Every Apple Watch band Apple released. Ever.

[JBlass421]

Thanks for all the feedback guys! Starting safe and ordered an Anthracite/Black Nike Sport Band

 

[JBlass421]

It’s funny...i only got it because it was $30 off from Nike dot com and because they weren’t yet selling the midnight fog loop stand-alone...I immediately noticed the special Volt color option at the top of the wheel on Apple faces but it was a whole year later when I realized the Nike faces had all the Nike colors and now I couldn’t imagine not getting a Nike watch for my next aluminum! Here are all those faces again for anyone interested:

That’s 29 faces I thought you said there were 27 Nike Sport Bands

A few bands never made it past prototyping is my guess.

Celestial Teal is definitely the Ultra Violet of the Nike collection.

i disagree i think blue orbit/gamma is nicer and harder to find.

 

[Cotypubby]

I wish I had known when I bought mine in Dec that there was no difference in price between the regular and Nike models, and that Nike came with more faces! I woulda got the Nike one. I thought Nike was either more $$ or just for exercise and the Apple Store person didn’t tell me any different. oh well

 

[mikedis]

What’s a reasonable/average price for a new 42mm Light Bone?

Yeah so this is why I’m always hyping up total orange and terra blush and wolf gray, they are mysterious watch face colors without a watch band release. Mostly those first two, as we are still waiting for those colors in general. You might be able to find a wolf gray band if you ask the right (yellow) Peeps™...👀

It used to be the exclusive home of the Nike Run Club app, but that is now available to all, if I recall correctly.

Agree! I found it in 38mm but nothing in 42mm!

Orbit/gamma is also insanely soft for a band of its vintage (neon/glow colors must naturally be) whereas all the winter18 Nike bands are hard shinemonsters. Maybe with the exception of sm/pb

The watch face colors without a corresponding band are really old though? Maybe those colors were meant to come out, got close enough for the software devs to make the faces, and then dropped last second?

My blue orbit doesn’t shine so much as it discolors. Bought it used for $35 but the M/L & Pin are pretty bad. Not even my trusty toothbrush could get it out!

Today’s summer ‘17 band of the day — Obsidian / Black Nike Sport Band.

Not much to say about this one, other than I find it more interesting than Anthracite / Black. What is it they say about damning through faint praise? This one at least looks attractive in strong sunlight, even if it looks pretty bland most of the time.

Don’t sell yourself short! I find obsidian very special compared to the dark Apple blues

Found a used 44mm Nike hyper grape in chargerstore. Might make the husband buy it for me.

 

[mikedis]

The $35 “Broken” SS Watch arrived. Booted right up. Final serial number check supports the idea that it was never activated. Running WatchOS 1.0

What a steal.

I wonder what percentage of Chargerstore’s revenues are represented in this thread?

I really would prefer a new, sealed one, but beggars can’t be choosers. 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️ lol

that is an incredible deal. congrats!!!

 

[Apple_Robert]

Nah, I'm just pumped about finding them. Like a kid with his first bicycle.
AliExpress you say? Hmmm...

Be careful. I started out the same way and ended up with practically every Apple Watch band made. And 99% was bought new. That little foray cost several thousand dollars and almost all of the bands were sitting in a closet still sealed. After getting almost all of the bands, I got tired of collecting them. I also got concerned that as soon as Apple changes the Apple Watch casing (and its coming) the bands I had worked to collect will not really be of use to me and many others after upgrading. Over time, I sold most of my collection and now just get a band or two here and there that strikes my eye.

I find myself telling myself that all the time, but it hasn’t stopped me yet. I’ve only just begun though! Help!

Totally agree. Next time around I’m going Nike!

In case you didn’t know, I just discovered that you can now use iTunes gift cards/your Apple ID balance to purchase products like watch bands at the Apple Store.

Mind = blown

Definitely not! And why? The Nike Watches are not available at the release day. You must to wait some more days!

 

[jwlbel]

They release the Nike watches 2 weeks later. Those 2 weeks are brutal to wait but once you have it, it is worth the wait for the extra faces

I wish the Nike Watches came in stainless steel. I would buy it so fast.
