I see. It will be added to the database shortly as Gen 2. The "new" one is a little bit warmer in tone?




I am sorry for your experience. It's tricky and involves the sync between iPhone and iCloud, but as of now, I could not narrow it down to completely solve it. Sometimes, it just needs time, a retry might help.
Still have this issue after I restart the app ⚔️ on Apple Watch. App is syncing via iCloud. Should I restart my Apple Watch ⌚️?

Just realized Unity Bloom sport band was announced by now last year. January 17, 2024

Perhaps marketing thought the traditional MLK homepage takeover was already putting Tim at risk?

Bandbreite's entry says Spring 2024, so this confirms from Apple's article that it was released in January, Winter 2024. @choreographics , can you please update the entry on the encyclopedia? Thank you.
Well winter doesn’t exist as a season into the new year. It used to denote bands that came out separate from the September drop before Apple went to just fall/spring.

I think Bandbreite has it right

Tanks for clarifying how Apple does Winter band releases. I was about to think it was Spring if it had a February release.
 
The Bloom came out quite early. Usually Black Unity drops closer to the middle of Black history month. Just depends on the overall ramp calendar and them liking clumping stories together.
February is always black history month, so Apple releases these bands around that time.
 
Black Unity release dates:

January, 17 2024 — Unity in bloom
January, 18 2023 — Creativity and community. Woven together.
January, 26 2022 — Future. Forward.
January, 26 2021 — A celebration of truth, power, and solidarity.

Although it may not technically be Spring, it is mentally associated with the beginning of the year and the upcoming Spring Collection in March. That's why I have chosen to refer to Spring for all entries.

It’s interesting that the release dates are around the same time. Apple usually announces these bands with an official press release and collaborates with Black artists to design them.

I wore my Ink Modern Buckle on the last day of my work trip. Good morning, Apple Watch wearers!
