Adappt is a small adapter that will let you use your own watchband with the Apple Watch. On one side it features Apple’s proprietary plug, on the other side the classic plug used by most other watches.

The Adappt adapter is currently seeking funding on Indiegogo for delivery in June. It is available in two sizes, one for the 38mm and one for the 42mm Apple Watch. It's also available in various materials including plastic, anodized aluminium, stainless and gold plated steel. There's even an 18k gold version for those of you who plan to purchase the $10,000+ Apple Edition watch.

Here's a look at each option:

● Adappt Plastic - $9
Made of plastic, it's the most economic Adappt. But that doesn't mean cheap. It's made of durable, nice-looking rubber and matches your Apple Watch Sport finish.

● Adappt Aluminum - $29
If you want the Sport edition, this is the right Adappt for you. Every piece is built of strong, durable aluminum, then finished with an ionization treatment that gives it the right look and feel.

● Adappt Stainless Steel - $39
Specifically developed for Apple Watch. Crafted from a single piece on steel, then finished with details to guarantee full compatibility with your steel Apple Watch.

● Adappt Gold - $290
Our luxury proposal for your gold Apple Watch. Adappt Gold is strong like steel, that build its core, and beautiful like gold, which surrounds it all.

● Adappt Edition - $3450
It's our limited edition. Only five Adappt Edition are available. They are built in Milan, in Italy, capital of vogue and lux, in 18-karat yellow or rose gold.
Every Adappt Edition spots an engraved number, from one to five, which makes it unique all over the world.

Adappt can also come with a few different band options. Hit the link below for more details. There's 35 days left for the project to meet its goal of $50,000.

Like I said, another piece of junk that's expensive.

This is awesome because when I go diving I wear a wetsuit, and I need a wristband much longer than the longest that Apple makes, otherwise it's too small to go over the wetsuit. So I'm going to be the coolest scuba diver in the group, with my Apple Watch! Now if Apple can just make a dive app to work with Health, and monitor my nitrogen saturation, and maybe a fish finder too, it'd be absolutely phenomenal. Please Apple start working on this!!!! I'm in Boston, fax me for more ideas!! I love Apple!!!!

Diving with the Apple Watch sounds like a bad idea. From their homepage: "Apple Watch is splash and water resistant but not waterproof. You can, for example, wear and use Apple Watch during exercise, in the rain, and while washing your hands, but submerging Apple Watch is not recommended. Apple Watch has a water resistance rating of IPX7 under IEC standard 60529."
