hi Dave Taylor here again and I've had
0:12
my Apple watch for a couple of months
0:14
now and I gotta say as much as I like
0:16
the watch I'm really bored with the
0:18
watch band I mean look it's one of those
0:21
black plastic ones and really not very
0:24
exciting
0:25
so when nomads sent me their fancy
0:28
leather strap you can see here nice
0:32
brown leather I was very excited
0:35
ironically though I couldn't figure out
0:38
how to change straps so let me zoom in
0:40
turns out that there's a little secret
0:42
button on the back of your watch that
0:44
lets you switch it and you push the
0:47
button you slide the watch band out you
0:50
put the new one in
1:03
I'll do the same thing on the bottom one
1:08
and momentarily we will have a watch
1:18
Apple watch with a much nicer new band
1:21
on it so this is the strap for Apple
1:24
watch from Nomad now let me tell you a
1:27
little bit about the strap and I'll zoom
1:29
in a little bit so you see a little more
1:30
it's leather it's two-sided I mean you
1:34
can't actually do it the other side
1:36
which is kind of too bad because I like
1:37
the darker color but like any true
1:40
leather product it's gonna darken over
1:42
time I've been wearing this for about a
1:44
week and it's already a little darker
1:46
than what I pulled it out of the box the
1:48
lugs here are stainless steel which is
1:51
nice it has the holes here are actually
1:55
reinforced which is important because
1:57
otherwise the whole band ends up
1:58
stretching as you find the one that
2:00
works best for your wrist they have what
2:03
they call two-tone stitching when I look
2:06
at it I don't see two-tone but that's
2:08
what they call it
2:08
and here's the important part is that
2:10
the buckle you can have either be black
2:13
or silver to match the color of your
2:16
watch now here's the bad news if you
2:18
have a 38 millimeter Apple watch this
2:20
won't work with it this is only for 42
2:23
millimeter Apple watches and it's not
2:26
inexpensive so here's the thing that
2:28
most surprised me is that this watch
2:31
strap is actually a hundred and forty
2:33
nine bucks MSRP but here's the good news
2:37
is that if you preorder it now at hello
2:40
nomads com it's only a hundred and
2:42
nineteen bucks with Free Shipping but
2:44
still 119 bucks for a watch band but
2:47
then again I guess I spent three four
2:49
hundred dollars on the watch itself so
2:52
maybe this is just the price of
2:53
admission however it goes I will say
2:56
that I am really glad to get rid of that
2:58
black watch band and to step up and
3:01
upgrade my look a little bit with this
3:04
leather one so this is Dave Taylor
3:06
assuming I can successfully negotiate
3:08
this step there we go
3:11
and my swanky new Nomad Apple watch band
3:18
called the strap is fully functional my
3:21
Apple watch just looks suddenly a whole
3:24
lot better and I will invite you to
3:26
check it out at hello nomads calm this
3:29
is Dave Taylor and see you in my next
