Was watching someone’s YouTube video of the Ultramarine silicone case and wow I think I have a bit of FOMO, that Ultramarine looks so good. I think it’ll be like Ultraviolet levels of wow all over again.
I’ve been surprised no one has mentioned the Ultraviolet vibes coming from Ultramarine yet. Maybe they aren’t as close as I want them to be. Unfortunately the sport loop doesn’t seem to have the saturation level the solo loop does. May need to grab both to be safe = ).

Hey folks, I have the dark cherry band from my Series 7 and now ordered the Series 10 again in gold. The new plum color looks really similar to the darf cherry one, why I picked the clay color for the band (I don't have grey one yet). Does someone have the dark cherry band and maybe the new plum case already to compare the colors?

I used the band color from post #29,056

The case is from a video from Zollotech.

Dark Cherry is the second one from the left.

Honestly I'm more curious to see how Plum gen 1 compares to Plum gen 2. Rest assured @chipsandsalsa will be getting a new pic out soon as he gets the new bands. Been pretty good about quickly posting those on request.

To my eye, in the renders, the new Plum looks way more purple than either old Plum or Dark Cherry. Hopefully it‘ll be like this IRL as well.

Deep Navy, an Apple Watch Sport band color that came with the blue Apple Watch Series 6. Some gold stainless steel models came with it as well.

Well this.. Is an expected turn of events. I had a Light Pink sport band in my chart no, from a trusted online reseller, showing as preview image the stock picture of the recent light pink band (I think it was from last year? Nothing fancy). I waited until Apple confirmed the compatibility of older bands with new watch cases and then immediately purchased the band. It was a very good price and I simply needed a pink band, didn't care much for the exact shade.
Well this is what came in. It is indeed a "light pink" sport band, it is absolutely original, box, all 3 pieces, all labels in the right spots, but I think it's a much older model (it is labeled as 38 mm). And I must say, it is much nicer than the one I was expecting!!
Have I stumbled upon a rare band? I had never heard of it before.
It certainly is pretty.

Beautiful! It should be the Light Pink Sport Band from Spring/2016 (MM902).

It was bound to happen now that Apple is reusing names willy nilly for fairly drastically different shades (see Ocean Blue and Plum just to name a few).

Luckily LiPi1 is all-timer. Perfect cotton candy band!

😱 You‘re so lucky 😍 Looking for the big one at a reasonable price for years. Keep it and love it.

I am about to go down a phone case rabbit hole since I’m getting close to the end of the bands I want.

Very close to finishing my international collection of woven nylons and once I do I hope to finally take pics of those. For now, I've got the Canada Sport Loop to share.

Lit combos! Both match the nice cases of these Apple Watches ⌚️

That case is 🤌🤌🤌
Indeed, storm blue colored iPhone 14 silicone case. I was an iPhone 14 user for a day trying on the AirPods Pro 2. Once the Apple Store updates everything to iOS 18, I would want to demo the hearing aids.

There is a matching sport band for Apple Watch. ⌚️

Why is my Ultra Titanium Milanese taking so long! I've got a delivery date of 15th October, I keep checking to see if it's moved forwards (as sometimes happens with Apple) but no!
