hey guys, not sure if this helps anyone, if nothing else its a good price. fry's has the
flash band in 38mm for 9.99
electric pink in 42mm for 44.64
Nice find!

This Frys search URL will (hopefully) list all Apple Watch items on clearance, sorted by (ascending) price. Looks like there's 8 bands in the $8-$12 range:
  • Woven Nylon - 42mm - Spicy Orange Check
  • Woven Nylon - 42mm - Berry Check
  • Woven Nylon - 38mm - White Stripe
  • Woven Nylon - 38mm - Midnight Blue Stripe
  • Woven Nylon - 38mm - Midnight Blue Check
  • Woven Nylon - 38mm - White Check
  • Woven Nylon - 38mm - Dark Olive Check
  • Sport Loop - 38mm - Flash
The "$45 on clearance" ones aren't as compelling (unless you really like the color - if 42mm Flash was $12, I'd grab that, but no).

yes, sorry, I completely just overlooked that there are people who like the woven bands. I always just look for band or loops. lol!
 
Hey everyone,

It's been a while since I've asked this but I'm hoping some of you have this information. I'm looking for the part numbers to the following bands. These are the only ones I don't have part numbers for.

Do me a favorite and send me a PM to remind myself to get you the 42mm United States Olympics band part number. I will get it for you when I get back from my travels.

No, hey, you brought the sale to my attention, thank you for that. I wouldn't have known to look. I just listed anything that was especially cheap. Personally, I mostly go for Bands - I know everyone is all gaga over the Loops - I'd probably rank them Bands, then Woven Nylon, then Loops.
 
Speaking about leather... LOOK WHAT FINALLY ARRIVED AFTER 2 MONTHS OF WAITING!!!

:eek::eek::eek:

REALLY, REALLY happy for you! That whole incident stressed ME out... I can only imagine what you were going through. Those are all beautiful bands, especially the Tatoutage, so whatever the trauma you suffered in the end it was worth it and I am so glad it worked out!

I own all the Olympic bands in 42mm so will get you the missing ones on your list.

I also own all the Hermes bands in 42mm (except Etain and Agate) so I will get you those as well. I do believe I have the serials for Etain and Agate in a spreadsheet somewhere, I'll take a look.

Anyway, consider those model numbers acquired :)

Nothing quite like it. As far as I’m aware this band and the Gala are the only two products Apple has ever put a printed pattern on. Very unique.

A little history behind the Tatoutage band, it’s a celebration of artist Robert Dallet (RIP) who designed a lot of the Hermes big cats (leopard and lion) prints in the 80s:

So I have decided to stop collecting the sport loops due to poor materials/quality.

The non reflective loops show quite a bit of wear on the parts where the velcro attaches and the threads start to look loose in other places which makes the loop look really bad. The nike ones, for me, lose their reflectiveness. Posted below is a picture of my second hyper grape loop, 1 month since taken out of the box.

I just think that the sport bands are a better bang for your buck long term if you like keeping your things in mint condition. I have not done anything crazy with my loops. Barely even got a rain drop on it and dont use it for working out.

Wait this really happens? i've never owned a reflective loop
