I’m really surprised more of these international collection bands (some of which are now totally unavailable, like GBR and Netherlands) aren’t showing up on eBay yet.

I bet people are sitting on them for a few weeks until we get close to the start of the olympics. Also, a bunch of the sold out bands aren’t shipping until the first week of August. So scalpers probably do not have them in hand yet.

Totally loving it. This Loop is very deceiving. Changes colour to green every time i go out.

I always use a combination of stiff brush, alkoholic disinfectant/cleaner, dish soap or soda and for the remnants the eraser. Often people complain that it ruins the band, but I keep cleaning bands that way all the time and never had any problems. I don't know if they have Even tried it this way before 😅 In 90% of the cases they get their original look again.
A White Gen.1 as an example only half cleaned. Unfortunately, the photo does not show how new the band looks on the cleaned side in relation to the fine surface.

I'm really enjoying the comparison between both sides.

There have been a couple small restocks. I think once some are officially sold out, you’ll see them appear.
 
japan got a restock in the US it looks like, and now italy is sold out, so gotta wait for that to hopefully get a restock.:mad:
 
you got all bands (except AUS) in 40mm? Is it your size?
Yeah it was the last one I ordered, went a little whimsical. My Hermes and Nike will fit it. Figured I might as well get one for them. Already have Brazil for that color scheme in 40mm. AUS seems like a good fit for silver stainless steel, doesn’t have any white, which makes a band a must for my 40mm ceramic.

but why did you get 44mm AUS if your size is 40?
 
My S6 44 Ti with the LLoop in California Poppy. Believe it or not, IRL the LLoop and the dress are the same hue(?) with the dress being more intense. And, to top it all off, the AW face matches the colors in the jacket. I am not skilled with color correction, so this comes straight from my 8+. [Cross-Posted in the AW thread]

No idea what happened over here in the U.K. today, but within about 2 hours, we went from only two bands being unavailable online to 16! Maybe the news about the Olympics going to no spectators reminded everyone these bands exist 😅
