HAHA nah I snagged one direct from Apple yesterday after using the InventoryWatch app.

I'll be returning the JB order whenever it arrives, either tomorrow or Wednesday.
So you know AirPods Pro 2 are $369 on Amazon, got a price beat with office works so we’re $350, $49 discount, not sure how much lower they will go. There was a $318 deal on Amazon but think it was a mistake as was pulled quick.

I'm still quite happy with my AirPods Pro 1. I did see the $319 price on OzBargain but I wasn't looking...

I think max discount would be around 20% the next couple of months. Maybe there'll be an eBay Plus deal or Amazon Black Friday deal next month.

Yeah I needed them now, lost my AirPods 2 and sold my AirPods Max

I get curious with 42mm bands on the 49mm watch, how much contact does the loop make with the case? I feel like Milanese definitely has to be touching at that point.
You when the end of the band after or loops back? It’ll depend on wrist size. For me these old 42mm are a little too long so it comes quite close. It’s one of the reasons I don’t wear them very often.

Yep, that's the bit I mean. I wear a 42mm on my 44mm and it's already close. I figured 49mm it wouldn't even slide in.

Wait, I’m confused. The bands fit fine on the watch, but as the old loops are longer it just means when they double back the end is close to the watch. But larger wrists won’t have that problem.

I mean right here, the 42mm lug is much shorter, the 44mm lug is taller and allows the band to be further away from the case. Seeing as how 42mm lugs are so short compared to 44mm, let alone 45 and 49mm, I wouldn't expect them to fit. I showed it on the milanese though I'm fairly certain sport loops do this too.

42mm on left/top, 44mm on right/bottom.

Aaaaaaah gotcha!! Oh yes hasn’t even noticed. On the sport loop the lug sits inside the connector a little. Good spot!
