Nice choice with the scuba blue- haven’t seen that color in a while.
Is that an Apple band? Where did you get it, and how's the quality?
[doublepost=1532580998][/doublepost]I can't decide which combo I like better...
Space Gray & Anthracite/Black Nike Sport Band...
Or Space Gray & Spicy Orange Sport Loop...
What do you in the community think?
It was bought right from Apple and great quality and yes love that one like the color a lot!
I don't recall ever seeing a white/black Nike band like that, let alone an official Apple one...
Perhaps the camera exaggerates the colors and makes the band look white on the outside? To me, the photo you sent a few posts up doesn't look like the band that @Cryates linked to. Who knows, maybe it's my eyes on this early Saturday morning. lol.
True it does look different in picture even when I got it but was happy with it.
Apple’s stock photos almost never match the band color in real life. True for really any band they offer outside of the black ones.
Is this why the Spicy Orange Sport Loop I have shown above is more of a bright neon orange?
Most likely yes. Have to remember that colors will look different under all lighting conditions and on different materials. With Apple renders, they are obviously working with a controlled light source. I do think they could do a better job at conveying their colors more accurately in the renders however. It’s always a good idea to have a look at their products in store if you can.
anyone here have both midnight blue and cobalt blue? I would love the latter to pair with my silver cellular, but theyre discontinued...got the midnight but to me it seems kind of 'boring'... would have loved the cobalt
I have the Dark Teal band, which is available and close in color to cobalt. It's probably my favorite blue band I own.
This is cobalt blue vs nike obsidian
Finally joined the club! Got a 42mm SGS GPS only for my birthday but by looking at posts here decided that I wanted silver aluminum. Ended up selling the brand new space gray on Swappa.
Best part: Saw the Nike.com 20% sale for Nike+ LTE version and figured that I had a couple of days and tried to get it on Thursday. The sale would take the $429 watch down to $343. Went through the whole order process online just to find out that the website never updated and they were sold out. The disappointment was at a all time high. Figured that I would just head to the Apple store and pick up GPS version and be done with it.
Just by a hunch I Googled "Apple watch on sale" just to find out that Best Buy was having a 24 hour sale on every LTE watch. Summary: IMMEDIATELY placed my order for pickup at my Best Buy and was able to get my LTE 42mm silver aluminum with Fog SB for $329. Evidently, so did a lot of other people because the pickup case at BB had about 25 other watches for pickup.
Google and Best Buy for the win!!!!

MacRumors also had this sale noted on the Front Page sidebar.
In my case I had already purchased the model I wanted last week (when Best Buy was offering $75 off) but @nospleen was kind enough to tip me off that calling them would get the situation taken care of, which I did. In the end I got $100 off just like you did.
Congrats on biting the bullet and joining the family of Watch wearers.
