Just curious to know if those if did not by a watch that came with a sport band are planing on buying one or already ordered one? Do you guys see it as a necessity?

I mean the sport band is the one who is waterproof, sweat proof..

If I bought a no sport band SS, I'm pretty sure I would have ordered an additional sport band

I bought a 42 mm SS Milanese, and after my watch order went through, I ordered the black sport band.

The watch will be delivered today, and the band is still processing with a delivery windows of 4/29-5/12

I ordered all the sport bands except black on launch day when I ordered the MYTHICAL ss, black mod buckle.

Back then I could imagine dressing for work and delightedly matching my watch to my outfit.

*sob*

I have brought the SS with blue leather loop and 2 sport bands (one white and one black) i'm still waiting for them to ship :( considering i pre-ordered on the 10th and still stuck on processing.

I may buy more bands at a later date such as the blue sport band. I hope :apple: release more sport bands in different colours.

Same for me but I got my 42 SS Milanese last Friday and still no Sport Band. I posted elsewhere that I got a CC authorization from the Apple Online Store on Tuesday for the cost of a sport band and tax. Status still shows "Processing".:confused:

Same here. I have a 42mm SS Milanese and will get a red sports band if it ever comes out.

I really hope they release more bands over time, I think it could be a very good money spinner for Apple along with watch faces.

I purposely preordered my SS :apple:Watch with a black sport band as I knew I would want one for everyday use and didn't want to be in the position of having to wait for it and use what ever other band I got with it in the mean time. I've preordered both the blue leather loop and the Milanese loop as additional bands but they are still in limbo with no definite ship date yet.

Ordered a white sport band and a blue sport band. Plan to get a lot more of them if they ever release those beautiful new colors

I will probably get one, just to wear for casual wear when out and about. I bought my watch with the milanese loop but waiting for it to come still :( bought the milanese loop because it's stylish, looks like a proper watch. Sport band would be used when I'm at the gym and stuff

Planning? Yes!

But when will Apple have stock to ship???????

Once I get one (I have three ordered: white, black & blue) I expect I may use them most often since I want to wear the watch at the gym. I'll probably end up only switching to leather for formal occasions.

Same orders, same reasons. Only I also ordered a another green sport band.

I'm super excited for the Milanese band to arrive.

I think anyone who plans to do any exercising should have a sport band or an equivalent 3rd party band.
