With the Pixel Watch 2 strutting in the space once occupied by the original Pixel Watch and a new mysterious Wear OS-powered device surfacing, it may seem like Google’s first foray into smartwatches is on the outs. However, there’s still plenty of life in your Google Pixel Watch, which remains a relatively low-cost wearable for those looking for an entry-level option. Most importantly, you can still customize the Pixel Watch with a new band that may fit your style better.

Accessorizing your Google Pixel Watch

There are three standout picks for your next Google Pixel Watch band. Each one offers something unique, be it a stretchy fit or a more elegant appearance that goes well with dressier attire.

Take the best overall pick, the Polyjoy Stretch Nylon Band. The decorative band is more than just a showpiece. The band’s stretchy nylon is the focal point, lending a colorful personality and very comfortable wear. Its nylon construction will wear easily and surely become a part of your long-term Pixel Watch fashion.

For a higher-end option, consider the Google Two-Tone Leather Band, a slightly extravagant alternative designed to elevate your smartwatch. Sure, it still has all the same nifty features, but it’s a two-tone leather accessory that takes the Pixel Watch from your typical smartwatch to a wearable ready for elegant affairs.

Want a comfortable fit that won’t break the bank? Caeology’s Nano Pop is the best value for its blend of quality construction and low cost. The silicone, sweat-proof design is ideal for active lifestyles and great for protecting the watch bezel with its attached case.


With the fashion of your Google Pixel Watch settled, it’s time to ensure you’re making the most of its potential. For example, have you tinkered with any of the new features in the April 2024 update, like the improved haptics that tell time and auto-brightness?
