Since the new Watch 4 series has Body Index Measurement capability.  It requires user to touch the case (or 2 buttons) with the OTHER hand, as so to create a circuit THROUGH the body.  My concern is, is using a METAL watch band (Links or Mesh), it might be grounding the watch case to the same wrist wearing the watch, and mess or the measurement.

So until answered, think twice before buying metal band.

I now have watch, but no metal band.  I THINK it will work, as buttons seem to be insulated from case.  (See the red and black bands on buttons where it enters the case.)
