Might be something we could add to the Bandbreite app if the information are reliable. This is definitely something a lot of people might be very interested in.
I'm probably the only one… but I would love photos of the markings on the back. The xxmm specification and S/M M/L. The color of the print often helps to identify the color of Bands without packaging. If Apple had simply printed a product number on them 🙄🙈

You're not the only one. Its one of the biggest flaws of the Bandebreite app that it does not have a backing pic. But I'm not knocking @athousandbands for the work has been done already. It's nice getting real world in-the-wild pics for these bands.

That could be a possible future composite, a big old chart with a closely cropped photo of buttons and etching.
 
Decided to give Marine Green an appropriate break-in via a 1/2 mile swim at Aquatic Park in SF:

I’m thinking swimming in salt water might be an easy way to clean a dirty band perhaps? 😄


For the Ultra Violet fans, check out this Lambo that made an appearance as I was getting ready to go in!

Trying to identify this band; it’s got the (Product)™ marking so I guess that means it’s not 2nd gen? It is also marked 40mm. Here it is next to Black Unity and the latest Apple silicone iPhone case with my red 13 Mini —under bright halogen and then natural light on my SBSS:

It’s giving me Red4. Which when new is already matte and not gooey.

We haven‘t gotten a nice comparison shot of Blue Fog yet, did we? In the Bandbreite chart it looks like it sits somewhere between Lilac and Azure, but those hero shots from Apple don‘t always tell the whole story about a colour.

I'm getting my Blue Fog sport band tomorrow. This season I got the Blue Fog and Lemon Zest. Just couldn't resist.

No, I don't own Lilic or Azure for comparison. I'm new to Apple Watch. But I'll try my best to get a good shot of the Blue Fog color at least. It's splendid in the Apple store btw. Subtle, elegant, yet has the right amount of vibrancy. A color hard not to love.

I got mine yesterday. Posting first shots of it today. A comparison with Azure should be possible soon.

Here's some shots under varying (natural light) conditions.

Just scored a kumquat, I was missing an orange band and that would be my first one. I was looking for it, not too flashy, not too pastel, not too pink-ish nor red-ish. I hope in person it looks as lovely as it does in pictures!

It kind of look similar to marigold or is just my impression?

Congrats!
And yes, it's quite close to Marigold but the latter is brighter and more "milky".
