I can’t afford Hermès anyways. You get 5 bands and you’ve already spent over $1,000. Not only that, I have absolutely no idea on what’s worth what. It’s probably best if I just stick to leather loops and classic buckles for my formal bands.
Well, I meant for the pics to help you find it on the sport loop. It’s in the same place, just check both sides. Some of my loops have it on the plastic but adhered to the band, and some of them have it on the other side with the loop. It’s definitely hard to see, but if it’s there, it’s a real band.
Yeah, I’ve been stalking around some Hermès listings, but again I don’t really know what it’s all worth so I’d have to send it to @athousandbands for a better opinion. We’ll see.
My collection is coming along pretty great. Where did we last leave off? Which bands was I just getting in?
Why can't they be 42/44mm.... Why, why, why?
Just kidding (not really) I'd be too tempted to buy them, when I'm supposed to be saving for AW S6, and the fall bands.
That is in my country. Don't mind to ship it to you but shipping fee might be half or nearly of retail price.
I think you underestimate the disease... sometimes we’re willing to do...things...for the band we’re missing...
I'm sure you'll find a few souls around here (present company included) who'd be happy with that.
Shopping spree perhaps? At least that’s what my package tracking app thinks.
Today I should be receiving my cheap Rose Red and Blue horizon!
Also Waiting for:
$13 Cornflower SB
$70 Hyper Grape Loop (joining the CLUB!$!)
$35 Brown Leather Loop (first real LL)
Smokey Mauve/Particle Beige I bought awhile back that’s finally making it’s way to me this week! 😉
Then after all that, wallet silence....
Bonus comparison- Clementine is Pink’s orange cousin.

$13 for Cornflower? Not jealous.
And yeah, I was a bit disappointed with Clementine too. I’d be surprised if anyone can guess what colors these are.
Looks awesome man! Welcome back.
Took some time off myself. Good to clear your head from time to time.
Also amazing pickup on the Hermes front!!! Its a black hole.... I cannot wait to see what releases in the coming weeks. My spirit is more ready than my bank will ever be.
You were getting into nylon buckles and had found a Chinese New Year one that looked super unusual.
I’m also all over a Lilac 42 with expensive shipping. Everything I buy has expensive shipping unless it’s a rare local find or Chargerstore.
XV. Fall 2019
(worst sport band season?)
(these Apple loops are the ultimate collector rorschach test, it’s either overwhelming/blinding brilliance or Apple’s biggest mistake, especially if like me you believe they will keep this pattern for the next year)

Yeah the 2-tone loops are certainly polarizing. The only one I like is the Alaskan Blue, and that’s mainly because it mirrors the 2-tone blue of the Solar Dial face really nicely. What has been more interesting to me about this particular season has been its staying power. To my knowledge, this is the first season that has stayed on Apple’s website (even if not always in stock) for a full year. I don’t know how much of that has to do with COVID. But it is an interesting change from the “buy it now before it sells out in a month” mentality of past releases.
Today’s band — 2019 Close Your Rings loop. Love it — although I wish the red “showed” a bit more when you look at the watch head-on.
And yes, I earned it.

Ah, yep! Chinese New Year certainly is an interesting one. I think @athousandbands and a few others picked one up as well.
Here it is on top of my pile of woven nylons. Black stripe is in another state and I’ll go to pick that one up this weekend.
I’m on track to complete the Nike series by the end of the month. After that, I think I’m only 10 or so away from having all the nylons excluding Olympics. Just passed 100 bands a week or two ago!
Oh yeah, and I got a few more watches. Love my Ceramic!
Saddle Brown Leather Loop. Nice, clean and classy band and pairs nicely with the Stainless Steel. (I think it would look awesome with Gold Stainless steel as well)

Can you post a picture of your orange stripe woven nylon? Hard to see from that picture but it looks like the stripes on your band are much more blue than the band I received last week. The stripes on my band are straight up purple.
can you tell me about the Chinese New Years nylon? when you say interesting... I've tried to find as many photos online on it to make a decision one way or the other but I've only found a few. does the gold shimmer in the light, is it more red IRL(to where the gold gets lost, or does it just look yellow when seen from afar)? its so hard to tell which way it goes from the online photos.
It shimmers like crazy

I’m hardly the first lord or lady of the manor to get the Chinese New Year prototype but figured I could be the first to showcase in gold. Seven days from purchase! Has to be a Chargie land-speed record! So high-end. Don’t even wanna buckle it or wear it ever.
