it's definitely blue. It's really really hard to tell sometimes since the colors are all so close, but that doesn't look like Azure to me.
I didn’t know Azure was so blue. In the stock thumbnails released by Apple it looks way more grey then photographed outside of the box ... sometimes Apple does a really bad job with how these bands look in real life vs stock photos.
 
I'm on a roll this week! I just found a Nike Blue Orbit sport band 42mm, Dark Olive 42mm sport loop, and Marine Green 42mm sport loop. All brand new w/ their respective boxes. Only Hot Pink left for my sport loop collection to be finished.
 
The brightest non pastel blues are the Cobalt blue and Blue Horizon. The Ocean blue is pretty close to midnight in real life. Ocean is still nice, just don't overpay for one.

Strongly disagree. Midnight is super dark, almost black. Ocean ia a) gorgeous and b) much lighter. It‘s also lighter than Cobalt and Horizon.
 
Apple has been updating their iPads and iMacs and here I am, just waiting for the watch bands spring refresh. I really want the sport band in Papaya!

Spring starts tomorrow, right? Or does Apple not release on the first day of the season?

Generally they release them on an event day, but with the way the week has been going maybe they’ll do tomorrow instead. Keeping my fingers crossed for some truly new colors and not rehashes of what we keep getting haha

Some interesting bands today! The Papaya Sport Loop looks eye-searingly orange, so will like to see what it's like in person. All the new Nike Loops are pretty nice, especially Hyper Grape. The Summit White is now available separately, so I assume resale value will tank.

The Sunset leather bands look lovely as well, just too expensive for me.
 
Hard to decide between the black and hyper grape nike sport loop... Was looking forward to get the black nike once it was released but hyper grape is throwing a wrench in things...
 
Hmmm.. now debating paying $8 to have it on Friday... ordering at least 3 and may return if I don't love.
[doublepost=1553090999][/doublepost]Grape loop, Grape band, and Papaya loop to be here Friday.

Love em or they go back. No need to stick around if I won't wear them.
 
All of the new serial numbers.
