Huh? You were spot on, actually. Hibiscus is quite close to Pink Fuchsia, but the latter was only ever released as a classic buckle leather strap. In your picture there is Hibiscus (I guess) next to Dragon Fruit. And Dragon Fruit is indeed unlike any band Apple ever released.
You are right. I thought my original quote was saying Hibiscus looks like Fuschia but realized I was referring to your picture.

I would consider Dragon fruit and Hibiscus to be on two opposite ends of what fuschia (the actual color) is

It isn’t I brought my hibiscus band in to the store to compare and this is the hibiscus band with the mysterious pink band (Hibiscus looks red under this lightning pic, its not product red tho)
Looks like we found the mysterious pink band..

It's clearly Dragon fruit..the new summer band.. Looks like Apple has had this band out for a while on display
 
The new rainbow sports loop was delivered yesterday.

Does anyone have delft blue and blue horizon?

I already have blue horizon, but it's pretty dark and doesn't really "pop," which I want since it's summer.

Is it redundant to get delft blue if I already have blue horizon?

I have both but am not at home for pics.

Blue Horizon and Cobalt are pretty similar.


Blue Horizon and Delft are nothing alike to me.

Of the 10 shades of blue I have, Delft is one of my favorites
 
I looked at Delft in the store and found it closest to what Apple showed as royal blue. It was a very nice shade, but I already have 2 or 3 blues so I wound up passing for the time. If I see it pop up on eBay I may get it later.

Thanks! That makes me feel better about purchasing.

I've wanted delft blue, but didn't feel I could commit because of already having blue horizon. However, I feel like I'm going to regret not buying delft blue later when it's not available. And looking for 3rd party reseller that's not a knock off is such a pain.

Anyone else like this? Or am I the only one? :D

Finally bought a Flash Sport band on EBay. Wow I didn’t want to spend that much but the 42mm are rarely available.

Left to right: Royal Blue, Delft Blue, Blue Horizon. If I could only keep one of these, it would be Delft. But to me they are different enough to keep them all.

Thinking of getting a delft band even though i probably wont wear it.. seems like a color that may have a good resale value once its out of stock

Great pics of the delft blue! I ended up picking it up yesterday, and papaya. I really like it, and it’s definitely different enough from blue horizon. I will probably not be using that color until the fall now that I have delft blue.

I have the silver aluminum 44mm series 4 watch, which luckily goes with just about every color.

I posted this photo on IG stories today lol, these are all my sport bands. Not a super nice quality picture because of the IG camera quality, but I think it gets the point across.

i really hope they would do something else than rubber and sliced hallway carpets. i wonder why there is no even a single classic leather band to buy.

I dont have a single leather band! And that was my go to with regular watches.. and the modern buckle looks stupid af IMO..
