Personally, I have never been able to wear a metal (link) watch band. They always pinch my arm hairs.
So, whenever I'm looking for a new watch, particularly in a store, it cuts down the selection by 90%, since very few (if any) watches with metal bands allow you to switch them out for leather (correct me if I'm wrong, but this is what I was told many years ago), and the selection of non-metal bands is nearly non-existent. I know you can get many watches with leather bands online, but it would be nice to be able to actually see and try one out.
Do most of your have no problem with metal bands, making me a minority here, which is why the watch-makers don't put more leather banded product out there?
