Watch Band Compatibility Guide: Which Bands Fit My Watch?
This guide is about compatibility, not wrist size or band length.
It shows which bands will connect to your watch. Find your watch model below to see which bands are compatible with it.
For most watches, compatibility comes down to one number: the connection width, also called lug width. That is the gap in millimetres where the band attaches to the watch. If your watch is listed with 22mm bands, shop for 22mm bands.
Numbers in brackets next to a model, such as (47mm case), are the size of the watch itself. They help you find the right version of your model and are not the band you need.
Checking a watch that is not listed: take the current band off and measure the gap between the two attachment points on the watch with a ruler. Measure the gap on the watch, not the band, because bands are usually cut a fraction narrower than the space they sit in. That single mistake causes most wrong orders.
Some brands do not use a connection width at all. Apple, Fitbit, Google Pixel Watch, Garmin QuickFit and the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 series use their own connectors, so compatibility is matched by watch model instead.
Garmin
QuickFit and quick release bands are not interchangeable. Match the band type and width.

Apple Watch
Every Apple Watch band comes in two sizes. The one you need depends on your watch's case size, not its series or your wrist size. Your case size is engraved on the back of the watch.
Smaller band — 38–41mm (any series) or 42mm (Series 10+): fits every Apple Watch with a 38mm, 40mm or 41mm case, whatever the series, from the original Apple Watch through Series 9 and SE. It also fits the 42mm Series 10, 11 and 12.
Larger band — 44–49mm (any series) or 42mm (Series 3 or older): fits every Apple Watch with a 44mm, 45mm, 46mm or 49mm case, whatever the series, including every Ultra. It also fits the 42mm original Apple Watch and Series 1, 2 and 3.
Original Apple Watch and Series 1 to 3 (38mm case) — smaller band
Original Apple Watch and Series 1 to 3 (42mm case) — larger band
Series 4 to 6 and SE (40mm case) — smaller band
Series 4 to 6 and SE (44mm case) — larger band
Series 7 to 9 (41mm case) — smaller band
Series 7 to 9 (45mm case) — larger band
Series 10 to 12 (42mm case) — smaller band
Series 10 to 12 (46mm case) — larger band
Ultra, every model (49mm case) — larger band
Careful with 42mm: Apple has made two different 42mm watches. A 42mm Series 10, 11 or 12 takes the smaller band; a 42mm Series 3 or older takes the larger band. No Apple Watch from Series 4 to Series 9 was made in 42mm, so a 42mm watch you got before September 2024 is a Series 3 or older.
Cases, and bands with a case included, must match your watch's specific model and case size. Follow the individual product's options rather than the general guide above.
Samsung Galaxy Watch
Galaxy Watch 8, Watch 8 Classic and Watch 9 use Samsung's Dynamic Lug connector. They are not compatible with standard 20mm or 22mm quick-release bands, or with bands from any earlier Galaxy Watch. Choose bands listed specifically for these models.
Galaxy Watch Ultra bands are compatible with every Ultra model, but they use a wider connector than Watch 8 bands, so the two are not interchangeable.

Brands that use their own connectors
These do not use a connection width, so compatibility is matched by watch model rather than by millimetres.
Fitbit: each product line has its own connector. Charge 5 and Charge 6 bands are compatible with each other; Charge 3 and Charge 4 share a different connector. Inspire 1, 2 and HR share a connector, and the Inspire 3 does not. Versa 3, Versa 4, Sense and Sense 2 share one, while Versa, Versa Lite and Versa 2 share another. Luxe is on its own.
Google Pixel Watch: a twist-and-lock connector in two versions, named after the watch's case size. 41mm bands are compatible with the original Pixel Watch, Pixel Watch 2, and the 41mm Pixel Watch 3, 4 and 5. 45mm bands are compatible with the 45mm Pixel Watch 3, 4 and 5.
Garmin QuickFit: used on larger outdoor models. QuickFit bands come in 20mm, 22mm and 26mm widths, but they are not interchangeable with Quick Release spring-bar bands.
