I don't agree that a large obnoxious band = bad cigar.
not say large equals bad but when la Serena came out I think they made those bands large to draw attention to them. La serena is a good point the band may have got your initial buy but if the cigar is bad you probably wouldnt be buying a box. I think for each option you mentioned there are couple others that had elaborate or fancy bands trying to polish a turd.
