I have the pine sport band, lemon cream sport bands, then the Alaskan blue, midnight blue, pomegranate, anchor gray, and khaki loops. Then I have the black and pink nike sport band. All coming tomorrow, except the Nike one. I want to see pictures before in order the desert sand and royal pulse.
 
I saw the Alaskan Blue Sports Band in that glass window inside the table (couldn’t get a pic it was too busy), it’s a lighter midnight blue... looked pretty nice!

Just received the new PINE GREEN band.. not the green I was hoping for, so thinking of returning it. It has a saturation, grey hey. to light. Was hoping for more darker army green.. It looked darker on the apple site..

I just got mine too and yes it's lighter than I expected but I like it.

That band does go very nicely with your watch though.

Ooooh, I love that. I was hoping for less of a generic green, but the name Pine didn't give me much hope. I actually like it better than I thought I would. Can't wait to get mine and see how it looks on my SS Gold 44mm. Thanks for the photos.
 
Got the ship notice for Alaska Blue loop yesterday, out for delivery.

Nike S5 and bands set for Oct 4.
iPhone 11 pro is late, just got charged for it today and no ship notice.

I'm looking forward to seeing evidence of your haul:cool: I thought for sure you might go with Titanium this time.

The new Titanium Edition watch is a catastrophe! Look - it is one day old and it is SO scratched!

Ceramic Edition watch looks weird - crown has black cup and there is a visible gap between crown and the watch body... Not sure if you can feel it looking at my photos - but it is there.

The Nike one looks very nice with an always-on screen! And the new desert-something Nike band looks like the old platinum/black one, just a tiny bit warmer and with all writings on the band done in a vivid neon-green or neon-purple colors (not so beige as Light Bone/Black, though)

Back to Apple he goes. Thank you for showing us. I can take that off my list for sure.

Back when I had regular watches...nothing to fancy $200 to $300 range I got tired of SS scratches and bought titanium. All I can remember is there were no more microscratches and all huge scratches with titanium. I figured Apple would use much higher quality materials though

the funny part is people believed it will be more durable than aluminum and stainless steel. welp this is totally unacceptable

I feel a little better now seeing you were at Apple playing with demos.

Some idiot may have taken his keys to it.

If I were going to opt for something other than Aluminum, which I'm quite happy with, it would for sure be stainless, likely the traditional stainless since you could polish it with Cape Cod cloth. Ceramic is an interesting material and I'd consider one of those as well but not unless they made a black or gunmetal version. Still it's hard for me to rationalize going for anything other than aluminum given considering how often and how significant upgrades are.
 
Wait thats supposed to be desert sand or the pure platinum? Did apple have a darker saturation picture for every band this fall?
