i can‘t fit the smaller band in at all, it stops at the first “bumper” dot, and even the fluoroelastomer band itself is a tight fit. Tried on a graphite 6 and space black 5.

Frustrating that if I want an exchange, I will have to phone them, refund and reorder can be done via the app, but not exchange. Is it like that everywhere, or just my part of the world?
 
Would someone be able to post a comparison between Hibiscus loop, Product Red gen 1 loop, and Dragon Fruit loop? I have Dragon Fruit and a Product Red is on the way, wondering how close Hibiscus is to those two.

Pretty obvious, but Hibiscus, Product Red G1, Dragon Fruit.

Here is a combination I don‘t think I‘ve seen pictures of before – 44 silver Stainless with Graphite Milanese Loop. I always liked the Milanese Loop in principle, but I‘m wearing the matching silver one quite rarely because it is very „glitzy“, especially in the sun. The Graphite is a bit more subdued, which I like.

Interesting! I had to double take and make sure that wasn’t the new gold

I actually had the „old gold“ milanese for a while and wore it a few times with the silver stainless Watch, but it was an „aquired taste“. The graphite looks much more natural on it. I would guess the new, more pale gold would blend in a little better with silver Watches than the old, darker gold.
 
I made a visit to the Apple store on Monday to look at the Series 6. I'm upgrading from a Space Grey Series 3 and wanted to see the silver and blue aluminium options.

Managed to get some photos of the new bands.

Silver aluminium with Inverness Green sport loop (unfortunately the loop is for the 40mm watch, and I'm wearing the 44mm)

Blue aluminium with Diver Blue leather loop

I'd never tried on a leather loop before and I absolutely loved it. I also think it looks really good with the blue watch.

Say wha?! Never tried the leather loop? That is my favorite band next to the stainless steel link bracelet.

To be honest I find the Diver Blue Leather Loop absolutely NO match with the Blue Aluminium. It looks awful imho.
I guess a more ‘sparkling’ band color would be a better match to the Blue Aluminium.
 
Well, well. When I joined this group I had 20 bands.
I counted them today. I'm at 34 ... and it's not over yet. Within less than 2 weeks...

Latest additions: Cerulean SL (new), Pollen Woven Nylon, Pure Platinum/Black Nike SB (at around $15-20 each)
I have more incoming... I don't know if I should be proud or seek help. 🤪😜

I love the Cerulean band. I think it's bound to become one of my favorites. Thanks to this group I decided to take a look into sport loops and now I'm hooked. They're the perfect workout but also work from home bands.

Cerulean is very pretty - love the iridescent look.

Edited to add- when I joined this group I had 8 bands! Now I have 33, probably soon to be more!
 
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.

Do you have , or anyone have a comparison of the Blue Horizon with the Delf Blue? Thank you very much again.

This is todays look. Pine Green Sport Band with Evergreen color watch face
They match perfectly!
