+Massively expands your choice of straps+Not too expensive
Avoidable reasons
A new strap is a must-have, but not the most exciting gift.
It was inevitable, but Apple’s decision to ditch standard watchbands in favor of something more exclusive is still disappointing, especially for those who don’t want to spend a lot on the stainless steel link bracelet Apple sells just to add some metal to their watch.
This Wearlizer adaptor is available. It fits into your wearable and allows you to attach any watch strap.

It’s a bit DIY, but it’s still a useful thing to have with you
If you intend to use your Apple Watch frequently, external power packs are essential. The 1800mAh battery in this particular model is slim, made from aluminum, and it’s sleek. It could have been designed by Apple.
You will need to make your own MagSafe charging cables, then plug it into your battery, and wrap it around your interior to charge your Watch.
We still like the idea of being able to charge up our wearables a few times with our pockets.

Plastic-Only is available in two colors
Griffin’s WatchStand provides a home for your iPhone and watch every night. The front has a lip that will support your phone, and the raised arm proudly holds your Watch in full view.
The MagSafe charger can be attached to the device, but there is no place for the iPhone cable. It is a cheaper option for docking the Apple Watch. The matte black plastic looks great, even though it isn’t made from metal.

-Pricey-Won’t Charge Other Gadgets
There are no simpler charging solutions than these. Zens’ tiny Apple Watch powerbank does not have a Lightning port. Instead, it uses an internal 1300mAh battery that is attached to an inductive charger.
The cube’s power level is indicated by four LEDs along its side. It can hold three full charges before it must be plugged into the micro USB port to re-juice (although an adapter is not included).
The Powerbank supports Night Stand mode making it a great companion for all types of travel.

Pricey: No cable included
This is a rehash from Twelve South’s older HiRise stand for iPhone and iPad. It’s meant to keep your Apple Watch visible and charged even when it’s not on your wrist.
The aluminum body is available in silver or black and is Apple-esque. The finish, particularly the soft silicone coated edges, that will prevent scratches from appearing when you raise or lower the wearable, is definitely premium.
If you don’t want to use the MagSafe cable as your charging solution, you will need to purchase your own.

-Charging cable is not included. Closing mechanism a little iffy
The capsule is both a case for your Apple Watch and a stand. It can also hold a USB charger, a charging cable, and an additional watch band. This makes it a great travel companion.
The top of the case has an integrated opening that allows for the charging disc to slide into. This opens and feeds power to the Apple Watch when the charging disc is draped over the front. The hinges can also keep the case open at an angle thanks to their stiffness. This allows your watch to enter Nightstand mode while it charges.

Sena creates leather sleeves for iPhones, iPads, and other devices. This handy travel case protects your Watch while it’s in your bag. It can also be used as a charging station.
The Watch is lightweight and compact, but there’s a handy compartment at the bottom for the charging cable. This is useful for when you travel, as there may not be a suitable surface on which to rest your Watch in your hotel room. This also allows you to leave the charging cable connected permanently.
Magnetic lids ensure that your Watch remains safely in its place.
