It looks like a piece of modern art to me, which I could go either way on. I think it’s interesting. Definitely going to yoink multiple maybe possibly. Are you grabbing the watch too?
Got a tip for us?

I’m not sure if I’m grabbing the watch too. I might grab one if I can snag it tax free from the store in Christiana Mall.
I think stripes would look too much like a flag (Malawi, Libya, South Sudan, Kenya etc.) whereas the smoosh is more akin to ’unity’.
But it’s based on the Pan-African Flag. I personally would like it to look like that flag. Like I said though, I’m still buying it.

Just updated, the watchface doesn't look bad. It looks god with my Product Red G3. I'm curious to see it paired with its band, even if I'm not gonna buy it 'cause I wouldn't wear it.
Can't wait for your pictures!

Lucky. Might have you pick one up for me and ship it. Cant imagine shipping being as much as the $40.75 in tax.
I’m thinking there will be a little variation, but not too much. Like, the exact location of color change will be different, but generally you won’t get a band that’s 70% green and 30% black.
Is it just the lighting or is that face available in colors other then Red/Green? I like that aqua/pinkish combo much better! (Yeah I get the meaning behind it being Red/Green, but that combination doesn't appeal to me aesthetically.)
Just the room lights. But it'd be nice to have more combo on this watchface, like the Minimal Duo, but I guess green+red+yellow on a black background are the whole point of the watchface, so it's alright.

You're not. It's interesting, but I am not interested in it. Curious to see how popular it becomes.
the band as stripes would have looked incredible!But it’s based on the Pan-African Flag. I personally would like it to look like that flag. Like I said though, I’m still buying it.

What if they do the Olympics bands like this and that’s why the loops were axed?But it’s based on the Pan-African Flag. I personally would like it to look like that flag. Like I said though, I’m still buying it.

While I’m thinking it’s more and more likely Apple won’t mind the SKU bloat of sport bands and silicone loops (I think some people just want the super snug fit)...I could also see a world where they stop releasing new sport bands but keep around a group including Hermes/Titanium and/or default colors for pack-in.
I just hope the well hasn’t been poisoned by the sizing fiasco, because my word what a fail.
Seeing it on my own Watch, I really like the Unity watchface in red and green. It has a very cool 80s vibe. For now I‘ll wear it with a half Spearmint, half Raspberry strap.
Edit: Or even with a half Bambou, half Red Classic Buckle. 🤩

Now imagine it in pink/blue

Actually, they should re-design the flag to look like the strap. That would look way more funky and unique and they would be the first to use an Apple design completely free of charge.
