I finally got an Apple Watch yesterday (42mm, yay!) and one thing I did was take note of particular bands that I liked when they were announced. I've been searching for the Scuba Blue woven nylon band but haven't been very successful finding it. Where would one go for the bands Apple released but discontinued?
Got a tip for us?

If you can't find the authentic version of the discontinued Apple Watch band you were looking for on eBay, there likely will be a third-party option available on Amazon/ebay similar to Apples, but not the quality of Apples.
I'm in the same boat... I really love the Pride Band, but where can I buy it? On Ebay is very expensive... Any other places, maybe some left in stock somewhere?
The lesson most of us have learned the hard way, is that if you like a band, but it straight away. Don't assume it will be available in perpetuity, few have been.
I've googled the band name/color/SKU from apple. Recently got the "green" sport band (bright lime green) from Walmart online after finding it this way. Many retailers still have older stock.
I just ordered the same green band from Walmart a few mins ago. They had one left in stock after my purchase.
