Definitely can’t be a mistake. It looks great! So is this in addition to the Ultra?
Thanks! It is the replacement. I figured I’d get out the ultra game while I still can at a decent price. I’m more likely to hold on to this one longer. It was fun while it lasted.

Some nice character added to my aging Series 5. I think as cutting some structural steel with a disc cutter and the sparks melted the coating on the screen. The long scratch at the bottom was caused when Siri told me I didn’t have a timer app installed so I threw the watch across my lounge floor . Not bad though, this thing was spotless for over three years of wearing.

The black leather loop is a classic; I still find it the most comfortable Apple band. The leather links also match up well though not sure about the Golden brown with the Ultra. The link bracelet does a good job and it’s been a popular combo but looking very closely the colours are a tad off. The Umber leather link looks nice too in my opinion. The classic buckle though is a no go as its profile is thinner than the leather loop and link.

The leather loops look pretty good with the ultra. how do the magnets hold up? do you find yourself adjusting it often or having it slip off?

Be careful with your tattoo though if it reaches under the watch.
I already had to switch arm because of this, and on this arm. It still locks at least 1-2 times a day when the Watch moves over this tattoo. I have to wear my watch really snug to avoid it moving! It sucks because I didn’t have the issue with my S4

Not at all; it’s been solid and very stable. Very light and breathable. I was about to sell it as it was my last leather loop left but happy that I tried it with the AWU as it’s now my favourite combination.

Def sending the new unity band back.
Not as comfy feeling as other sport loops that I have, and the cool design doesn't get much light of the day since it's printed on the inside
 
Yep sure is and looks amazing on the Ultra!

Black/Gray trail loop...can't get enough of this band

Damn’it I’m trying to be reasonable and not but any more bands ! But really have an eye on this one for my Ultra - Just a little more nice compared to the Nike Sport Loops
