I would describe it as kind of a salmon/orange or a soft orange. I like it very much.
Got a tip for us?

Damn that pops in real life!
I ordered the Hyper Grape and Spruce Fog Nike sport bands. I like the Papaya but I know I won't wear it. After seeing a pic on here I might get the Nike Hyper Grape sport loop as well. Whoo boy, thought I was done buying straps.

I got the Delft Blue today and find it really disappointing. In several lighting conditions, including outdoor, the purple undertones really shine through and it really takes on a violet / indigo look (exact same issue I had with Ocean Blue)....really not a fan, will be returning it.
Blue Horizon is infinitely better as a blue and for those after a deeper and vibrant blue, I’d recommend it over Delft

Interesting how different eyes can work and how subjective colour really is. I see no purple whatsoever in Delft, under any light, indoor or outdoor.
I like Horizon as well, but it is much darker than Delft.
Can I see the Papya on the watch?Papaya Sport band (l.) compared to Apricot (r.), Delft Blue (m.) compared to Royal Blue (l.) and Blue Horizon (r.). Both new bands are absolutely awesome
Yup. Exactly. 14 days, open or not as long as not damaged, returns or exchange allowed no questions asked. It’s amazing.

Yep. I’m pretty sure that level of customer service is built into apple’s premium pricing somewhere, ie paying $49 for a rubber band that costs about 50c to produce.
Hence if you read my post a bit upwards on this page, I felt ‘comfortable’ buying the Delft Blue sports band knowing I have a safety net just in case it turns out to look different / I otherwise don’t like it as much as I thought I would, and voila it wasn’t what I thought it would be, so returned. Full refund. Done.
I had ordered a Summit White Sport Loop and returned it to a store this morning. No fuss, no pain. Was in the Apple Store less than 10 minutes.
Picked up a Blue Delft band yesterday. I like it, it's a bit darker and more purple than Denim, but it will be nice to wear in the spring and summer with light colored clothing.

If I may ask, why did you return it? I was thinking of getting that band.

Today I ordered Delft and both Hyper Grape bands. Delft and the Hyper Grape Sport Band will be here Monday. The Hyper Grape Sport Loop is 3-4 weeks out. That's fine, I can wait. Last one on my list (for now) of this year's Spring bands is the Nike Black. Looking forward to seeing everyone's photos and taking shipment of the ones I have on order.

I had ordered the Hyper Grape Loop online also(3-4 weeks) but was able to pick one up at one of our local Apple stores. I tried cancelling the online order but it was in "Preparing to Ship" stage and the CSR told me he would try and get it reversed and issue me a refund. Point being it will probably come a lot sooner than the estimated ship date. If I do end up getting the other one I will either return or hold on to it for a few months and see if the Ebay prices go crazy. This appears to be a popular one.
Local store had the Hyper Grape Nike Sport Loop in stock so snagged it to go with my 44mm Black Stainless Steel.
It's funny you said this. I got an email this evening saying it has shipped and will be here by the 30th. Delft and Hyper Grape Sport arriving by the 29th. That works for me

I got an email tonight as well telling me mine would be here on the 30th. Under promise, over deliver I guess.
Apple does this often. When I got my S4 it was supposed to take 2-3 weeks, but I got it only a few days later.
