It’s so not fair. I deserve Obsidian Mist!

Stupid Apple with their stupid non-fitting stupid Nike stupid bands and their stupid box
 
The deed is done! This is the most I wanted to pay, but not as much as I was willing to pay. My max bid was $301. For now at least, I'm done.

Look, I’m really glad you found one, and hey, if you’re fine with that price you better rock it, but I just think you could have waited a week or two longer and found it for half that. Patience, friends...
 
Inverness green braided loop. Feels very comfortable. But I can’t tell if a size 5 is too big for me. Does your solo loop slide up and down your wrist and you raise and put down your arm?
A size 4 doesn’t move but this size 5 moves up and down.

It looks like it fits comfortably. I tried one in store, 5 felt right, 4 started to feel tight and noticeable. I have a 5 coming Monday!

Patience? Listen to you! :) Not my strong suit. I've been searching for this exact band - without the buckle - and was getting more and more frustrated. Now that I have one it will be my daily wear. I'm still basking in the glow of obtaining my grail band. Did I over-pay? Definitely. But I'm ok with the premium to get it now.

Don’t let the naysayers get you down. When you’ve gotta have a band you’ve gotta have it. As long as you’re happy it doesn’t matter what you paid. Congrats on the pickup man.
 
Guys, this is by far the most exciting day in my life. Probably. Not even 48 new bands released on an evening can top today. Probably. Nah, maybe.

I am thrilled to announce "Bandbreite", the app for your ever-growing band collection, is now available on the App Store! 🥳

Back in October 2016 I started this thread. Time flies. 600 pages later the chart is now an app. This is amazing and also unbelievable!

I want to thank all of you guys. A lot of you have supported me in the past answering weird questions or help me to figure out the last detail of information missing on the chart. I really hope the app helps you to organize your collections and to enjoy your bands even more.

Thank you to everyone who participated in our first beta cycle too! We've heard you, and we have some great ideas for upcoming updates. If you still have any requests or feedback, DMs and email are open to everyone, so feel free to send them at any time.

Talk to you soon!

Great app! Thank you and your team for the work done! Please add the ability to create multiple collections and the ability to rename them.

Your note yesterday makes sense now! This is a FANTASTIC app.

My only thing to add right now would be the ability to select whether you have the 44mm, 40mm or both. My band count is lower than it should be where my wife and I have doubled-up!
 
A couple hours ago I snagged a new/unopened 40mm Deep Navy Blue Sport Band on Mercari for $20 + shipping. It must have come with an S6 the seller bought, and they didn't want it. I'll happily take any of the new Fall bands for $20 in new/unopened condition.
Does it fit in your watches nicely? I am afraid of buying this season's bands second hand (unopened or not) from my earlier experience. Will suck not to be able to return a band that doesnt fit.

Thanks! Wow, great idea. 😉. I am happy to tell you, that is exactly what we're working on. It just doesnt made it into v1.0. The widget is still in very early stage, but we hope to have a prove soon that it works: You will receive random suggestions from your collection.

If I can riff on this, and offer a few other thoughts on the app....

- First of all, I love the app.
- I love this idea of a random suggestion from your collection.
- I'd love to be able to "log" what I've worn on a given day with the app... and in turn, have the random selection offered up be something I haven't worn in a while.
- Further to this -- I'd love to be able to sort a view of my collection with more options. By band type, yes. But also by release date, or by date worn if the above "logging" is available. Do I do all of this currently with a Numbers sheet? Yes. Would it be cooler to do it with the app? Yes.
- One point of clarification on the collection -- am I wrong in remembering a 1st-gen midnight blue classic buckle that was not of the Edition variety -- IE: a midnight blue "mashed potato" classic buckle released in spring 2015 with silver hardware, alongside the 1st gen black? I might be wrong here.
- A button to quick dial a psychiatrist when you're browsing the app and find yourself wondering just how high you'd bid for a Gold link bracelet.... ;)

265 bands. Will likely be 266 today if I guess right on the solo loop sizing.

I don't have a problem. I can quit anytime I want. (After I collect 'em all.)
