Pebble Watch Band (hole end)

thingiverse

I purchased my Pebble watch with a band that snapped in half on one side due to wear and tear. A year later, I had to replace it with a new band made of stiff plastic, but this one was also showing signs of fatigue. To avoid wasting $10 on another full watch band, I decided to model and print my own version using flexible filament from Maker Geeks (Maker Flex TPE). I reused the existing spring-loaded retaining pin for the new part. The resulting part is much more flexible than its predecessor and has shown no signs of wear after a year of daily use. Although my filament is Candy Apple Red, which doesn't match the rest of the watch, I don't mind. Edit: The original model was 21 mm wide where it connects to the watch body. However, it kept popping loose on me, so I recommend making it at least 21.75 mm wide for a more secure fit.
