The Juuk Locarno falls in between the two extremes. It is made by a Chinese manufacturer – that (surprise, surprise) also produces bracelets for high-end Swiss watches – it comes with a price tag of $245 for either the brushed or the polished versions, and promises to offer quality of execution comparable to that from Apple (if not better, which we'll see soon enough) at a more than considerable saving of $200.
The Locarno has a 5-link construction that, to me, looked way too busy in images, especially when compared to the sleek and clean lines of the Apple Watch case. In person, and especially on the wrist, it is a different story altogether: on the brushed version (featured in this review), the brushed surfaces have a satin finish sheen to them, with the angled semi-circle segments either reflecting plenty of light or appearing very dark, creating a lot of constantly changing contrast as you move your hand. At first, the more complex aesthetic of the 5-link construction reminded me of (by today's standards, quite badly made) bracelets that we saw on watches from the '80s or so, but again, the moment you lift it out of the box and put it on the watch, its weight and (to the naked eye) genuinely nicely finished surfaces help you forget that image really quickly.
