That's my evening gone scouring taobao to see if any more have escaped into the wild...

UPDATE: the answer is no, but I do now have 4 extra watch bands on my "wanted" list that I have found are available for under 50% RRP...

What are peoples' thoughts on toasted coffee/caramel with space grey?
 
Hi there, first time poster! Wondering what your thoughts on the Hermes sport band. I do like the orange and the special engraving on the back of the chrome pin. Sometimes they sell for up to $150.
What do you think about the Hermes sport band especially for that kind of money?

I think if you like it and you can afford it...

doesn't chargerstore sell it cheaper?

First off, welcome!

You’re probably going to get a range of opinions as to whether that band is worth that money. For me personally, no. I only pick up bands that I would actually wear and wouldn’t pay extra for a marking nobody can see when the band is on my wrist. But, there are plenty of serious band collectors who frequent this thread who probably have a different point of view.

At the end of the day, only you can decide if the band is worth that money to you or not. Do be careful here, as there are some real pushers in this thread! You may find your collection unexpectedly doubling in size in no time! 😂

I think they’re selling it for 130. It does seem a bit pricey.

Thanks, glad to be here! Been a long time lurker actually, great how people upload their band, get a better sense of the colour.

whilst I don’t have a vast collection of bands, the collector in me wants the Hermes! But it’a probably an unneeded hole in my pocket.

Ran (well...half walked, half ran) a virtual 5k this morning. Brought out the classic Black/Volt for the event!

I suppose it depends whether they say ‘2020’ on them anywhere - May still get them next year...

If they DO say 2020 on them, there may be Chinese dumpsters full of them...
I doubt they say 2020, if they did the tag would say “JPN 2020” or “JPN | 2020” (Like how the Pride loop says Pride 2019... Apple likes consistency.)

They might have been scrapped last second, just like CNY 2017. If that’s the case, I have a feeling we may see them pop up some time soon, just like CNY.

Nike S6 SGA 44mm GPS ordering woes...

Out of stock all the places I've looked. Apple online & local, Best Buy, Adorama, B&H.

Best Buy has the cell version shipping next Friday...ugh.

Also frustrated by the long shipping delays for the new solo loops & leather links
 
I am thrilled to announce "Bandbreite", the app for your ever-growing band collection, is now available on the App Store! 🥳
Thank you for creating this.
It was a bit hard to find, but a coffee is on its way. Shut up and take my money and all that.

• Would be nice if one could use the wish list in some market conjuncion?
• Not sure if it's doable, but i'd love to get help from my phone camera and your app to find out which of all my blue bands is "Delft", "Linen" etc. ;)

Ooh, like a button to “identify” and it will open your camera and sort of do a split screen between the product photo and your camera feed?
 
The benefits of having an apple store 10 minutes away. They had braided loops but can’t get over that gap (or first batch defect) for the $100 price tag.

I bought a Size 5 Braided loop, absolutely love the look, but it's a bit too snug for me. Local store didn't have a Size 6 in (I'm right between 6 and 7 on the sizing guide), thought I'd get away with one smaller after reading reports online, but need a 6 :( Might be a bit of a wait now for a replacement!
