Best Apple Watch Band for Swimming

I just received my Apple Watch 3 ... LOVE IT but I am a little apprehensive of wearing it to swim because of worry about the watch falling off ... what is the best (safest) watch band for swimming?

Apple Watch Series 3, watchOS 4.0.1

Hi


The leather and stainless steel bands are not water resistant, so should not be worn when swimming.


I suggest wearing the Sport Band, which can be cleaned (along with your Apple Watch) and fully dried immediately after swimming, ready for comfortable ongoing wear.
