Just curious here if anyone knows - I got the 42mm 2nd gen product red for my 44m AW - but noticed that the one they sell now also has a different product number - is the colour the same? It's crazy how many straps they've come out with and is getting very confusing as there isn't a straightforward list! And everything changes seasonally! Also I'm seeing listings for 'red' apple watch straps on eBay - not product red. Do product red straps have the product(red) logo on them? mine doesnt.

There's this photo from eBay - the red I have - although being 2nd gen product red (same product code as mentined above ) it looks much similar to the 'Red' listed here - redder than pink and orange in colour - and in that it omits the product red logo.

You‘re right, the labels are wrong. I have the 2nd gen as well and it is indeed the 2nd from left in this picture.

So the '2nd gen' listed here is just the re release (new product code) of the actual 2nd gen product red for the new 40 & 44mm sizes? No colour change I'm guessing?

It is a 3rd gen, actually. If you look a little closer you‘ll recognize that the 3rd gen is just a little bit lighter than the 2nd gen.

So, this picture shows: 1st - 2nd - 3rd - Rose Red
