It came with a silver pin when purchased separately. The only way to get it with a gold pin was to buy it bundled with a watch. Never came with a space gray pin.

If you want a similar band for your SG, look around eBay for a 2017 Gray sport band (marked just “Gray” on the packaging). It’s not as brown as Cocoa, but does still have a bit of brown in it. And it is one of the few sport bands that has a black pin instead of silver.

Have you had good experience buying Apple OEM bands on eBay?

For instance, there's a vendor that sells the 'Gray' band, but without a box, so I'm not sure how legit they are.

The seller chargerstore sells loose bands and they are legit. Many users here have bought many bands from him over the years. Can’t necessarily vouch for any other sellers. But you can look at this thread for guidance on how to tell if the band you are looking at is a genuine Apple band.

All the sport band colors are a pass for me so far. Amethyst is pretty but I’m pretty confident I would wear Plum much more often. Much more curious about new Nike



Same here! Nike bands and Nylon sport loops are my go-to so I’m definitely anxious to see what the new colors will be!
