Have we as a thread ever discussed the Bearbrick "Barry McGee" watch band? As far as I can collect, in 2018, Bearbrick released a set of 100% and 400% bear things along with a matching Apple Watch band. Now the normal for things like this is a third party trash band, however this set released with an OEM 44mm White Sport Band that had been printed over with these designs.

Me personally, I think there's a chance that this band was produced *and printed* entirely in-house by Apple. The print wraps around the lugs and pin very flush, which wouldn't be very easy to do. There also exist these very Apple-esque high quality renders of the product, which would take a fair bit of effort for a third party to design in an image manipulation program. (Though, fairly, it's certainly doable.)

Not sure what to make of it. I'm hoping @choreographics can take a deep dive into it.

Was looking at an Mac Mini, Mac Studio filter base made by IFCASE. The also have a whole line of sports related Apple Watch bands. A sweatband wrist/ankle band, elastic bands for wrist, ankle, and upper arm. Given their price the are not something to collect but for sweaty exercises they should work out OK. For me it is Apple watchbands or nothing.

Which (OEM) bands was everyone wearing for the eclipse today? Anyone here in the path of totality?

I went with a very eclipse-fitting prototype i recently got, but i wont post a pic as that was an unreleased band and this thread is for every apple watch band Apple released, ever.

Wouldn't want my post to be deleted for being off topic!
