only one I don’t have…waiting for a deal!

fingers crossed!

At the moment, i only wear two bands: the camellia with the golden S6 and the mallard green on the golden S5 .. every other band looks somewhat 'misplaced' with the golden watches to me 😌

Odd thing is, that the material (or better its haptic) for both bands is a little different. The camellia feels a little more 'velvet', whilst the mallard green grips a little more sticky. The occasional Dawn treatment does not make any difference about this. It's hard to describe and very little nuances, but noticeable. Apple might have changed the bands recipe, i guess.. a little more of this and a little less of that and the outcome feels different.

Yes camellia is a dry one. So Mallard feels more like greasy dark teal than smooth pacific green. We need to do a spreadsheet of the band feel. Of course switch to solo loops and they all feel like icing!
