Does anyone know why only the midnight blue SBs have black lugs?
I think just the really dark colours have black. Aside the ones you've pointed out, and the black bands the only others are Grey, Pacific Green and Cyprus Green.Does anyone know why only the midnight blue SBs have black lugs?
Edit: Now I see that Deep Navy has them too.
Thank you very much!!!
Thank you very much!!!
I think I’m going to need the blue horizon. I’ve had several opportunities to buy it, but I sometimes feel is too similar to others I have.

(...) This community has been one of the few bright spots for me in what has otherwise been a very dispiriting year. I may have to put up with people like that seller out in the rest of the world. I’m not doing it in this thread. (...)
(...) I will say, the lack of a Graphite LB and having already invested in a SBLB have made it much easier for me to decide to stick with my SBSS S5 for at least another year.
Pretty sure you can view the listing you purchased directly before edits, but yeah... it sucks. Anyways, I think it’s time to move on to another topic.And because he tried to claim otherwise, so anyone who bought can open a dispute with eBay:

The description from his original listing claiming the bands to be “Genuine Apple.”
Agreed! I had switched to the SBSS earlier this year when I picked up a S5 for a good price. I had owned silver SS for S2 and S4 and had always wanted to try the SBSS. Since then, I have picked up the SBLB and the SB Milanese, thinking I would use SB for a few generations and keep the bands. Now I’m left with either sticking with the S5 or paying extra for the Hermès or the SBTi. It is definitely disappointing to have lost out on an ”affordable” black SS option though.Very well said, across the board -- and yes, I feel the same re: this thread, so I appreciate you & others trying to safeguard it! As for SBSS, I've been going over it in my head ever since the launch and I still can't shake how deeply upsetting the loss of the SBSS (non-H) is for me, personally. I've had every gen of SBSS except S5. It's my favourite by a long shot, so I guess I'm sticking with it until a good+local S5 option comes up in the future. It'd be a waste to get the S6 SBSS H, since I went and bought the Noir Swift on its own back when it looked like it might be getting phased out earlier this year.
PS To my eyes, no combo looks even CLOSE to as good as SBSS + SBSSLB -- from day 1 through today.
Thanks again for the pic. I totally agree that the Blue Horizon is beautiful. I think I had both I would preferred the Horizon over the Delf.Horizon is a really awesome blue that someone on here suggested I buy and I like it a lot. That doesn’t translate to wearing it a lot however. Delft was the opposite; I really wanted it, and had a false start or two getting it, and while it’s a nice enough blue I don’t like it as much as I thought I would.

Nice! Returned mine because it didn’t fit, but I’ll get around to ordering another some time down the road.Are we back to our regular scheduled bandaholic talk?
Obsidian Mist Nike Sport loop coming in hot! I had to complete the collection w/ the regular Nike Sport band.
Question for anyone who owns a 4th gen classic buckle band: is the buckle attached to the band with a traditional spring bar? I know the 1st-3rd gen buckles were glued on. But, it looks like the 4th gen might use a more traditional design that has a spring bar running through the leather to attach the buckle. I have been wondering if it would be possible to remove the 4th gen buckle and replace it instead with a black buckle that matches my watch. I know it is possible to replace the silver lugs with black lugs. But the 4th gen band seems like it might be possible to replace the buckle too.
Yeah I am wondering if I could use the forked end of a spring bar tool to pop the spring bar loose and remove the clasp like in this video at the 2:02 mark. If you don’t mind, could you also measure the width of the band where the clasp attaches? Trying to figure out if it is 20mm or 22mm wide there.Hard to say. I think it probably has a spring bar inside, but it’s pretty tight to get into it:

Is this the california poppy direct from Apple or is it a third party? I'm still waiting for mine which only comes Oct 21...
It looks much lighter than the official photos which looks orange - Maybe because you took it in direct sunlight?
The sun pic is much appreciated. Has it feeling like the perfect hot yellow Apple has basically never done in any format. Hoping this trickle turns into a wave. Mine says Oct 12!Yes it’s the official Apple.. I would post pictures next to Meyer Lemon... that’s the date for my black one.. this one came earlier that anticipated
I happened to have my Vernier sitting right next to me - it's 20mm wide.Yeah I am wondering if I could use the forked end of a spring bar tool to pop the spring bar loose and remove the clasp like in this video at the 2:02 mark.

Thank you! Might make that a little side project in the next few weeks if I can find a classic buckle for a good price.I happened to have my Vernier sitting right next to me - it's 20mm wide.
