Evil Spotify. Hey at least your club has a sponsor. Mine can't even find a sponsor thanks to its new Yankee cowboy ownership group.... sigh.

Haha these Apple bands have turned me into quite the disloyal fan, I have a Tottenham on-field pullover I ordered from England just because it’s Volt, whilst I’m technically a Man U fan. I also have a Brighton kit in Bright Crimson, though I do genuinely love them after this season.

But I guess I don’t mind Barça as my La Liga side, I had a nice knock-off of theirs as a teen. And they’re an underdog now with the financial straits?

Really enjoyed the Real Madrid doc on TV+ but their jerseys are never terribly exciting compared to the blaugrana and Barça alternate kits.

Reshot Game Royal/Midnight Navy to include the France crest:

Anyway I tell myself European soccer is my bliss watch where I don’t get too emotionally invested and try to stay neutral!

I assume you’re a Chelsea fan? Not gonna lie their new set of kits is possibly the worst I’ve ever seen. Although I’ll get that Mint Foam number if Apple made it a band. I already have socks in that color 🤣

Yep, Chelsea is my team. Although I have to admit they haven't made it easy to support them the past 18-24 months. Current kit looks pretty plain. Maybe it will be better if we ever get a sponsor on there.

You've done a nice job pairing your straps to your kit!

Stay tuned for Anthracite on a forthcoming PSG top with Air Jordan pattern, as well!

💸💸💸they even left a nice channel for me to lay the watch in:

Wanted to show the comparison between my China Sport Loop and the pre-production version here as it's quite interesting. The text on the bands of course isn't spaced out, but this we knew from the prereleased Japan and Denmark sport loops that leaked like half a year before the bands came out. In those photos though, Denmark and Japan had extremely similar if not the exact same designs as the officially released ones.

With this China prerelease, though, the colors are slightly different. If I'm honest, I think I prefer the prerelease.

The red, at least in person, looks identical between the two. Maybe a touch lighter on the prerelease. But the yellow is by far lighter and less orange on the prerelease. I think I like it more. not only that, but the yellow on this one extends to the lugs too, as opposed to the red ones of the released version.

I honestly think I enjoy the prerelease version overall. But maybe the fact that it's an unreleased colorway is playing a hand. Dunno.

The differences between the prerelease and released ESP and FRA sport loops are super drastic, while JPN and DEN barely saw any change. It seems CHN is somewhere in the middle, with just a slight color tweak. Still cool!

The ginger-y prerelease just seems so out of line with the gold vibe that apple is always pushing for the customers in China

If this is the final selection of new case / watch bands (especially someone keen to upgrade to 15 Pro), I would be pretty happy with these.

Only thing that raises my eyebrow when Majin says “case clones” rather than these are the actual 15 Pro cases. Anyways I guess we will see in less than a month if it’s real, looks like Taupe (last seen as a Classic Buckle) might be making a comeback.

yeah there's a big range of color here and i dont think i can trust them fully, though that "pink" case (#6 in image 1) looks a lot like how I expect the "pink" watch to look, so who knows

Pick your favorite color and it won’t become a band lol. But yeah I like that yuca green, that mango yellow, red has pop again.

Not even getting my hopes up around these very electric leather colors. I’ll whip some concepts later.

And number 2 “coffee”…also not getting my hopes up. That one might just be a match for Titanium phones and no band version.
 
New band type, then? „The new Apple Watch band will reportedly be made out of a woven fabric material and feature a magnetic buckle.“ Can‘t really picture that myself, but we‘ll see soon enough.

I feel like it’ll be like these but the big snood-like buckle will cover the ugly bump and then the whole thing will be so streamlined and magnetized that the two layers that overlap won’t be so bulky looking. Basically Apple will hide everything with magnets and thinness.

And it feels like it’ll be the Trail Loop fabric?
