Apple Series 7 Wristband Rash

I have the new series 7 watch and ever since I’ve had it, I have gotten a really bad rash on my wrist. I always make sure the band is clean. I don’t wear it at night to help give my wrist rest from the band, I don’t wear it “too tight or too lose” but no matter what I have tried I always have a rash. I know the obvious answer of getting a new band but what is the point of spending so much money on a watch to get a new band when I like how it all perfectly matches. Is this a normal occurrence? I have never have had a watch give me a rash before and I have always worn one 24/7.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I do not have sensitive skin and am not allergic to anything but apparently this watch.

Is this the Apple Sport Band which is silicone? While it's unusual, there are definitely people who are alergic to silicone. I personally prefer to wear bands which are leather or stainless steel.

I have amassed quite a collection of Apple Watch Bands and have fun changing them out. Here's a picture of the band on my watch today:

Ps: This band is from a company called Longvadon. While not inexpensive, they make superb leather bands for Apple Watch.

And this is another of my leather band collection from a company called Alto:
