I want another modern buckle but haven't decided which color yet. It's between the dark blue or black. I'm leaning towards dark blue. At any rate I probably have plenty of time to make my decision. :rolleyes:

I really like the midnight blue. I chose it over the black because the black classic is less expensive and actually looks pretty nice. My son has that one, so I can wear it if I want.
 
There is a size small soft pink modern buckle band on eBay with a starting bid of $249 and no bids yet. Someone got the wrong size band on their watch and is selling just the band in new condition.

I saw that. I need a medium. Maybe Shanghaichica could use a small?
 
It's crazy that the modern buckle bands aren't available yet. Availability of the watch itself is down to 3-5 days, so maybe they'll be in-store soon.

I really don't think they make very many of them. That's why they shipped these watches last.
 
I called in today to ask about in store availability and the apple employee told me they had the buckle in store at one point already. Anywho, looking forward to getting a brown modern buckle
 
Modern buckle watches are finally shipping and in-store, but the bands are still unavailable.

I had the same experience when I was at an Apple store. Several employees said they had the modern buckle band in my size but it was currently out of stock. One had me try on a different size while another went to see if they still had that size - they didn't. Then they said they could order it online for me, but when they went online they were surprised to see that it was unavailable as it obviously always has been.

I moved on from modern buckle. I found a leather band from a high quality brand that honestly I think looks a bit better for me and didn't cost the extra $100.
