Do not ask me how, but I scored a Demo boxed Black Sport Band this morning, from an huge national reseller, for just 96 cents (0,96 euros!).
Repeat: 96 Cents! I don't even know how that's possible, if I didn't have it printed on the receipt I wouldn't believe it myself.
At this price I at least expected for it to be a little damaged, or at the very least used, but it's pristine. It even has the tags on!
Late Christmas this morning.

For italian friends here: it's Mediaworld. Watch out if you can!

Nice. I gave away my black G1, so I need another. Hopefully one pops up on eBay for like $5.

this totally happened to me too, last week, this is my Spearmint Sport Band new and sealed as soon as I opened it:

As you can see the box has the same identical kind of damage. It's 100% legit, I purchaised it from a big reseller, phisically, no shipping involved. So I guess it's just a storage damage, maybe in a weak spot.
The curious thing is that the external box shows no damage at all, just the inside piece.

Yeh, same thing!
Fortunately I purchased it with a big discount so I can't complain. But if I had paid it full price it would have bothered me a little.

So after getting the new watch. It’s out with these bands which I’ll probably throw up on eBay and in with my fave new band Marine green, lavender grey coming tomorrow(from lightning McQueen) the ceramic white band that came with the watch and plum.

Also I can’t bring myself to get rid of cornflower and stone.

Still 6 bands so not much of a downsize and I’m sure something will make me build the collection again. This thread is indeed dangerous.

Looks like he's put more up (no idea where he gets them from!):


Price has gone up though, probably because the others sold so quickly. £9 more than I paid.
Hmmm... I can't seem to buy this in the US

Which band color is this? I ordered it from eBay and the photos of it looked much darker. The seller claimed it was gray, but it looks more beige. It says "40mm." Taken with a combination of incandescent lighting and natural light with an iPhone SE if that makes any difference. It did not come with a box. Sorry for the trashy background (literally) - it was taken in my basement as soon as I opened the package.

I just received these two bands today and would appreciate some help identifying the color on the purplish band. The sport band I am guessing is Pure Platinum/White, please correct me if I am wrong (I'm a newb).

I purchased them for $32 and in my enthusiasm I made a rookie mistake and overlooked that they are S/M and I wear a M/L. If anyone would happen to have a M/L strap that they'd be willing to sell me or swap for a M/L please let me know! Thanks

Lavender Gray and Pure Platinum/White, correct.
