I live 3 minutes from the store so it’s easier to grab a bunch, take them home, give a real tryout, and return what I don’t end up keeping.

I appreciate your concern Mike 😂
So you live three minutes from the store, you went to the store to pick them up, had plenty of time to try on a band waiting for them to bring up your order and check you out, had to out yourself $50 to buy a band you didn't want, and gave yourself the inconvenience of having to drive back and return the sport loop? How is that easier?
 
Thank you.

Yep, Atlantic Blue, glad I purchased it, don’t think it’ll be around for much longer, since it’s last year stock.

I hope you got one size down. My Atlantic blue stretched a lot. I have a theory that the initial ones stretched worse than the newer ones.

What's wrong with you?
 
A month? Wow. I actually got the band last month when it launched. Ordered the watch with Milanese last Friday and it arrived on Monday. Are you in the US?

Yea I’m in the US. I ordered it in early March and it’s due to deliver March 28th - April 4th. Still hasn’t shipped. I was actually pretty baffled at how backed up they got on this particular band.

Dude. Just drop it. Why are you still goin on and on about this? Let the man live

I live 5 mins away from a store as well, until you wear one for a day or days it isn’t worth the cash and I return it if I don’t like it. We all got your point 5 posts ago

I'm not surprised, some of the Braided like some sizes of Flamingo are currently on backorder.

I really like the new one, its often a little more pink/purple than it looks here. Caught it in a moment of really nice warm beams plus the wood fence I use to shade the display. And so gooey soft.
Is the newest one still Gen 5? Or was there any change with the spring bands?
