It makes sense they would ship the watches with the bands first before making the bands available separately. My black/grey Trail Loop still says delivery Nov 8th to Nov 15th. I do have the watch with the blue/grey Trail Loop but I prefer the black/grey.

I'd love to swap out my current AWU with alpine for the trail but the 2 week window closes for me on Friday. Any chance of these popping up in the US by then?

Doesn't appear like it. I'm in the same boat and debating what I want to do. Return and order trail loop and wait a couple of weeks or just keep my watch / alpine and order a trail loop at some point? It's a hassle to return for me - I'm about an hour away from the store.

I was in the same boat. Got one through But Buy, ordered Tuesday and its coming Thursday
 
Just a heads up Best Buy has Watches with black trail loops. I just ordered with delivery by next Tuesday. If you have the Best Buy credit card you can get $80 off too if you use it and promo code SEP23CCSAVE10. Also get $35 back in reward certificates.

Thanks just placed another order for one lol
 
Just got home from my travels and my eBay bargain was waiting for me. Have to say, this is a hugely comfortable band and a much nicer version of the old sport loop!! Can’t wait for my black one to eventually show up from Apple now!

Edit: also very much happy the S/M is shorter than the sport loops of old, so there’s less band looping back over. Brilliant!

Just placed an order for an Ultra with a yellow trail loop through Best Buy, it’s preparing for shipping and arrives Friday. I’m in the US and zero trail loop stock in my local Apple stores.
