Every Apple Watch band Apple released. Ever.

Actually, secondhand on mercari. Wasn’t a gold buckle though, just silver. Shouldn’t change how it locks in though.

Thats the only band of my 70-something collection that gives me problems. All the others work exactly as you would expect them to. Wonder what makes that one band so tight?

I just say gold buckle to indicate that it’s a prototype or whatever. And you’re doing this on the first body style, right? That’s strange because at least the shape is right whereas the s4 body hole is less forgiving to the woven nylon lug.

And speaking of seafoam, outside photos would be greatly appreciated!

No sun as the Cali June gloom rolls on, but sea foam still pops! Can report I don’t like it on gold as previously pictured up thread.

Yep, S1. Released right around the time The band would’ve been new I believe. Weird.

Thought that hair was a crack in your ceramic first time I saw it. Crisis averted!

Thanks!! It looks awesome with the ceramic, as most sport bands do! I’m still undecided about it as it looks a bit too close to white. I’ll keep thinking about it.

The sun poked through for a literal second...couldn’t even get a second shot from a better angle in...no lucky eyelash this time...

That's actually why I decided to get it. I don't have a white band and it can have different appearances depending on lighting, bands like that I think are pretty cool. Almost white, greenish, bluish and in some lighting almost glow-in-the-dark green that's not actually glowing.

So funny, I always think of it as always being sunny in Cali! Hope the June gloom lifts soon. And thanks for the photo 🖤

Yes I also like chameleon bands. I already have a white band, but I don’t have turquoise or beryl so I think that this one might fill a gap for me as long as it isn’t too close to white. Looks like the colour is still clear and bright though.

Yeah sometimes it burns off like a normal marine layer and then sometimes its just this bright white dome that turns everything into a photography studio all day (that does not help with irl band impressions!). Californians like to scoff at outsiders’ expectations of how sunny it is here, as a long-ago transplant I fall somewhere in the middle...

I don’t have nor have I seen Beryl in the flesh but I think if you have neither it nor Turquoise this one is a no brainer. The 2020 glowy bands are not to be missed...

Yes I’m also thinking along those lines as well. It’s slightly back ordered in Canada right now - delivers July 9 to 16 while the others are scheduled to arrive much sooner so it’s definitely a popular band.

I have one last question today about band comparisons if someone is able to provide input - would anyone be able to comment on whether world indigo/lime blasts reads as its own band entirely or does it look like a lighter version of hyper grape?

First shot is Hyper Grape, Desert Sand/Volt and finally World Indigo/Lime. Second is World Indigo Lime over Hyper Grape.

Apple is kind of genius because while they all look similar from a distance, they are definitely different but a subtle different up close. This appeases the groups who miss out on one of the previous and is discernible enough to those of us who have problems, er uh collect bands.

Ah thank you. I can see the green coming through on the WI/LB. Lol @ us who have problems/collect bands 😊

Sorry last post today I swear, but as a newly-minted two-tone completist, I got very curious about matching the alternate colors to their sport band. Does anyone have beryl and khaki loop? Red raspberry and product red g2 loop? Pink sand g1 and pomegranate loop?

Makes you wonder if a sunshine sport band or whatever the “midnight blue g2 purple is” sport band aren’t in the offing.

Probably an aftermarket gold plating. Pretty sure the OEM edition bands had matching gold lugs on the bottom side, where in the first photo you can see it’s silver.

I only have a few sport loops and matching them to my bands isn’t a path I’ve gone down (yet lol). WRT sunshine, it looks like a mix of cactus and seafoam to me, but I don’t know what the yellow is. Is that what you mean by a sunshine sport band - a new yellow?

Yeah I’m focused on the yellow there...blues interest me less as there’s just so many so it’s less fun and less the sense of Apple winking at us. I’ve been told about that cactus match...don’t have the band yet for the pic though...super cool.

Like I keep saying about yellows.... Would KILL for an inverted Black/Volt where the band was volt and the perforations are black. I’ll take that in any configu actually. Lime Nike was such a bummer this year.

Awesome pic too. Making the Modern Buckle look CLEAN in Lilac.

They are very different.

Exactly. Some of the pastel bands “glow”, those are my favorites.

My 2 Hermès band collection + the one that I want (Étoupe) 😂😂😂

I hope for the series 6 they will release a new color for the deployment buckle. I would love the Etoupe color or a dark blue or dark green.

The etoupe was once discontinued for 2 seasons I saw and after that it returned on sale again. I hope it happens the same cause is a basic color, just like white an black sport bands.

I think it might come back sometime. Although on French Ebay there are some slightly used ones.

I’m on the same boat with you. That would be such a great band. Volt/Black.
