Croc Embossed Leather 20mm Apple Watch^® Watchband

I really wanted to love this watch band and I unfortunately despised it. It literally made me angry! The color matches the red Apple Watch perfectly. However, the “leather” (is it leather?) is stiff and not at all giving, the inside of the band that sits against the wrist is plastic and uncomfortable; see pictures where there is something metal sticking from the inside of the band; the watch and band kept turning on my small wrist and I had to tug it back to the right position numerous times a day despite being on with a snug fit. Worst of all is that the end of the band would not stay tucked inside of the strap keeper. The band end kept popping out and I kept tucking it back all day every day for about a week until I couldn’t tolerate it. I returned it and bought something else much less attractive that works better for me. The pic w the band sticking out is what happened repeatedly each day.
