So there are a couple Apple bands I really like, like the black striped woven nylon, but I don't know how I feel about wearing a black buckle and adapters with my SS watch. Opinions? Anyone else mix and match hardware colors?

Yes. When I purchase configurable bands, I typically get it with stainless connectors, regardless of the band colors... and then match the buckle to the band colors... for example, I got a black and olive green striped band with thin red stripes... the black buckle looks great... and I have the stainless adapters to connect to the watch.

Apologies for the poor quality photo... did it in a rush...

Nice pic that looks great

I am seriously considering the Apple Black Striped Woven Nylon, which has black adapters and buckle. How do you guys think it would look on a SS watch?

I often wear a black Milanese band with my SS watch, even though I also own a SS Milanese band. The black looks really good to me. More importantly, it works well with the watch because the black ties in with the black screen.
