Takeaways
  • Pixel Watch Bands come in ten different styles and a variety of colors – including the sleep-ready Gradient Stretch Band, the micro-adjustable Performance Loop Band, the timeless Crafted Leather Band, the elevated Metal Slim Band, and many more
  • With expanded colors in the band portfolio, you have more options to match the color of your phone (and even your earbuds) or pick something entirely different to create a look that fits your style
  • You can also coordinate your watch face type and colorway to complete the look
Google Pixel Watches are made to be multifaceted – just like you.

There are plenty of ways to customize your watch to fit your vibe.

Pixel Watch Bands
come in up to ten styles – from Active and Stretch to leather and metals – in a variety of colors and materials. Most of the styles come in two sizes: 41mm to fit the smaller
Pixel Watch 5
and earlier generations of the Pixel Watch, and 45mm to fit the larger Pixel Watch 5. And since they’re easy to swap out, you don’t have to choose just one. You can also pick a watch face that best suits you.

“From the very beginning, we saw this great opportunity to create something that truly feels like just a part of your life, not another piece of technology,” says Isabelle Olsson, VP of design for home and wearables across Google hardware. Olsson led the team that designed the Pixel Watch.

The watch band serves another important purpose: to make sure your Pixel Watch is getting accurate

health readings
. It’s part of what makes the bands more than a design statement. This was a key consideration for Google’s designers. “Our main inspiration was to design for the context that our products live in,” says Olsson. “And in this particular case, the context is your body. And everybody’s bodies are different. And everybody’s preferences are different.”

“Since [the bands] go on your body, they have to be durable, they have to be comfortable, and they have to fit into your everyday life.”

Here’s a closer look at how you can make your Pixel Watch your own.
Active Sport Band.
A
waterproof band
made of silicone, so it’s just as durable as it is comfortable. The rows of perforations make it breathable – the ideal band for workouts. It’s available in six colors: Olive, Citrus, Hibiscus, Obsidian, Porcelain, and Moonstone.

Pairs well with: The circular aesthetic of your glanceable stats - calories burned, step count, heart rate, and more - on the Track watch face effortlessly complements the circular perforations of the Active Sport Band. Perfect for workouts.

Super durable and adaptable, the
Active Band
, which comes in-box with every watch, is made of waterproof Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (HNBR) with a soft-touch coating so it’s both durable and comfortable. It’s available in four shades: Fog, Canyon, Olive and Obsidian.
Pairs well with: The Pixel Watch 5’s new Corsa watch face is modern with playful interactions, bringing the best of Material 3 Expressive, our latest UI, to life. It has the versatility to show various stats right on your wrist, such as step count, heart rate, digital clock, and more, as well as Gemini.

Gradient Stretch Band.
“Why can’t a watch be as comfortable as a pair of sneakers?” asks Olsson. The
Gradient Stretch Band
– in Obsidian/Hazel, Moonstone, Olive, or Hibiscus – is soft and stretchy, making it perfect for everyday and overnight comfort. And it’s made from recycled materials.4 “[The band] really stretches and fits your life,” Olsson says. Quite literally. When the Gradient Stretch Band is expanded, it further reveals a glimpse of another color, highlighting the texture and gradient.

Pairs well with: The large numbers of the Utility Bold watch face are bold yet refined and easy to see at a glance, while the customizable arcs help surface important stats. The colors bring out the two tones in the bands, too.

Performance Loop Band.
The
Performance Loop Band
is designed to be your new run buddy. It’s micro-adjustable for the perfect fit and offers just the right amount of stretch during workouts. Featuring stainless steel lugs and comfortable recycled fabric, it comes in five colorways: Olive, Canyon, Obsidian, Porcelain, and Moonstone

Pairs well with: The Field watch face has an analog aesthetic that emphasizes your watch’s large screen and small bezels with its indices stretched around the perimeter of the screen. The colors uniquely coordinate with the colors in the band, and it’s also customizable – showing step count, weather, heart rate, Gemini, and more.

Woven Band.
Lightweight, thin, and breathable, the
Woven Band
is a good everyday choice. Made from multiple shades of yarn, it’s a mix of shades that pop and is available in six colorways: Fog, Moonstone, Hibiscus, Ivy, Porcelain, and Rainbow Pride., “It was inspired by the world of apparel,” says Olsson. And while most bands have holes to adjust the size, the Woven Band has a custom-designed clasp that slides, fitting precisely to your wrist.

Pairs well with: The large numbers of the Utility Bold watch face are bold yet refined and easy to see at a glance. The design’s colorways complement the multi-color shades in the bands, as well.

Leather Bands.

Perhaps the most classic option, the

Crafted Leather Band
is made of Italian leather with fine stitching and comes in Moonstone with Brushed Silver Stainless Steel lugs and Obsidian with Matte Black Stainless Steel lugs. The
Two-Tone Leather option
adds further dimension, offered in two colorways: Charcoal with Polished Silver lugs or Jade with Champagne Gold lugs, both featuring lugs made of stainless steel and tonal colors on the straps.

Metal Bands.
For more of a modern jewelry look, the
Metal Mesh Band
and
Metal Slim Band
are made of flexible stainless steel, and come in Matte Black, Champagne Gold, and Silver.3 (Compatible with the Pixel Watch 5, Pixel Watch 4, Pixel Watch 3, and Pixel Watch 2.) The magnetic clasp is easy to adjust, so you get exactly the right fit. Another option, the
Metal Links Band
, which works with the Pixel Watch 4, Pixel Watch 3, and Pixel Watch 2, has soft curves and classic lines in Brushed Silver or Matte Black.3 Easily add or remove links yourself to get the right fit – no professionals needed.

Pairs well with: Three options work well here. Pilot Bold is a bold twist to the Pilot watch face, offering weightier numerals and indices to enhance readability – it pairs perfectly with the effortless and elegant aesthetic of the Metal Mesh Band. While the Abstract watch face (shown on the Metal Slim Band) features a minimalistic analog design with no indices – just a clean floating hour arm, a minute arm, and a dot to track seconds. Concentric (shown on the Silver Metal Links Band) has more of a technical look, with a digital time and rings of numbers inspired by diving watches.

Pick a color and make it your own

Each band comes in a choice of colors, and many were designed to coordinate with the larger Pixel portfolio. For example, when you pop your Porcelain

Pixel Buds Pro 2
into your ears, your Porcelain band picks up on that color. And the shades were tested on different skin tones to make sure they flatter everyone. 

“We want to always have something on the warm side, something on the cool side, something on the neutral side, something dark neutral, and then some combinations in between,” says Olsson.

And there’s no need to commit to just one.
Google Pixel Watch Bands
are easy to swap out, so you can switch them up for different occasions or seasons, or whenever you want a style refresh. “The bands give you an opportunity to change things up,” suggests Olsson.
