Well... Ti is... Ti. 🥰
It's the perfect watch, imo. I only miss the Nike faces on it (well, some Nike faces).
Its starting to seem not far-fetched that the Ti edition is being stuffed with features and significantly raised in price and losing the non-DLC natural gray finish. I’m guessing that will drive the price of used S7 up, if there’s no S8 regular Ti edition. 🙁
Well, I'm happy I got mine, then. 😁
Otoh, I heat it might be another type of Ti - sturdier. And maybe this means there will be another type of Edition, too - ceramic comeback? (or perhaps none at all)
Can you guys help me out? I bought this Hermes band via a local marketplace. But I’m not convinced if they are real or not. If they are fake, they really did a creat job

Finally got my hands on Orange! Love it 😁
Cherry/Forest - one of my favs of all time
Oat Milk/Lemon Zest
Which color face is this? Trying to replicate it but gray seems much lighter when the outside complications turn dark. Thanks! Love your pics!!
I'll never buy an Apple Apple Watch Band. I pay my Apple tax on hardware, no way I'm paying it on cosmetic items. IMO they are a total rip off and you can pick up bands of solid quality that last several years at 60~80 percent cheaper on Amazon and they look and feel fine. In fact I bet you wouldn't even know they are cheap bands. But, YMMV and ETTO.
In saying that, some cool looking bands being shown off in this thread.

thanks!
Its just the gray custom face, Dial IV, gray slider lightened about 25% from the top. It’s crazy how custom you can get with Metro using a non-band-color face.
Before I even edited it just looked a little darker than real life, then I made it a little darker editing the look of the band and trying to make the top band less blown out.
There’s absolutely nothing like a nice Apple-made band and an Apple-made face together in harmony.
I’ve tried quite a few third party sport bands but the silicone material used has never felt quite as good or lasted as long as a genuine sport band. I’ve never paid more than £25 for an OEM one and refuse to pay £49 retail as I agree it’s a rip off.
🧡 Serious retro “Tangerine iMac DV + Mac OS 9’s ‘Tangerine Fusion’ desktop picture” vibes going on here.
Apple definitely uses much better quality materials on their bands. The 5 buck sport bands you see are probably made of silicon, and are dust magnets+they’ll get shiny and worn down quickly in my experience. However I do agree with you on the point that the band pricing is quite absurd.
I actually never wear the silicon bands. Don't like the way they feel on my skin. I only wear the nylon type sports bands. The cheap ones are so close to the Apple bands, that I think some of them may even be made in the same factory.
This is the same argument I frequently hear wheeled out about supermarket own-brand products e.g. biscuits (cookies)…
Just because something’s made in the same factory doesn’t mean that the customer (Apple/premium brand) isn’t specifying for overall higher-quality, or instructing the manufacturer to use a certain grade of material/ingredients in their version.
Bright Green (currently fighting for its life in the quarterfinals against Plum!)
I put my money on UV to be the ultimate winner! I think we all already know lol
Plum sports band/solo loop = better than bright green.
Bright green braided solo = better than… I was going to say plum braided solo, but I guess what I have is dark cherry.
