He works construction so wanted to test out the durability. I hope he likes it because he’s stuck with it. lol
Let us know how it goes. My partner does a lot of work with his hands out in his shop and always has his Apple Watch in a bumper case. I’m wondering if i could get him to wear the ultra without one. :) Bumper cases on beautiful apple watches are blasphemous.

Sure will! I’m super excited to snag his Alpine loop! 🤣

Still PtS here, they do really seem to be holding them back for Friday. If anything changes, I’ll be the last to see, mine come from a regional overnight contractor and don’t change status til the evening before.

So with the first deliveries of new bands coming tomorrow (I think...right?), here are some comparison shots I'm hoping to see from @athousandbands (or anyone else feeling generous :) )
  • Rainforest BSL vs Mallard Sport Band
  • Slate Blue BSL vs Abyss Blue BSL
  • Beige BSL vs Starlight BLS (I have a feeling this one is going to make me sad I didn't grab Starlight when I had the chance)
  • Midnight BSL vs Charcoal BSL
  • Elderberry SB vs Dark Cherry SB
  • Slate Blue SB vs Storm Blue Solo vs Ocean/Midnight/any other close blue shade
  • Succulent SB vs Beryl vs Cactus etc.
Thanks in advance :)
 
I don’t know if these are not being staged in USA or what but my first UPS band shipment in awhile, so no morning delivery…a long day of craning my neck by the window greets me Friday.

Our UPS guy usually comes around 330pm, hopefully iPhone day doesn’t delay that 🤞🏽

Elderberry I’m waiting for Amazon, Slate Blue SB for Target to post. And my friend messed up and ordered two Midnight BSL so both got cancelled. Otherwise I gotcha
 
Im guessing Midnight BSL will be darker than Charcoal but more colorful. Was looking at a photo of all the Leather Links yesterday and was reminded how Midnight is darker than Black.

And Nike Platinum/Black vs Summit White/Black and Anthracite/Black vs Black/Black please.
 
Pick one and only one which band do we need to see first out of the box tomorrow? Not literally, I’m sure I’ll just open whatever I open first, unless they forego the individual band boxes like they sometimes do. Only eight bands so I think they can fit them all in one big carton.

Sunglow is the first warm yellow goo since Yellow Sport Band, if we don’t count Marigold goo. Low-key the first warm yellow goo ever, as isn’t Yellow Sport Band really primary yellow?

But Bright Crimson/Gym Red is the first straightforward Red Nike and there’s something about the pairing that’s so electrifying if its anything like last year’s Liverpool home kit of the same colorway:

I got 5 separate tracking numbers for each of my bands. Surprisingly, they shipped with UPS instead of DI OVERNITE. Apple used UPS Next Day Air Saver but my package will just go from Ontario, CA by ground to my local hub. I am looking forward to opening "SUCCULENT" first.

Oooh yea the big mystery band. Still guessing it’s cactus light. Succulent SL or SB?

I miss DIO! I wonder if it’s a demand thing or Apple is just over them
