I wanted to make an iWatch but I didn’t really feel the need to buy another Nano. That said, if you want to try your hand at iWatchery, hop over to GnomonWatches or even eBay and just look for a “Bond” strap in the style you like.

Incidentally, these straps are called “Bond straps” because Jimmy wore them in some of the movies to hold down his Rolex. The modern Bond wears Omega, which I think is a better choice for a man of endless mystery.
