Every Apple Watch band Apple released. Ever.

[RustyFox]

This is probably a long shot / asking too much, but to anyone that has lots / all Nike Sport Bands, would someone possibly post a photo comparing all / any of the following:

Celestial Teal/Black
Hasta/Light Silver
Obsidian/Black
Midnight Navy/Mystic Navy
Black/Cool Gray
Anthracite/Black

Thanks.

Is Celestial Teal / Black notoriously hard to come by? I can't seem to find it anywhere for 45mm.

Used to be suuuuper rare, especially 44/45…now it’s less so but still not easy.

Neon Pink Sport Loop. Just the band Starlight S9 was waiting for (imho).

@choreographics My Bandbreite Logbook Calendar has two 5's for November! Of course this is a tiny problem in the grand scheme of things, but it throws off the calendar grid for the rest of the month. I hope it won't throw off December.

That's a known bug due to end of DST in the US. As far as I know the team is already on it.

Big fan of my current setup. Matte glass, black Spigen case and a Nike desert stone sport band. The case is there because I'd really like to have a black ultra, not per se because of the extra protection . Looks strangely huge in this picture but isn't irl.

Then put your little hand in mine, there ain't no hill or mountain we can't climb...

“New” band alert 🚨

It appears Apple did indeed neglect to label the fw23 red sport band with a “new” label:

Red2023 with new face — Red6 (2022) with its seasonal face

I don’t think the new red will excite anyone looking for a return to the glory of First Gen Red, it does have a pink vibe, not dissimilar to Red5

Pray, tell — what do you mean by the “glory” of First Gen Red? Not sure I’ve ever heard people really rave about it.

My first Red is the Solo Loop. I don’t love the tomato shade, or how much it leans toward the orange side of the blue/yellow undertones. Just by checking out comparison photos on here, I know I should look out for First, Second, and Fifth Get Reds. But apparently maybe the new one, too?

(This… this is how the next level of collecting starts, isn’t it? I’m perfectly happy with only one Red band… as long as it’s the right shade. But I was just wondering about the different shades of red (and maaaaybe wanting to see it for myself), and now I’m going to be checking model numbers for bands, and I’m off to the races… “Well, now I KNOW that this one is more crimson and this one is more scarlet.”)

Sport bands:

Red gen 1 just sticks out as a pure, more orange red that most people consider the only red worth having.

5-6-7 are both too pink and too similar for people. 4 (watermelon) is pretty low in saturation, though it is the only silicone solo loop and that makes it fairly special and it has some considerations towards orange.

3 is a nice red velvet (per the internal retail shorthand code name) or was it red dragon? 2 is kinda in that pink zone as well.

I only have the first gen Red Sport Band as I think having every slight change is unnecessary. Same with the Braided Solo Loop. However, I have each of the Red Sport Loops since they have different designs.
