Smartwatches have become the accessory du jour for gadget fans the past few years or so. But one criticism (well, if you’re the fashionable type at least) about the wearable is that the variant designs are limited and you get stuck with the same watch strap once you buy your smartwatch. Moto 360 is now offering separate watch bands that will give you a bit of limited variety for your smartwatch.
You can now buy two kinds of Moto 360 bands to interchange with your existing smartwatch, depending on your mood or your fashion style. For the more “hipster” or “rock star”-ish look, you can go for the leather bands which are made from hand-treated materials from Horween, a prestigious tannery. There are different shades available: black, stone, cognac. They come with a stainless steel buckle.
For a more classic and formal look, you can get the metal bands for the Moto 360. They are made from solid stainless steel and come with a butterfly clasp for its contemporary tri-link design. It comes in black and silver variants. They are both of normal width so if you’re looking for thin straps, you’ll have to wait a little longer.
While the variety of straps is very much welcome, you can’t just change this yourself, like you would change the strap of your normal watch. Motorola suggests that you visit a local jeweler in order to assist you. The leather band is available for $29.99 while the metal bands can be bought for $79.99. Both are available on the Motorola online store.
