Haven’t posted on here in forever but while I was gone I fell in love with the Ultra 2

I wanted a fancy band for when I needed to be fancy but the Twill Jump was too stiff so returned it for this. If there’s a knockoff Bridon with a wider band out there, I’d love to know as even the wider 45mm version looks too thin an Ultra.

Love the deployment buckle, I can look past the mismatching lugs.

Today Apple sent me the Light Grey sport band that exclusively comes with the natural titanium watch edition. I sold my AW S5 Ti with this band and I regret for selling it. I went to Apple store and asked if they can sell me one, but this band is not separately retailing. So I had go to Apple Support, provided them with some information of my old S5 Ti and its serial number. They set up a payment, I paid and the band comes in sealed today. I love this shade of grey a lot and it matches perfectly with snoopy paperwhite face.

well, 30 minutes with a support rep returned a goose egg.

Repeatedly told her it was a band unique to the Apple Watch Edition S7 Titanium just like the Hermes extra band, and it was never sold on its own.

She kept asking me how I would describe the color "Concrete" , "Lavender/Grey", etc; like all these old purchasable band colors to which I told her "No." Finally got her to take my serial number and after waiting on hold she said "I think I figured it out, is it "Succulent"?" 🤦‍♂️ She still could not figure it out.

On your replacement band, was there any serial number or name or any identifying info of the band itself? I watched unboxing of S7 titanium watches that show the band with ZERO writing on the package of the band.

do I just try another rep later? every other post I saw on this topic was "easy peasy, 10 minutes" My call was not easy...
