Style of the day. I like the “nautical” vibes this band gives to my watch.
Are you not familiar with NATO straps on wristwatches? The sport loop looks like a homage to those.
I thought so, too, at first. They do look casual... but found them to be very, very comfortable. And the infinitely adjustable size is great for small adjustments throughout the day. The benefits of the Milanese loop with the comfort of the old, discontinued woven nylon bands (which I also love and have 8 of them).
The woven nylon bands looked more like NATO straps than sport loops imo.
I kinda regretted buying it, cause i’m not the biggest fan of sport loops, but I finally opened the band box yesterday and i’m not hating it at all.
me too.... I’m torn between Ti vs SS.... I’ve had SS for my last watch and love it, so thought I’d try something new with Ti this series but it seems like it’s not as versatile in terms of matching with different straps...
The regular Ti would bother me, i think, with all the silver lugs. I don't think it blends very well. The black Ti or steel is fine with black lugs either way. That's just me, though. I'm anal about that ie. i won't have silver lugs attached to my black watches.
I'm mostly torn because between silver stainless and black in general, and then black Ti vs SS mainly because i don't think the link bracelet matches the SB Ti very well from what i've seen.
what’s that heart rate complication? stock?!Still fully satisfied with my steel S4. Here with the ultraviolet sports band

I ordered the med brown leather loop yesterday with a mid November expected ship date. It shipped today so I guess the leather loop supply isn’t so bad after all.
Has anyone got pictures of a Stainless Steel Gold with the brown leather loop. I really want one, but am on the fence
EDIT: my nearest Apple store is 35 miles away and last week when I was in there they didn't have any

Looking good - mine arrives tomorrow- hoping it looks as good on the SBSS as it does on yours!
I like the brush look of the Ti. The Ceramic is cool for its material but the white makes it look cheap. It just seems to look like plastic to me.
Frankly with the lighting on your photos I can't tell whether its a SBSS or SBTi. The 44mm looks ok on your wrist tho.
is the picture on the left the 44? i think 44 looks good on you too..
i also have small wrists (i think less than 150mm) , am on the 2nd hole for S/M sport bands when i wear, which also "disqualifies" me from hermes bands. But i do like how the bigger watch looks compared to the 40mm so i decided to stay big haha..
go to the ceramic thread and see our pics! should give u an idea of how the white matches to the apple bands
In the flesh it doesn’t look like plastic and certainly doesn’t feel like it. It’s a very modern sporty look. One which I’m still to decide on by the end of the week when the 14 day return is up. The Ti is defnelty a lovely finish but with the cons that the surface will get marks.
