Still not seen a picture of the Royal pulse sport band, anyone have one?

I meant the sport band.
 
Some shots of the aubergine modern buckle with S5 space grey.

If I get a chance tomorrow, I’ll take a photo for you. The best description I can think of is it’s a lighter shade of Ocean Blue (at least to my old eyes). It has a similar hue.

Well, after reading this description I ordered Alaskan Blue … and you were absolutely SPOT ON. It is indeed a lighter Ocean Blue and has that same – very subtle – purple tint. Loving it!
 
Whaaa? That aubergine buckle looks like silver stainless! I ordered it thinking it was gold? If silver, I’m sunk, and need to cancel that order! Please say it’s just the picture, or my ipad screen..
 
Phew...also great because apple is saying my order # does not match their records. (I was ready to cancel if it was silver) In fact, the last order they show from me is the dragonfruit sport band from the summer selection, yet I ordered and have received the lemon cream band, ordered on release day. Delivery is scheduled toward the end of October for aubergine, and I’m hoping that or the fact that their orders aren’t showing correctly is the reason for the confusion re the order #. Hope you love the band. I thought it looked perfect for my more dressed up band when I saw it...but only if it was gold!

It is gold but not as yellow gold as I was expecting.
No that’s just typical Apple store lighting, it’s a perfect match for the gold ss

eta: my aubergine just shipped (messed up the size the first time and had to re-order), will Post when it comes 🤟🏽

Alas, I don’t think the Aubergine Modern Buckle’s golden shade is a perfect match with gold SS. The strap is a yellower gold, and the Series 4 gold SS is a darker, more bronze shade of gold:

Close enough to look good, though.
Yeah wait I’m wrong. I’ve only seen it in the store when I linked it up with the floor S5...I totally forgot to investigate if the S5 gold is different than the S4 gold. Is it? They changed the iPhone gold too, right? I guess I’ll see with my own eyes tomorrow. Or were my eyes deceiving me as to the floor model aubergine and S5 case?
 
I've been wanting a black or grey leather loop after getting a Midnight Blue loop. They're insanely comfortable and really dress up a watch from the sporty appearance of loops & bands. The $99 price point is much more appealing too! Congrats on the bands guys.

Also waiting on delivery of the Meyer lemon leather loop and my desert sand Nike Sport band is preparing to ship!!

That looks really nice.

Please post the Meyer lemon loop pic! I'm curious what it looks like on a dark watch.

I agree, I've been thinking about a bright blue or the lemon leather loop & I think the new prices are more fair (along with Milanese). I'm kinda waiting since I'm not sure about the M or L size.

side note - what's with the long wait times for leather loops?

Who wears the cocoa sportsband on the black stainless steel watch?

I do. It’s a great band. It’s my go to Sport Band during the winter - a nice shade of dark brown
Not going to pretend that these are the most accurate pictures, but here's a quickie comparison for pine and clementine:


Gray
Blue Horizon
Ocean Blue
Dark Teal
Pine Green
Spearmint
Marine Green
Hermes
Clementine
Orange

Geez, Clementine is quite red!
