    The body of the watch is very unique. But the watchband is a definite rip-off.

      Did Apple invent the band? I wouldn’t even know how to source pre-existing watch band designs, but I would swear stuff like that existed long before smart watches.

        Of course they didn’t.

        Bands like that exist for a very, very long time, mostly on ‘manly’ watches (for outdoor, pilot watches, etc).

          Apple has so many bands you’d almost always find something similar. It’s not like that’s the first thing that shows on the Apple Store.
