This is where old and third-party band pics go to keep the Every thread pristine for the new-new IMO.
You gotta get out more!

I keep thinking about nabbing one of these 🤔
My S5 Aluminum Black with Pine Green Sport Band
Yellow cream, with original yellow on the way! Now to get Flash.
It’s almost reflective...it came after I lost direct sunlight on my quarantine compound premises...I will edit it tomorrow with the glitter-y look! It was nice to get the ghost auction $21 but I would say it’s worth the $23 Mercari listing and then some.
By the way I like your new avatar 🐕...it’s like they’re looking at each other.
Idk where in CA you’re from but I swear our town never quarantined. Especially the old lady that lives up my street. Always out! Her social life must be fire. We only went out for bare necessities the first couple weeks, me not at all because my health is compromised, but for concern for my immune system I started going back out.. carefully. I’ve since graduated to normalcy. You don’t work that immune system ya die! But is it really that bright? They call it red but isn’t it more pink, light red? Reddish on outside pink in middle? Do I need sunglasses? I love brights.
and thanks! One of my puppers!

It’s mostly the silver shimmer in the “soft pink” left chunk...it has to be seen. The yellow is also golden like no yellow sport band is, and the middle “red” pops way above any pink or dragon sport band. A little less intense than the hot pink sport loop I just found..but it also carries the soft pink pattern over...tomorrow! Here’s some reference bands...bright crimson and hibiscus
You sound like you’re in love 😂

Ugh I can’t get the picture to fully load if I click on it, but those la croixs look so refreshing 🤤 my hibiscus look way more red, I swear.

Sorry I edited a million times, if it doesn’t work still I can PM it...yeah I’m a latent stripeosexual...I only bought orange when they were still in stores and even that wasn’t an immediate want, just happened to see a photo of one on a watch that had that dreaded “lotion makes the HR sensor come off” bug of the earlier watches. Recently got a cheap Tahoe tripe and it’s also a dream.
And yeah very on-brand Cali post...the raz-cran was out randomly for dinner and I had to go grab a warm Hi-biscus for the lulz.
That happens on my iPad all the time. If you hit the photo name as a hyperlink it opens in a new tab, and that works 100% of the time.

I had Tahoe from new and my wife had Berry also. They might be worth a revisit. I’m sensing a swell of love for the woven nylon among the band afflicted.
Guess I should join in on the fun, eh?
Went with Royal Blue today. 42mm S1 in SGA.

Finally get to see your watch. I feel like we’ve communicated so much on the other thread but I never got to see you actually post a photo of your beloved S1 if I’m not wrong. The Royal Blue and Space Gray is a great combo btw!
He’s not just a peep! He’s got an arm! And part of the backwards gang I see. Ive gone back and forth. Too lazy to switch my orientation now though.

Works now!
I often find most bands go really great with the SGA. The black ones blend in, and the brighter ones contrast well.
Yeah, I’m left handed, so I wear it on my right wrist. Found the crown is easier to access on the left side, so I flipped it!
Oh, and, don’t freak out... I actually have 2 arms!
There are already wavy-lined knockoffs on eBay. Fakes of the Nike too.The lines are straight?!
I will always buy genuine Apple bands but the fake ones are pretty good!
OEM all the way for me as well. There are some pretty good third party options, though.
Do you guys know if the quality of the fake ones are close to the OEM? Just curious
I’ve only had fakes that fall apart. It’s been a while though, so maybe they’ve improved?Do you guys know if the quality of the fake ones are close to the OEM? Just curious

The “fake” bands I bought from some company in China feel identical to the OEM bands. I’ve purchased 5 or 6 from Ellsworth I think the name is. Takes over a month to get them but the quality on the sport loop bands is fantastic.
