I've had a Band for most of the year and highly recommend it. Unlike watty, I think it's pretty comfortable. Admittedly it took a couple of days to get used to, but I rarely notice that it's on my wrist. The only exception being that the non-curved display does get in the way when I type on a laptop — which is very rare for me, your mileage may vary.

I'd recommend that you get a screen protector for your band, though. The weird, soft bezel around this version is extremely prone to scratches doing even the most mundane tasks.

Thanks.. I think I'll give the 1st gen band a try. My 1st gen LG Android watch has gotten me used to wearing a watch again, so I'm hoping for a minimal transition. If it doesn't work out, I've got ~30 days to return it, and get the Band 2.

BTW, I read how easy the thing scratches, and purchased some screen protectors along with it.
