I've been making and wearing these leather bracelets with my watches for around a year now (See pics) There is no noticable change in time keeping, but my friend recently asked if the neodymium magnets in the clasps might eventually affect the watch. I'm pretty sure that my wist is thick enough to negate any negative (pun intended) affect but I thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone here has a more scientifically accurate answer.

The magnets themselves are mostly attracted to each other to connnect the two halves of the bracelet, but do have a small amount of lateral pull, just enough to pick up a few paperclips.

Can you wear such a bracelet with an Apple watch?

Couldn't say for sure but I tried a Pebble steel and it worked fine.
