I found a "Coastal Grey" sport band on eBay this week for $20 and bought it. What they sent me looks like "Dark Grey" and the two halves don't even match! <facepalm>

Neither of those is coastal grey. That looks like gray (2017).
 
My rank speculation:
  1. dark blue (every fall they’ve done one, I guess this could line up with the dark blue iPhone steel)
  2. Purple like the pride band
  3. Good Green™ (think emerald or the mavericks wallpaper)
  4. maybe reboot Stone with either the same name or just replace it entirely with a light but warmer earth tone
  5. “” Pink Sand
  6. if they’re feeling generous with the dirt tones, also Mocha/Butterscotch/Caramel
  7. Tangerine/Pumpkin (more likely winter/spring if they are indeed rebooting defaults on a two year cycle)
Nike:
  1. Anthracite reboot. Keeps the name but actually looks gray, although not too gray b/c it can’t match SGA
  2. White/black replaces PP/B
  3. Black/crimson or black/total orange
  4. Chile red/dark beetroot
  5. Barely volt/white
  6. Valerian blue/ghost green sport loop
  7. Laser orange/wheat sport loop
  8. Dark beetroot/pink foamORhyper pinkORfuchsia sport loop
I feel like they would do a drab blue sport band in the tradition of Royal pulse but I just don’t know that Ash Green, which is pretty much blue, is sexy enough.

I’m hoping you’re totally right. Though that would be expensive for me.

ChargerStore has one more 44mm Ultraviolet Sport Band left for $109. I just bought one for $109 minus the $25 coupon eBay is giving to some accounts right now. If you've been looking for one, this may be the best price you'll find (if you find one at all).

Holy Shnickies! My ChargerStore order arrived in about a week! I'm now the proud owner of an Ultraviolet Sport Band and Nike Spruce Fog/Vintage Lichen (both brand new). I was prepared to wait until October with the USPS the way it is now...
 
Yep, same seller that was advertising "Grapfruit." Stay away!

last week I bought a Band.
the Name was „Grapefruit“. Pictures from the front of the sealed box. Okay. Great. Spent 30€.
what I get was pink sand. The guy didn’t know that there are some difference.
now he put me 20€ back again. I will not spent any more than this for Pink Sand. Here in Germany there are hundreds of them.

There are still quite a few Apple Watch Series 5 Aluminium 40mm & 44mm options available to buy on Apple UK. The 40mm has shipping date of 21-22nd September and 44mm shipping date of 8th-15th October.
 
imagine someone buys a Series 5 mere minutes before the S6 is pushed

Apple updated its Canadian newsroom page at exactly 9am ET, as prophesized. The Earth-shattering news?

Apple updates coding programs and resources for Canadian educators and students

Whyfor you wear troll sunglasses, Mr. Cook?'

You know what Canadian educators and students need? On this, the first day of school, with questions swirling about rising coronavirus infections, and unclear or incoherent re-opening strategies?

Yeah.

That's right.

They need watch bands.
