Anyone with the 40/41 watch have a S/M and the M/L leather link? I have a gift card and only the M/L is available in the color I want. I am wondering if it’s a huge difference.

I don't think any of the colors are recycled?
Incorrect. Plenty colors have been recycled over the years. For instance, Unity Sport Band technically recycled Black from the original "Black" sport band.. same goes for the "Noir" Hermès Sport Band. It's also been seen across the various thread colors in sport loops. And it's a great thought to check whether this braided loop's black-looking thread is any deeper than "Charcoal" -- particularly for those of us who have been wanting a proper (true) black braided option in the line-up :)

EDIT: Apologies due if I misread, as I guess you could've meant that none of the tones in THIS particularly band are recycled. Haha! If that's the case, sorry. You are seemingly correct. ;)

My point was basically it’s a good Gen 1 Leather Loop/Sport Band/Hermes Sport Band/Unity Sport Band black. Not a lighter black halfway between charcoal and deep black.

is canary brighter or more flourescent than OG yellow?
Yes to both. Yellow Sport Band is the only fully saturated yellow but it’s also not very bright and vibrant like Flash/Canary/Lemonade. Canary is pretty saturated out of the sun and therefore pretty coveted.

They haven’t done yellow goo since Ginge’ so we’re due for something amazing in the coming weeks. Otherwise I’m quitting the Watch entirely.

If you want fluoroescent, go flash/lemonade. I’d love a warm version of Flash.
