I'm not sure about the Ultra, every time I see that action button I feel like it throws off the band. I'd only be brave enough to pair oranges and neutrals with it if I were to get one.

Would be hilarious to see a modern buckle on an Ultra.

Yep there's a few Nike bands I regret not buying years ago. People think they are reselling DaVinci paintings with the prices they want for bands. $149 for an Ultra Violet band for an example...lol take a hike
😂 yeah the market for UV took a bit of a dive when when a reseller here in the U.K. dumped a load for £18 each! Still a few chancers out there though 🙈

Do you have a list of other examples that shot up in price? would love to be on the lookout for deals on such ones

I sold mine for £30, I didn't know it was so sort after, I did wonder why it sold about 2 minutes of me putting it on eBay.

For Reference, here's the Space Black Link + AW Ultra:

Just as a matter of reference, while the Space Black Link is DLC coated, I wore that damn band EVERY SINGLE DAY since I took delivery of my Apple Watch Series 0. May of 2015 and it's held up VERY well. 2 of the original 4 included links broke but I had spares in the original Apple Watch Box:

So 7.5 years with one band is pretty damn good.

Okay, I misread your first post and was going insane because that absolutely did *not* look like a SBSS link.

I've had Space Black + Link Bracelet watches for years and I just wasn't happy with how the SB Link looked on the Ultra so I made things right:

There's a thread somewhere, don't know if it's in the accessories page or not, but someone's saying that Apple should make a titanium link bracelet. I mean, they could, I guess, but the stainless is free to produce (at least in comparison to R&D of a titanium one) and matches pretty much just as well.

I wear my link with my titanium Edition, it's a perfect match.
