38/40mm open box hyper grape band for $85 and 44mm Hermes black M/L only for $140. Also 38mm celestial teal but it isn’t a good price really.

This guy blocked me for telling him his prices are high lol

(He was asking $85 for a second gen red & $65 for a green 2015)

Anyways, if anybody wants a free 42mm Classic Buckle, I left mine at the airport...

Never bought from him but obviously he posts all the time. He’s on the higher end of the spectrum but i personally think he’s within fair market pricing.

How did you lose a classic buckle at the airport?
 
I bought this band on Poshmark. Should I put it in a washer on a Super heavy cycle?😲 may be soak it in Heavy Duty degreaser for a day or two?🙄

Questions for the experts:

  1. Blue 1st gen (which I don't need, I have) - or blue 2nd gen, which I want:
    O1CN01EjT4721tfWscwo44Z_!!111865929.jpg_400x400.jpg
  2. What blue does this look like? This seller doesn't use part numbers for clarity and the Chinese name translates as simply, Dark Blue. Other sellers using officially translated names/part numbers peg this particular colour as "Denim Blue" but it looks nothing like the hero shots, and doesn't really fit the timeframe of their other stock. Could this be Royal Blue?

The thought that you paid $7 to priority ship this to your front door keeps me up at night.

I say take it to your nearest Home Depot and inquire about their various compact wood chippers.

The absolute best way to compare colors is by how closely the lugs match the main band color. First one has dark lugs that don’t match well, so I’m guessing 1st gen. Second band is a darker non match as well. I don’t have my blues to compare in front of me, but I’m going to go with potentially Cobalt?

Edit: Nevermind, too light to be Cobalt.. Maybe Delft or Ocean? I’m not great with 42mm lugs vs 44mm lugs.

Ocean would also fit, I guess for the darker one. [edit: that said, looking at people's pictures in this thread, I'm now convinced it's delft] Either way, I like the colour so I might pick it up if it's still around in a couple of weeks. The lighter one I can probably ask the seller what the part number is as it's BNIB... it's more expensive though, accordingly, so I'll hold off on that.

Next up though is a flat silver/volt I found. I'm a sucker for Volt.

But, why were you changing bands in the airport? Which band was better enough to leave that one behind! 😦
My classic buckle was getting all dirty so I put on a sport band instead. I meant to grab the classic buckle but just didn’t I guess.
