Minkoff debuted a trio of new Apple Watch bands retailing from $80 to $100. The first band is a snakeskin leather band, the second is a leather double wrap and the third is a traditional leather band with designs etched into it.

The fashion brand also debuted a set of phone-charging wallets and wristlets, which Minkoff says will provide two and half full charges for iPhone. The first is a charging wristlet folio that retails for $120 that'll come in black, cobalt and almond. The second is a fringe cross body that retails for $100 and works with both iPhone 6 / 6s and 6 / 6s Plus.

All of the new accessories will launch tomorrow, September 12 on Case-Mate.com and RebeccaMinkoff.com.

Nope - you just don't know how to wear it...

Nope it's different from the Hermes one, take a look at the one above and follow the loops... then take a look at the Hermes one, the Hermes one will not obscure the sensor, this one will and can slip behind the sensor
Both are double loop bands. Go do a google image search for images of people wearing double loop watch bands... you'll see that you don't simply just loop it over twice underneath the watch... one of the loops always goes to the side (like a bracelet).
