Literally the best yellow band Apple has ever made; I was so annoyed that they didn't make the colour available for the Sport Band. I use Sunglow a lot in watch OS though.
And let the warm yellows continue all throughout series 9! Mango, Daisy, Sunflower, maybe even a fine dandelion wine

A but random, but I’ve been watching Break Point on Netflix and love this colour watch strap Felix wears!! I think the t-shirt matches it.

Anyone got any thoughts what colour sport band would be closest to this colour? I’m think Blue Gen 2? Or maybe Blue Gen 1?

I thought from looking on Bandbreite turquoise but searching this thread for pics of it I think it’s too dull.

Yeah Blue Gen 2 is the neon chlorine buddy you’re looking for

This band has all the glowy phosphorescence apple deigns to lend to a sport band every once in awhile.

They also haven’t made many eye-popping green-blues or blue-greens that evoke aqua or a Caribbean water type blue/green.

Bloo2 was definitely the immediate thought. Why doesn't Apple do these anymore?
 
Maya Blue, just for you
They need to wow us with a water vibe after the distinctly atmospheric Blue Fog, Storm Blue, and Sky. And I guess Northern Blue too. The sky is north right?

Of course Tomales, Abyss, Deep Navy all evoke the liquid life and are not what we’re talking about here. I don’t even care if they use their new boring band name style and call it Bright Blue
 
Thanks for all the replies. Is blue gen 2 notoriously hard to get?! Struggling to find it this morning anywhere.
 
That looks stupendously gorgeous. Snoopy face is the first time I was (am) tempted to load a Watch beta.
I can’t speak to battery life because I switch watches constantly and won’t put the beta on my cellular/workout watch, but the snoopy faces are legit.

The most crisp and satisfying animation you could imagine and tons of different cut scenes

Even Palette is growing on me, though when you choose just one legacy color and not the special multicolor options, it does have large swaths of very desaturated darkness that are off-putting at first…

It’s old enough now that not many people or even normal wholesalers put them up for sale randomly.

I can recommend this ebay seller who we’ve all shopped with a ton, shipping is slow but free


Also though, trying to find this particular band which is just named “blue” presents a search term issue haha
