Hallelujah! Doesn't come loose, doesn't snag clothing!
I had to give up my old FitBit Alta as it just wasn't charging anymore. When I got a FitBit Luxe, I immediately purchased a metal mesh band (not the one I am reviewing here) like the one I had on the Alta. That first band was so frustrating and disappointing. It repeatedly snagged threads on my clothing, ruining a couple of silk scarves, but worse, it was always coming apart from the Luxe, sending it flying across the room or dropping to the ground. (The magnet closure worked just fine; the problem was where it connected to the Luxe.) This would happen multiple times a day, especially when putting on my backpack, even when I was careful about it. I was in danger of permanently losing the Luxe, so after finding it in front of my back tire one day where I would have driven right over it -- I decided to buy a different one.Reading the reviews this time, I discovered that this coming loose problem seemed to be a common complaint about many of the magnetic metal mesh bands out there, and snagging was also a common problem. The snagging is a quality control issue, but coming loose seems to be a problem only with metal bands for the Luxe -- the attachment place is not as secure. After reading enough reviews with the same verdict, I gave up and bought a leather band. (The silicone bands make my wrist sweat.). The leather band was okay at first although not infinitely adjustable like the metal mesh bands with the magnet closure. I am in the habit of adjusting the fit of the band on my wrist a few times a day, especially as the day goes on. Sometimes it is for comfort; sometimes because the FitBit has shifted positions through day. This is much harder to do on a stiff leather band with only a limited number of fit options (holes). In the current warmer weather, I found I was having to adjust or take the Fitbit off my wrist altogether with increasing frequency because the leather was not as comfortable as the metal mesh.I finally decided to try again to find a metal mesh band. I went back through my orders to the one I bought for my Alta 3 years ago, then I looked for a band by the same company for the Luxe. I found this one, and in reading the reviews didn't find the same complaints and even found a couple that mentioned specifically that it did not come off. I wasn't sure I trusted it, because I had read that the problem was with the way the attachment point on the Luxe was designed, but I decided to take a chance on this band.I have now been wearing it for two weeks and it has NEVER come detached from the Luxe. I still put my backpack on multiple times a day, and although I am careful not to put undue stress on the band, it has shown no signs of being "delicate". I am able to adjust the fit of the Luxe when I sweat and easily take it off/put it back on after washing my hands or showering so that I can dry my arm well. I am SO HAPPY with this band. I also seem to sweat less under the metal mesh band than with leather. I particularly like the color, which is the same that I had on my old Alta band. It is called "colorful" and looks a little garish in the photos on the Amazon product page. In reality it has a subtle iridescence of color that shifts from a muted purple to blue to green as I move my wrist.

Fits a 5.5" wrist
I'm really happy with this replacement band. I was worried it would be too big for my 5.5" wrist, but it fits well and is not bulky where the band is doubled. It looks much nicer than the black silicon or leather bands. The magnet is strong and I've worn this through a few HIIT workouts with no issues. I wish I bought this earlier and will buy other colors and a back up of the silver version in case they stop making these!

Almost perfect band for my Luxe
This is a beautiful band, easy to attach and comfortable to wear, for the most part. The magnetic closure makes it infinitely adjustable, but causes the band's one DOWNSIDE: the magnet will catch on anything metallic that comes in range.

Even better than I thought
This watch band is so stylish and comfortable. I love the magnetic closure, which is adjustable to any length. No more getting stuck between two arbitrarily placed holes. The color is great with my luxe, and it is suitable for sport, a night on the town, and even the shower or pool. Didn't turn my skin green, either. Easy to get on and off, but secure enough it won't fall off. Love it.

Really pretty and adjustable for comfort
The band is beautiful, my biggest issue is a work with steel shelving and the magnet is so strong it sticks and pulls the band off
