Discounts / Sales on OEM bands

thadoggfather said:
How much do you guys estimate you spent on bands and how many ya got?

I just did inventory, excluding gift cards as 'free money' and cheating to a degree, im at 31 bands and ~$750. I honestly dont feel as bad anymore, I was thinking it would be worse. Considering I usually flip my old watch to pay for a new one, or hand one down or something, and had S0->S1, S4, S7 cheapest model I think I've gotten my 'moneys worth' for enjoyment and fashion rotation haha

Ill go with the logic of, 31 bands 31 days in a month on average (sometimes less) a band a day for every occasion. Priceless.

Even though some I haven't worn in ages.

Whatever though honestly, I thought the damage was going to be worse haha. A handful of retail price bands and you're already a chunk of the way what I spent so whatever there too :D

Haha I just learned about that app the other day awesome for a well rounded knowledge of what’s out there

May I ask, gulp, how many bands you have?

Surely it can’t be a thousand unless you have multiple duplicates :p

No the handle is based on a song, looks like about half that including the Hermes bands I’ve marked that I got for my mom.

Beware of this description. The band is not new but heavy worn. I purchased this band and returned due to heavy shine and use. It was definitely not used just to try on.
