If anyone has a spare link bracelet lying around, it might be worth looking into gold plating services. That’s probably the closest you’ll get to an OEM gold link bracelet.

Another band I never hear people talk about, but is a great summer band with a lovely purple hue. I think it’s called extra grape or added indigo or something, can’t remember, but it’s another one that deserves a spot in everyone’s roster especially for outdoor use.

Ultra Violet sport band, goes great with the ceramic
Looking brilliant on the ceramic. I think the name was dirty plum or barely bruised.

Whatever it is, it’s easy to match.

So even better than shoes, the new Nike bras provide a unique insight into what Nike might be pairing up for fall. I know we all love when they’re both colors...hyper pink/pink foam seems a worthy more day-wear successor to pink blast. 🖍@jeremyfernie

Never would have pegged you as having such petite ankles, sis

Gimme gimme gimme!

The band, not the bra. Wouldn’t imagine looking at bras all day could be so productive!

Gotta keep them thin to be able to wear my extra celestial teal straps. Always skip ankle day.

I dig the vibrant pink. Been too long since we had full pink nike bands.
 
I have almost all official iPhone X ones. Have no ideas what to do with them now.

Exactly my point. While you can wear a band from 2015 and from 2020 today, it's not possible with a case from the same years. You know why.

I need to find someone who will sell me one of these lol

Only half the fun for everyday's use, since the bands are locked (theft protection), but it's nice as a display for show off bands you don't wear.

I would just use it to display the bands I don’t plan to wear for a while. That one wasn’t secured down, so I was able to see how they’re locked on. It’s just a clip you squeeze open, and they can be pulled out.

I’d buy that strap!
 
What did you use for the polish? It came out great, wish I knew how scratched up it was prior. My SS has no significant scratches and still looks pretty much perfect but definitely curious on what your process is for future knowledge.

I just use cape cod polishing wipes. 30 seconds to a few minutes per side of scrubbing back and forth thoroughly. My watch had micro scratches that were visible when the sun or light was hitting directly and it got rid of those. Still a few small scratches left but very hard to see.
 
Hey guys!

I’m making an archive of Concept Art for future Watch Bands and would appreciate some live sent that way as well!

I love to reference and look back at all the concept art @jeremyfernie & @athousandbands make, so I decided to put all of the concept Art I could find in one easily accessible public space! This thread is meant to serve more as an archive rather than a discussion room, but discussion is ultimately welcome, provided it’s on topic!
 
Hey, do only some of the Nike sport bands say "Assembled in China" on the edge of the non-buckle side? I have some that do and some that do not. All of them have the S/M or M/L size marking visible.

My Midnight Turquoise does. Bought direct from Apple.

Actually now that I look, every fluroelastomer band I have has that mark.

🤔

I think I may have answered my own question. Apparently, they only stamp that on one of the bands (the M/L half).

Is that the M/L half? Does the S/M have that stamp too? That picture I posted of my Midnight Turqouise was also directly from Apple.

Pretty sure it’s only on the M/L for 42/44mm bands and the S/M for 38/40mm.
