My Watch series 5, with a SupCase watch case/band on it. This is my first post here at the MacRumors forums!

How is everyone keeping their braided solo loop bands clean? especially the lighter colors?

Think I’m done with solo loops, they stretch very easily, love how comfy they are though.

Time to start growing the collection very slowly lol, waiting on sequoia green now.

Where did you get the band box?

And, here I am keeping mine in a zip lock bag. 😂. I need to do better.

I wish that was mine. 😂

That second photo was taken at the apple store.

I keep my watch bands in my desk draw. 🤣
 
this picture seems a little desaturated - weird
I’ve already renounced it haha, see the drama that ensued. The next time I do a big shot like this I will be armed with my new selective color editing and can hopefully edit all the various oranges with more subtlety. I definitely erred on the side calm for that series, I’d rather sell the bands short than try to make them look more vibrant than they are. Ultimately it’s a tool for comparison and I’ll do better next time?
 
SS silver  Watch, Atlantic blue braided solo loop pics plz.

Got turned off the abyss blue braided solo loop, the color fades very quickly.

Does Atlantic blue have the same problem?

Even after you laundered it? I was under the impression that the color is pretty resilient but most of my experience is with Pink Punch

Saw a few at the  store that people try on, didn’t look that great, color looked very washed out.

Might stick with the lighter colors when it comes to braided solo loops. 🤔

Oh no my friend, that’s just how it looks out of the box. It’s very dusty and the new weave adds silveryness. But yeah same point, not for you, Atlantic is the way to go until we get Capri-level braids.

I’m seeing a sky blue one next fall.

Wouldn’t mind getting the Inverness Green watch band, no dice though. 😔

You reckon size 4 in the Atlantic blue band will be a different fit to my starlight size 4?

Since it was made for the 44mm Watch. 🤔

Stick with size 4?

There’s no size 3 for the bigger watch, so you should stay with size 4 if the less tensile Atlantic/S6 weave is in fact more prone to loosening over time as we’re surmising.

If Apple did fiddle with the lengths by a mm for the S7 it doesn’t matter because as we know the “precision laser cut” gives variance piece to piece much greater than a mm.

Thank you, she’s in the bag ready for checkout, might pull the trigger later on. 🤦‍♂️
