It’s obsidian/black. Really hard to find. Just lucked into it in this size. First/last time wearing it on this watch.

My first purchase of the 38mm version was my only usps fail/delay of the entire pandemic (hundreds of bands), but Depop refunded me and I found it elsewhere.

Keep an eye on the discounts thread. Anything this rare I will post there. It does not wear well. A big time “shiner.” I’m going to put it away right now and not wear it again for awhile haha.

So I got really lucky and was able to find a brand new 42mm Obsidian/Black Nike band on eBay. I ended up getting it for basically list price ($50), and it arrived today. I’m absolutely loving it.

2 interesting things (which you may know the answer to)…it came in a plain white Apple Watch band box. No picture of the band on the outside. But it’s the legit Apple box. That leads me to my 2nd observation. The label says “DEMO”. Any idea what that means?

It still had the plastic wrap on the clasp part of the band and it looks like it hadn’t ever been removed from the packaging.

Some pics:

Kind of a heavy Halloween look. I say go for the link first. I totally disliked the black link when I saw it on SBSS in the AppleI****** vid review but it’s perfect on SBTi. I haven’t seen the pair irl, as I got the link after moving on from SBSS.
Thanks so much!

Demo from what I understand is that band was intended for display in Apple Store and not for retail sale.
Im also tracking a demo sports band in midnight with golden pin.
Would love to see actual pics.

I’d never seen a Midnight1GoldPin in 38mm until this Mercari listing but it’s so grimy and I already have a “fake” Midnight2RGPin from Charger and a Midnight1SilverPin as my first ever band purchase…

Seller sent me these after I requested pics of underside.

I have this weird feeling they’re going to keep charcoal in the lineup for awhile like the black and saddle leather loops and people who want a darker braid are just going to have to deal 💁🏻‍♂️💁🏻‍♂️💁🏻‍♂️

Because charcoal is as dark as they wanna go for graphite/SBTi.
