Regular Watch Sport isn't available with the black band. Just saying.

Good call , I think I knew that. It just shows how silly apple is. Why wouldn't it be lol

----------

Milanese loop with the early lead,somewhat surprising
 
SS w/ Milanese Loop. Tried it on at the Apple store at least 2 different days and am completely happy with my order. My primary concern was the strength of the magnet and that thing is really strong. I put the band on tight and flexed and the magnet wouldn't even move. :cool::D
 
No leather loop? Proves my initial thoughts. That the leather loop is the most lopsided in price, some cheap leather and a few magnets, 149.00? I have the 6+ leather case it fell apart and was very cheaply made

I am surprised by this. I wanted the blue leather loop just as bad as the milanese and I ordered it separately after taking a few days to decide. I ended up canceling it since I order a black sport band also and two bands should be enough to start with at least for the first few months. I really want the leather loop but I don't understand why they are charging so much for it. I think the SS in the milanese loop with hold up much better over time, but i guess only time will tell.

I'd put money on it. Apple and leather have a horrible history
 
I bought the SS model with a milanese loop, stone leather, white sport band. I'm very tempted to get the links also. It's $449 though so quite expensive.

Actually the leather loop was my first choice, but since it had a 4-6 week delivery date, I purchased a SS watch with a sport band to receive it at launch. I am somewhat concerned that the leather will have the shortest life span, so getting spot band to wear occasionally seemed like a good way to supplement it. You're right about the price, but it seems consistent with Apple's price points.
