MioHHR Compatible for Google Pixel Watch Band Metal, Stainless Steel Case with Wristband Strap for Pixel Watch 2022 Men Women

I love the case it's very nice however, it always happens to leave my Google assistant button triggered so that kills my battery on my watch. I hope it's just a design flaw and it can be fixed so I can order an updated version of the case some day

As a long time wearer of a Fossil watch, i was intrigued by the prospect of this band. The pixel watch can be a bit delicate and this band gives you some great protection. Unlike most bands that simply attach on the sides, this is both a case and a band, so the entire watch inserts and is entirely surrounded by the metal with a raised ring to protect the watch face. In comparison to a fossil band, it is notably lighter but still plenty sturdy. The process to remove links and size it is pretty easy with the included tools but the size adjustment is limited to removing whole links, other watches i've owned have a special link that lets you adjust it more finely but the links are only around 3/8 of an inch and i had no trouble sizing it to fit comfortably on my wrist. I initially got this as a more professional looking watch for formal attire, but quickly realized this is equally valuable in function and its ability to protect the watch from damage and this is now my daily driver.

This case really upgraded the look of my Pixel Watch 2 and I'm frequently asked what kind of watch I'm wearing or getting compliments, neither of which I was looking for or expecting. The metal case is very protective and it was easy to add a thin plastic film to make it even more protected and scratch free. Plus no more clouded watch face from trapped moisture when I wear it in the shower as happened with my old PVC case with the built-in see through plastic face cover.

Going into this I was a little confused at how the watch body fit into this band. But there's a TPU layer under all the metal that lets it snap in with surprising ease. It protects the watch with a metal and tpu layers this way, and I can't see why it wouldn't be effective at doing so. It's about as heavy as you would expect from an all-metal band. It has a reassuring weight on the wrist that I would expect from an all-metal band. The band itself is easy enough to adjust with the provided tools. I have a big wrist and it was oversized out of the box. Knocking out three links kept it loose enough for comfort while keeping it tight enough for heartrate detection. I bought the black version. From the pictures I wasn't sure if I would like the shinier metal around the watchface. In person it looks pretty good. I wear it largely for sleep detection and it's comfortable enough to sleep in but for that sort of thing your mileage will always vary. if you're used to metal watches on your wrist, this band is the closest I've gotten to feeling like I have a proper watch on my wrist again. it doesn't look haf bad either.
