For Ultra, Ultra 2, Ultra 3 and Ultra 4
Since the first Apple Watch Ultra in 2022, Apple has used the same 49-millimetre case for every generation. The Apple Watch Ultra 4, which was released in September 2026 in natural and black titanium, also uses this size. That means one band fits all four.
- Apple Watch Ultra (2022), 49 mm.
- Apple Watch Ultra 2 (2023), 49 mm.
- Apple Watch Ultra 3 (2025), 49 mm.
- Apple Watch Ultra 4 (2026), 49 mm.
The band also fits Apple Watch models with 44, 45 and 46 mm cases, should you also have a second watch.
From titanium sports watch to evening watch
The bands Apple includes with the Ultra are designed for performance: the Trail Loop, the Alpine Loop and the Ocean Band. Functional and durable, but not the band you would choose for a suit or a dress. An Alcantara® band gives the Ultra a second character. The titanium remains, but the look becomes more refined.
Alcantara is the Italian microfibre you know from the interiors of exclusive sports cars. It feels velvety soft, is more breathable than leather and is light enough for you to forget you are wearing the band all day.
Magnetic closure, always the perfect fit
No buckle, no holes. The integrated magnetic closure lets you adjust the band continuously, so it fits perfectly whether your wrist is warm after exercise or cool in the morning. Wrap the band around your wrist, set it to the desired length and the magnet holds it in place. This keeps the band looking sleek, without an overhanging end or metal buckle pressing against your desk.
Alcantara or leather for your Ultra?
Leather is classic, but becomes stiff in the cold and gets stained by sweat. Alcantara® stays supple, feels warm against the inside of your wrist and retains its colour. Moreover, both sides of this Apple Watch Ultra band are made of Alcantara, so what you see is also what you feel.
Thirteen colours for your Apple Watch Ultra
With thirteen shades, you will find a band for every occasion and every case.
- For black titanium: Black Velvet, Space Grey or Navy Blue, for a completely dark, powerful look.
- For natural titanium: Champagne Beige, Chocolate Brown or Nardo Grey, warm and timeless.
- Deep and rich: Wine Red, Burgundy Red, Midnight Green or Ocean Blue.
- Light and distinctive: Glacier Blue, Powder Pink or Orange, for those who dare.
When you would rather take off the Ocean Band
The Apple Watch Ultra is waterproof to 100 metres and made for diving. Alcantara® is not. If you are going swimming, diving or participating in water sports, switch to a sports band. Thanks to Apple's band system, this takes just a few seconds, and afterwards you can wear Alcantara again. This keeps your band looking beautiful for years.
Caring for your Ultra band
- Brush the band occasionally with a soft, dry brush.
- Dab a stain with a slightly damp cloth and a drop of mild soap.
- Let the band dry away from the watch after exercise or rain.
- Avoid alcohol and disinfectant wipes.
Complete your set
An Ultra band looks best alongside other accessories in the same texture. Choose an iPhone 18 Pro Max case or an AirPods Pro 3 case in a matching colour. If you are looking for a band for a smaller Apple Watch, view all Apple Watch bands.
Frequently asked questions about Apple Watch Ultra bands
What size band does the Apple Watch Ultra use?
All Apple Watch Ultra models have a 49 mm case. So you should choose a 49 mm band, which also fits models with 44, 45 and 46 mm cases.
Does this band fit the Apple Watch Ultra 4?
Yes. The Ultra 4 has the same 49 mm case as the Ultra, Ultra 2 and Ultra 3, and the same band attachment system.
How does the magnetic closure work?
Wrap the band around your wrist, pull it tight until it fits well and release it. The magnet holds it in place. This lets you adjust the fit continuously, without holes.
Can I swim with an Alcantara band?
It is better not to. The Ultra can go in the water, but Alcantara® looks best when it stays dry. Switch to a sports band when swimming or diving.
When will I receive my band?
In the Netherlands, your order usually arrives the next business day, and shipping is free from 60 euros. You can return it for up to 100 days after receipt; you pay the return shipping costs yourself.
