I need a watchband connector

My apple watch died; sent it back and got a new one, but no watchband connector came with it and I have the magnetic Milanese band. Magnetic end will not fit through 41mm connectors I can find online. Can anyone help? Apple Care is stumped!


Apple Watch Series 8, watchOS 9

I'm a bit surprised that when you contacted Apple that they didn't offer you either replacement connectors or provide you with the exact dimensions to get them somewhere else, like at a jewelry store or watchmaker.


I'm not 100% sure on the Apple Watch repair service, on whether or not, they had you send the watchband with the Watch, but it appears from your post that you did include both. As such, I would have expected that they returned both.
