This is my original Series 0 Space Grey Apple Watch:

The actual colour of the watch face is 'Olive' but in the photo, it comes across as white! Watch band is the original 'Black' Nylon band.
Both still going strong!!
Have Apple changed their design then (as you can see by your pics above and my black nylon band, the patterns are completely different)?
Absolutely! The original designs (like yours) aren‘t available anymore, replaced by the checked designs like the ones I posted and a few striped ones.
Lesson: if you really like an original Apple watch band, get it while you can. I learned this the hard way before and had to hunt for several bands on ebay.
The difference between white and soft white is a little clearer in this picture, I guess.
This is perfect- thanks. I actually picked one up on eBay and haven’t had a chance to compare the two yet.
Could you maybe take a comparison picture that includes the antique white? I'm wondering how that one compares.
From left to right: antique wh., soft wh., and white.

It’s a shame that the Midnight Blue colour is more purple than blue - that’s the one thing stopping me from ordering one.

....is the outer solid colour (the colour of the edging) black, or navy?

Picked up the new Midnight Blue Sport Loop yesterday and I’m in love. It’s so comfy and light! Might end up getting a few more of the other colors.

42mm Space Gray with Pink Sand Sport Loop. I picked up the Pink Sand Sport Loop Friday afternoon. I wanted to see more of the Sport Loops in person before I bought any more of them. I really liked how the Pink Sand looked, so I picked it up. Figured I'd post some photos as its a color combo that I hadn't really seen too many photos of.
Apple Woven Nylon - White Check on my 38 mm series 2 gold aluminum watch..
Really like the light 'grey' color in the band, with the gold aluminum it blends to gold. Very nice.

It's just the branding - the red bands and cases sold by apple are called Product Red, as some of the profits go to (RED).
I might be wrong, but I think I remember reading that Steve Jobs wouldn't allow the Apple logo to be used in parenthesis - you'll notice other brands who donate to (RED) do, so Apple instead settled on using (PRODUCT) RED.

Thanks very much. That really explains it. The business about the parentheses is really funny.
Still frustrating that it doesn’t match. The only thing I don’t love about my SBSS is that the perfectly matching band options are limited.
