The Atelier women's leather band for Apple Watch, with a bow or star at the case

Leather with a little jewelry

The Atelier is a leather band for Apple Watch with a decorative metal piece at both ends of the case. The pieces sit right where the band meets the watch, so they frame the screen top and bottom and stay in place instead of swinging like a charm. The rest is a plain strap: leather with stitched edges, a row of holes and a pin buckle with a keeper.

The hardware changes with the color, and the photo of each color shows what you get:

• Black and White: a silver-tone bow set with small rhinestones, and a silver-tone buckle.
• Pink: the same rhinestone bow in a rose gold tone, with a rose gold tone buckle.
• Ivory: a polished silver-tone bow without stones, a quieter take on the same idea.
• Taupe: a silver-tone star at each end in place of the bow.

On a silver or light watch case, the silver-tone colors match the metal best. The rose gold tone on Pink sits well next to a gold or rose gold case. Black is the easiest one to wear every day; White and Ivory look lighter and a little dressier.

Pick the right case size

Apple Watch bands are sized by the case, not by the wrist. Your case size is engraved on the back of the case, and the Watch app on your iPhone lists it under My Watch, General, About. Match it to one of the four options:

• 38/40/41: for 38, 40 and 41 mm cases.
• 42 (S10+): for the 42 mm case of Series 10 and later.
• 44/45/49: for 44, 45 and 49 mm cases, including every Ultra. It also fits the 42 mm case of Series 1 to 3.
• 46 (S10+): for the 46 mm case of Series 10 and later.

S10+ is short for Series 10 and later. A 42 mm watch can need either of two options, depending on its age: a Series 1 to 3 takes 44/45/49, while a Series 10 or later takes 42 (S10+). If you are not sure which one you own, check the back of the case before you order.

All five colors come in all four case sizes. Our fit guide has more help with measuring and sizing.

Fitting and care

Fitting takes a minute and needs no tools. Turn the watch over, hold down the band release button and slide the old band out to the side. Slide each half of The Atelier into its slot until it clicks, with the buckle half at the top of the watch and the half with the holes at the bottom. Give each half a gentle tug to check that it is locked in.

Wear it snug enough that the watch stays on top of your wrist, with room to slide a finger under the strap.

Leather and water don't mix. Keep the band dry, take it off before a shower, a swim or a sweaty workout, and never leave it to soak. If it gets wet, pat it dry and let it air dry at room temperature, away from a heater or direct sun. For everyday care, wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth. Keep perfume, lotion and hand sanitizer off the hardware and the stones, and give the metal a wipe with a dry cloth now and then. The rhinestones are set into the bows, so don't scrub them; a soft, dry brush lifts dust from around the stones, and it pays to keep them from knocking against desks and door frames. When you are not wearing it, store the band flat or loosely curled.
