Or... should I get a 'silver' band?

Yeah, it is red, like the pic.

Answer 1

I have a brown leather band, I think it's pretty snazzy.

Answer 2

I prefer metal watchbands because they traditionally feel and look more masculine. However in Europe guys wear all sorts of colors of watchbands....and they also wear purses too...kinda metrosexualish.

I would treat watchband colors much like shoe colors. Would you wear red shoes everyday? Probably not. But would you wear black or brown ones? most likely. The only exception to that would be silver or any metal watchbands....they almost always seem to look nice...probably because they are a neutral toned accessory.

You could also consider your red watch band to be for occasions....when you want to have a little more err style I suppose.

My advice. Save the colored bands for clubbin and Las Vegas.

Answer 3

I think it`s quite stylish. I have loads of them myself. Don't go for the silver band - it's so last year.

Answer 4

I generally prefer leather watch bands for myself. What do you prefer?

Answer 5

A little girly. Men, I think, look better with a metal watchband. Take it for what it's worth...........

Answer 6

Not bad...unless the band is white.

Answer 7

i like siver better cuz it makes the watch look more expensive. ^_^
