Product RED Series 6 40mm with aliexpress black bumper case and Aliexpress Black Milanese band, looks decently good and band is surprinsingly confortable for the price. (Wanted the space grey but found a Product Red one by the same price of the SE 40mm because pricing here is weird, so....)

Looks nice!

I'm really curious if the red color just is extremely unpopular overall. At least for the last few months you can find 40mm Product(RED) watches for $349 regularly, sometimes even as cheap as $329, and I never see the other colors discounted more than $20.

I think there are just such a limited number of outfits that look good with a bright red watch that most people pick other colors. The red looks great, and is a great choice for a phone. But for an accessory you wear and is almost always visible, red is too limiting. Just my 2 cents of course!

In my country specifically I think it has to do with it being too flashy (which it REALLY is, so it's hard to pair with something and make it looks good on you) and even the alluminium ones are seen as luxury itens, also Series 6 (the newest for now) is the only one to have the Product RED variant, so people tends to avoid it like the plague because it's both flashy and shows to everyone that you have the most recent version, and so that makes you a really easy target for theft on the street.

Love my braided loop as well, been using it for the last 6 months as my daily. Also washes well, for when it gets a little smelly.

Yeah I think the flash factor might be the overarching issue worldwide. When even "Mr Red and Black" MKBHD is saying he wouldn't wear the red one it might just be too ostentatious.

(I kind of have the same feeling about the stainless steel versions, myself. If I ever spring for a more expensive model I feel like the more subdued finish on the titanium is more my speed.)

I finally got my Nike Ironstone/black. I love it. I think it may turn into a very sought after strap like the Cargo Khaki. Goes so well with browns.

I do wish this had a Black pin instead of Silver pin. I know some don’t care for that minor detail but a dark band like that would have looked great with it. It’s too bad they seem to have stopped the black pins.
