So I absolutely love my new Ultra - I ordered with both the Ocean Strap (Yellow) and an Alpine Loop strap (Orange) - I really, really ike the Yellow - but I love Orange straps.

I think for next year Apple should introduce a nice Bright Orange Ocean strap (like "Vitamin C" or even brighter) - maybe call it "International Orange" - so it matches the detailing on the watch!

What colours would you like to see?

Orange should have been in the first wave instead of white I think. My understanding is (I'm not a diver) that orange is the last color to disappear in dark/deep water, and is thus one of the easiest colors to see.

Beyond that I personally would like to see a true black and a bright blue.
 
I would like International Orange and Alpine Green. Yellow, which I have in addition to Midnight, is quite bright. It does look nice with the blue / yellow face of the newest watch face for the Ultra.

Also, as mentioned by another, I was slightly skeptical of the Ocean band, but it was the one in-stock on Best Buy’s website with no delay. I have been pleasantly surprised at how good it look, and the comfort.

They should do tie die versions. Black/white black/red black/blue and various other combos that are fun 🤩 I agree, the ocean band is hands down the most comfortable watch band I have every worn. Something to do with the material and the design. I forget I am even wearing a watch. I am putting my SS link on tomorrow, I don’t know how long I will be able to wear it knowing how comfortable the OB is.
 
Definitely orange as I love orange bands. I actually ordered one off of amazon, so will see how that goes once I go to my mailbox.

I would love a chocolate brown, charcoal grey perhaps too. I'm surprised that did not do a ProductRed band

Disappointed they didn't release an orange Ocean band. I have the white and midnight Ocean band, but my daily is the orange Alpine band which matches the accent of the watch and watch face.
