Every Apple Watch band Apple released. Ever.

[athousandbands]

I woke up in a cold sweat today and realized where I had seen the Northern Blue face color before. I’ve finalized my projection. I think it’s going to be the color of the Celestial Teal Sport Loop lugs. So a darker, more blue, less saturated Cactus, and yet maybe a lighter Celestial Teal Sport Band? I’d love for it to be a more vibrant version of any of these bands but we know Apple and we know what winter signifies...

Today’s band... the second from a trio of bands that never were. It’s like Obsidian Black / Mist. But it’s different. I’m sure it has a name, which in and of itself is an accomplishment.

For a watchband that doesn’t exist.

Our spooky Haloweek tour of The Ghosts of Bands That Never Were will conclude tomorrow with a band so terrifying, there will be medics on hand in this thread for when readers inevitably faint out of terror.

I honestly wish Apple would have done an orange/purple nike of sorts. I'll leave it up to @athousandbands to mock up if he so chooses, but man, releasing bands fit for the seasonal holidays would be perfect.

Violet Dust/Plum Fog/Watt-Starved Gold Stainless s4

lol exactly the same thing happened to me. I loved it at first and then it just felt too watered down. I got OG yellow and it hits the spot perfectly.

Yes watered down is it! Bet that OG yellow rocks. Looks like my pollen will head to eBay cause now it’s bothering me!

I love when a plan comes together. Neon Lime sport loop with a new quarter zip I bought on Amazon.

So I’ve had my pollen sport band for a few months now but have only reached for it a handful of times. Maybe it’s because all my other sports bands are so bright, but I’m kind of feeling bleh about the paler pollen.

Anyone else fall out of love with it? It didn’t blow me away when I got it but I wanted something yellow.

I don’t have pollen, but original yellow is my favorite yellow. Mellow yellow is a nice light one, and lemonade is nice too (I don’t have flash but it’s basically the same).

I find OG Yellow a bit too custard, though it is one that we recently picked up for my wife after I hung my bands on the wall and she found it easier than before to decide she wanted some colours I have in her size.

Personally I think Canary - or as it's so close and currently available, Ginger - is the most generic, pure yellow. That said, and having all 8 of them, the ones I tend to wear are Lemon Cream and Lemonade - they are the closest match for two shirts I wear to the office, is why.

Before I looked back at the pic I was like “Amazon really does sell everything”🌬

Crazy how they make all this money annually and still get out of paying billions in taxes.

AW S6 SS GOLD + Coastal Gray Sport Band

 

[nszb]

I've wondered about the part numbers myself, as a number of plain sealed 'mystery boxes' with just P/Ns have turned up on eBay from time to time.

The top one is certainly bright enough to be Vit C, which would make the bottom one either Nectarine or Clementine, given the post-Series 4 box width (too different from the Vit C to be Papaya)

The bands arrived. The bright one is definitely Vitamin C, can't be anything else. What do you think of the other one? Nectarine or Clementine? It has a pinkish tone.

 

[heyyitssusan]

Anyone have the pink citrus? Am curious to see how it would look with the blue.

Been a while since I’ve posted in this thread!

just received my ‘Grey’ sport band from eBay. Released in 2017 I believe! Really happy with it, been after a decent grey band for a while now.

Latest purchase came in.
Can I ask everyone, do you keep your demo boxes? These came in quite dusty and slightly dirty, and since COVID I am thinking of just throwing the boxes away. I keep my boxes for actual purchases from Apple, but I have zero idea what these boxes went through before they got to me.

I've just taken a gamble on a Stainless Link bracelet from CEX here in the UK. Grade B for £75.

Figured the outcome will either be:

1) It's scuffed and a bit dirty but good enough to polish back to life
2) It'll be fake
3) It'll be scuffed well beyond help and not a grade B
4) It'll not even ship (I've had that happen before trying to order a SB link)

My success with CEX has varied drastically in the past from 'as new' Milanese to filthy 'Grade A' sport bands.

Take your bets now...!

I keep all my boxes to store my bands in, so yes, I did keep my demo Flamingo as well.

Chargie arrival today: OG Green ! really happy ! it looks just like I hoped it would: it's a lighter, warmer green tone which in french we call "apple green" ("vert pomme"). Totally matches my newest golf cap.

I keep all my boxes. Upon delivery I wash the box down with a soapy magic eraser then immediately dry with a wash cloth.

If the box has been opened, I wash the bands with soap and water for 20 seconds, like I would my hands. According to Apple support, to disinfect, wipe the band with alcohol.

That’s a lot of work. Is washing the box common? I usually just throw it on a shelf and let it be. I figure if there’s anything on it, it’ll die by itself after a few weeks.

You guys are keeping the boxes... you’ll faint when you see how I store the bands I don’t like and am planning to pass on... (warning picture includes third party bands also)

Today’s band, the final of three aberrations that have found their way into haunting my collection.

A Franktenstein’s Monster of a band created perhaps by a mad scientist combining the front of Black / Volt with the back of Midnight Turqoise / Aurora Green, you can practially see the bolts in its neck. Actually, that’s just the space black pin. Nevermind.

You can put down the torches and pitchforks, villagers — we’ll be back to more normal creations tomorrow, as we check out some new Fall ’20 arrivals.

That looks really nice. I had a feeling that was going to be todays post, based off your last two 😉
