The leather of the new Special Edition Achtzylinder (german for eight-cylinder engine) comes from the interior of a 1957 BMW 503. The retro look with racing perforations is reminiscent of the sporty brand image of the Bavarian car manufacturer. Matching its origin, the watch band is kept in the colors white and blue.

    Compatible with all Apple Watches: 
    Series 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8  & SE

    Our adapters and the clasp will perfectly match your Titanium, Steel, Aluminum or Nike version.

    To retain the characteristic look of your leather band for years to come, we recommend following these care instructions:

    • This leather is designed to resist wet and humid environments, so it is safe to use it for sporting activities and even wear it in the pool. Always make sure to remove the  band from the Apple Watch, after it gets wet to dry the adapter pieces and bandslots.
    • Remove your  band from the Apple Watch case at least once a month to clean the adapters and the bandslot.

    If you have any questions about your watch band, feel free to contact us via service@bandwerk.com.

    Compliments!

    This band is very good looking. Sporty, well designed and crafted. I love the leather and the color. But what I am enjoying the most, is how many compliments I receive when I wear it. I hope the next one is an AR or MBZ.

    Absolutely Love It.

    Love the band. Love knowing I have a small piece of an iconic car. The craftsmanship is superb, the design is understated but extremely classy (honestly, the other special edition bands didn’t feel the same), and I cannot get over how deep the navy blue color is. The only, and I mean only, quibble I have is that it’s a tad stiff and has taken longer than some other bands to wear in. This is literally the only negative I can think of; still give it 6/5 stars haha.

    Superb Quality

    This is my 3rd BandWerk Apple Watch band, and second special edition. I also own the Royal Edition and a black Alligator. The quality of the leather is unmatched. I have seen and felt other "premium" leather bands and they just do not compare. The stitching is flawless, definitely has some weight to the leather and not cheap, thin strips. I received my most recent Achtzylinder SE to the US from Germany in 3 days, that's insane to me! My alligator strap has the butterfly clasp which I think I prefer ever so slightly just to keep the leather from creasing at the buckle, but you only notice that once its off the wrist. I will not hesitate to consider future BandWerk bands.

    Love it!

    Perfect mix of classic and fun, with beautiful workmanship, as always. I have three BandWerk watch bands and expect to wear this one a lot. (I also really love my black ostrich band.)
