OG Yellow is amazing! I like concrete a lot too, it’s actually quite nice for being a “boring” color. Congrats! Looks like a lot of us are getting a dark Olive loop soon!
Got a tip for us?

Nice. I'm a big fan of the Dark Olive Check Woven Nylon, but honestly, I think the inside of the band is even nicer!
Another sun/shade comparison: Pacific green sport band
I tried to get a Dark Olive Nylon from our friends at CeX. Turned out to be a Loop of some sort. I couldn't even identify the colour, but at least it was OEM - went straight back.
Tried to get some Nike SBs from them last week, but they are currently zero for three:
- Violet Dust/Plum Fog - was Smokey Mauve/Particle Beige with the M/L missing
- Black/White - was Black/Grey, M/L missing and A FAKE
- Barely Rose/Pearl Pink - a real doozy this... a Stone SB - at least the pin was 'Rose' Gold, but it was in it's box with 'Stone Sport Band' written on it and obviously no Nike branding anywhere!
Awesome color. Need to pick one up next time I sail out to the pacific!
Thought peacock loop was a nice complement to lime and then also similar enough to my first Hermes, the sample Colvert I got. Until I can find the actual peacock Hermes band, “mallard duck” will have to do...almost birds of a feather...
Very important part of packing for a trip!
Name your price!

I feel personally attacked...
I will not start collecting Hermes.... I will not start collecting Hermes.... I will not start collecting Hermes...

A much more classy solution than my “shovel them into the little amenity kit I got on a Premium Economy flight a couple of years ago” strategy.
You just inspired me to change to my new electric blue band.

Cex are very hit and miss, but have managed to get some cracking deals from them, including on 2017 Prides and Blue Orbit Nikes. Regret selling on the latter now!
Ooof.. the 2017 Pride... last year I ordered a 38mm for my wife - all good, very happy.
This year, I have ordered a total of six 42mm 2017 Prides from them, trying to get the right one. Received two 2018s, three 2019 Loops and one dog-eared 2017 that still smells of someone else’s aftershave.
In the last couple of years, I’ve received a staggering number of Pink Sands from them, claiming to be Pink, Light Pink, Vintage Rose, Flamingo...
Mint was Beryl, Blue has been Azure, Ocean and a couple of fakes and a few Woven Nylons have been Loops.
But... I have got some bargains too...
Could someone explain to me what Cex is?

That’s Cex with a C
Well, in the TV ads they pronounce it as if it were an S... I’m not kidding...
It’s basically a second hand gaming and electronics place. They take in all sorts of stuff for cash or trade-in/vouchers. The range is staggering, but the quality is mixed.
They ‘grade’ a lot of their stuff A,B and C, but I’ve had Grade A bands that look like they’ve been buried for a week or two and Grade Cs that have been virtually mint and boxed.
You can view stuff in-store, but when you buy online, you don’t know what you’re getting - items are dispatched from random stores.
hmm i wonder if they ship to the states, looks like they might have some of the stuff im missing, you said the stuff youve purchased has been in retail packaging?
They don‘t offer international shipping. I wouldn’t pin your hopes on them, the staff are usually nice enough but don’t get paid enough to want to see if a watch band is e.g. Papaya vs Vitamin C, so it’s a bit of a crapshoot when you order. I would really doubt the accuracy of the majority of their listings, you can‘t tell if it’s boxed or not when ordering.
I’m sure some UK members might be willing to order and send over, though high probability they may need returning if you’re looking for exact bands.
Luckily, their returns policy is solid - they even refund the delivery. But yeah, getting a box is a bonus and getting what you think you’ve ordered is a cause for celebration.

Something tells me we’re getting Fall 2017 colors this year... Bright Orange, Purple, Dark/Pinkish Red, & Yellow...
For Nike: Celestial look-alike, something orange or red under black primary, and a dark base with a lighter similar colorway for the secondary... maybe Red/Light Red or purple, they seem to like Dark Beetroot right now.

i think its a travesty that apple hasnt taken two of its biggest brands and combined them, that being nike+ and product(red).... just make it happen already.
