With the Blaze's versatility of being a removable module, I'd really like to see some third party developers get creative with an assortment of different bands/frames, or maybe even different types of housing for the blaze (like something that's just a clip if you didn't want to wear it on your wrist). Did anyone see/hear of anything like this? The only accessories I can find right now are the ones made by Fitbit, which surprises me. I'd really like to find a canvas band, or one that has a frame that is some color other than silver (like black or gold).

Did you actually receive this one (has anyone?) and if so how is the quality compared to the OITOM? I do like the locking feature as opposed to the magnet as I work out a lot and have a ton of motion. Thank you in advance and I'm happy to be part of the community!

yesterday. I am pretty sure I could box or play tennis in this magnet one
without issue. It isn't moving. And should it, it won't fall off hour
wrist without going over your hand as the magnet is bigger then the slide
loop portion.
Hope this helps.

No one has even posted that as it was not available on Amazon until today (maybe yesterday). So I have not seen any mention of this at all.
I am with you, I like the locking mechanism much better as I have used that mechanism on past watches. I ordered the V-moro, which I have found is shipping from Canada, but that has the magnet as well.
I may wait until some reviews are posted about the one with the clasp since it is so low-dollar I am little concerned. There is another seller with them as well, but they are more $ and are only taking pre-orders right now:

Any updates on the Frame? I'd love to get 1-2 frames so I can swap easily between these bands. I can't justify the $139 CAD for the official fitbit replacement bands...

Here is the only stand-alone frame I have seen, third party on Amazon.

Wow. 57 bucks for a frame? I didnt expect that.
Id really like a spare frame to attach to a spare band sometime in the future but thats a little steep yet. Something to keep an eye, though. Thanks for the link.

Nothing on there for $32. That seller must have been selling them fast because there is a second seller now but list only 1 left and they are selling for $50+4 shipping.

first, thank you all for saving me $$. i just got my Blaze on Friday and dislike the band, the clasp makes me a little itchy, i can imagine what will happen with sweating in the warmer weather.
I just ordered the Rose Gold band for $19.49 with free prime ship it should be here on 3/22.
i am thrilled to not spend $100.00 on a watch band and so happy you guys are sharing the information for an idiot like me who did not even consider to check Amazon! thank you thankyou.
i will post after I recieve it and someone can please direct me how to post the pic. I will too.

That's wonderful. Sigh, they dropped the price again but that's wonderful for everyone else. After I received the silver I went ahead and ordered the Rose Gold and the Black and the price was almost $60 for both. Still a long ways from $99 for one band though. But I'm kinda sick that I missed your deal.

I just got my Oitom Milanese Loop band yesterday, which is the band that everyone seems to love.
Maybe I'm missing something or maybe I got a defect...but I cannot get my band to attach to the frame! The pins don't stay in place--it keeps falling off! Am I doing something wrong??

@fabio_santino I did write this post for fun this morning for the most part but with a warning to make sure the pins were secure because I did lose my fitbit temporarily yesterday. I hoped it was just an accident on my part. I am wearing it now and I'm pulling and I can't duplicate it coming off. I received a total of 3 pins. Do they appear to be identical for you? They kind of snap in place once you finally get it there.

They delivered my band to a house in a town that is 22 miles from me.
Will they refund the 2 day delivery fee for me?

Darn it, my v-moro is malinase is coming from China. Well, that really just means longer shipping time, butk knowing 100% that Otiom is produced in China I am sure they are the same quality. The bonus for Otiom is the fact that it is in stock and ships from Amazon in Kentucky.

I tried this one for my wife:

couldn't get it to fit unfortunately.

I just received my Oitom MIlanese Loop Bands. I ordered Rose Gold and Black. I put the Rose Gold one on first and it looks great. It's very inobtrusive and comfortable (keep in mind I've only had it about 10 minutes). Getting the first side connected to the frame was a cinch. I struggled mightily with the second side, due to the band being a loop and you have to hold the band out of the way while you try to work underneath it. I finally thought to take the FB out of the frame (probably should have thought of that first) and that made it easier.
The black is really black. Hard to describe, but I think it's because the band is so wide that it startled me with the instensity of the color. Once I try it out, it may be just fine, as the Rose Gold seemed much more instense, as well, before putting it on.
