Tasikar magnetic silicone band for Apple Watch (42/44/45/49mm)
An easy magnetic silicone band for big Apple Watches; less secure than a buckle.
The short version
- Owners of a 42mm to 49mm Apple Watch who want a magnetic closure
- People who want a washable band for workouts
- Anyone who finds pin and tuck bands fiddly
- You do contact sports or climbing where a band could be knocked open
- Your watch is a 38, 40 or 41mm model; Tasikar sells a separate small size
What owners like
- Quick to put on and take off with no clasp to thread
- Silicone handles sweat and water, so it suits workouts
- A clean look with no buckle hardware on the strap
Common complaints
- A magnet does not hold as firmly as a traditional buckle, so a hard knock can open it
- Very little detail on the listing about wrist sizes or magnet strength

What it does
A silicone Apple Watch band from Tasikar that closes with magnets instead of a buckle, made for the larger 42, 44, 45 and 49mm watch cases.
- Magnetic closure instead of a pin and buckle
- Soft silicone strap for sport and daily wear
- Fits the larger Apple Watch case sizes, including Ultra
- Tasikar also sells a double sided version in two-tone colors
A simple, low cost pick for anyone who wants a soft silicone band that snaps shut with a magnet instead of a pin and buckle. The main trade-off is security: a magnet is quick and easy but not as foolproof as a buckle. Tasikar now also sells a double sided version that can be worn with either color facing out.

Questions
Which Apple Watch sizes does the Tasikar magnetic band fit?
This version fits 42, 44, 45 and 49mm cases, including Ultra and Ultra 2. A separate Tasikar listing covers 38, 40 and 41mm.
Are magnetic Apple Watch bands secure?
They hold well for daily wear, but reviewers note a magnet is not as foolproof as a buckle. Some rivals add a hidden buckle as a backup.
Can a silicone magnetic band get wet?
Silicone magnetic bands are sold for sweat and water, and rinse clean.
What does double sided mean on Tasikar bands?
Tasikar's newer version can be worn with either side facing out, so a two-tone band shows a different color.
