, MoKo is on hand to provide you pretty much the same two-tone design in a range of seven alternative combinations. All of Skylet’s straps fit come in small or large sizes, with the perforations giving you lots of room to adjust and find a spot comfortable for when you’re exercising (and want that underside steady to monitor your heart rate) or sat at your desk at work.

For wrists of between 6.29- to 8.66-inch wrists, the company offers you three leather options (black, brown, blue) with small perforations covering the band. In terms of sheer style, the Cagos is our favourite.
