OK I have to decide fast.....spearmint sport band or teal tint tropical twist Nike sport band?

What would you choose?
Here's both spearmint and teal tint. Teal tint is much harder to find. Get it while you can.

If it’s not marked Product red, I’m gonna guess you have a Product Red G2, as for some reason that one isn’t marked as product red, despite being product red. If it has more of a purple-pinkish color in real life, it’s probably a Rose Red.

edit: looking back at it, it looks like the Summer 2017 second gen red was the one internally known as "Dragon Red" (as per this thread) so you may have a 3rd generation, but it'd have to be marked as 40mm & have Product Red badges to be a third gen... maybe there were multiple names internally for the second gen red based on region?

OK, here is my big comparison ask-- anyone have pine green, cactus, and midnight turquoise? And even peacock leather loop (which I already have) for comparison? OK, OK, I need to just go to an Apple store. I wonder if the one near me has opened back up again-- Michigan is taking lockdown recovery very slowly.

You can check on Apple’s site, it should indicate if your store is open or not. Here in FL, they have shut some down, but at last check the one “near” me is still open.

I think it was pine green, as much as logic dictates he would be rocking the 2020 band and my first thought (albeit shortly before my cactus band arrived in the mail) was that it was cactus. The lighting in the Park gym was too strange to tell, I think.

It looks so light and blue, yes, but is that just the tv lights?

100% Pine Green. Image below shows 2 screen grabs from the event (left + right), along with a Reddit-sourced image of Pine (middle). Apologies for not using my own image as reference, as I don't have my own Pine. Not green enough for my tastes. Cactus & Khaki fill the void (for now, anyways).

I had no idea about gen 2 -"Dragon Red" being the only one that was not labeled. I am a little confused about what band I actually have. I have had it for a long time and back then I did not save my boxes. So I just assumed based on how long I had it that it would be gen 1. I just looked at it and there is no product red stamp on it. Here is the back of my band. So am I correct to assume this would be product red gen 2-"dragon red"

Indigo and Cerulean are two of my absolute favorites, I hope you enjoy them! Also, Royal Blue is a good one to get, I don't have it yet so I'm a bit envious :)
