I've been wearing my Pebble watch with the Snap Link Watchband. The design by mingofmongo is great, However, after using this watchband for several months, I noticed two problems, with the Snap Link design: a)The watchband is not very flexible because the links are pressed together, and b) after several months of use the spikes connecting the links become weaker and occasionally the links are disconnected. This new design suggests solutions for both issues: The links are printed already interconnected so they can never be detached, unless they are broken. The interconnect mechanism leaves gaps between the links so the resulting strap is much less rigid and more 'flowing', as seen in this video:

I've uploaded an STL file of a single link in order to explain the interconnection mechanism. The model was designed using Sketchup. I published a link for the original Sketchup files.
