My wife wants a pink watch, but she doesn't think the pink on the pics from Apple's site look very pink. I tried finding some non-Apple pics of the pink band and I couldn't find any close ups. Only a couple from some review sites showing all the bands from afar. Thanks.

I've also heard that the pink leather strap is more white than pink. If you have the cash to indulge her, here is a REALLY pink one going on sale soon ($115,000)

BTW, I'm talking about the pink rubber sport strap. Not the leather one.
 
Here's one.

Just google "apple watch sport." This image was on the first page. It's more like the pink 5c.

I hate both "pink" options. The leather one looks like white that has started to discolor, and the sport one looks more like coral to me.

That is why I like the pink sport band. I don't like hot pink but I do like the coral color. As far as the leather one, I agree with you.
 
wait for a couple of months, third party will have every possible bands out there for fraction of the price.
 
I think the pink leather will look great on pale skin that tends more pink than yellow. It'll probably look great on dark brown skin, too, but not on olive or tan skin. But I'd also like to see some photos of it in the wild, if anyone can find some good ones.
 
I like pink, but dislike coral. And it looks coral to me :(

I think I'm probably going to get the white sport band, unless the pink is actually more of a pastel pink.
 
It looks more like a light red than normal pink. Pink is usually a mixture of red and purple and white (like my avatar), but the watch band is just red and white. I really like the color, but can see how people are disappointed that they don't get a real pink.
 
The more real world pictures I see, of the pink sport band, the more I dislike it. I'm definitely getting the white sport band now. It's an odd pink.
