I ... make a point of not counting. Because counting would lead to multiplication, which would lead to answers to questions I do not want to ask.
Ahaha I see that point. I count them only becuase I want to have the overview. Kinda like a chart.

Did I mentioned I do videos as well. So if you are looking for some color or want me to take a video about some just let me know :)

Share your channel!

On this note, why doesn’t the famous Juan&Only get in on this thread?

Finally received it! Guess I was correct to grab it when it went back in stock... the 38mm one is now sold out on Nike’s website as well.
If you don’t want your box LMK, I bought mine on chargerstore but collect the boxes too.

I got a total orange jacket and total orange basketball shoes recently in anticipation of total orange heaven’s gate kool-aid—I mean Apple Watch Nike sport band
I have been hoping for a total orange Nike band for over a year now. Make it happen!

I mean that’s a spring color, right, so it’s gonna be another year’s wait.
 
A question for people that have got a lot of bands: how do you decide bands’ rotation?
Doesn’t seem to be the norm but my daily/go-to is the link bracelet.

Otherwise loop/sport/nike based on something that matches what I’m wearing, Hermès for dressier outfits.
 
I'm glad you like it, that's my channel.

Nice videos! Most unboxings are in strange/horrible light but these give a really good of impression of the real colours.

Btw how do you like the Hermes Bordeaux Single Tour? It‘s the only band I don‘t have but wish I had.

Thank you! I’m trying my best. Yes and in my eyes some are too quick.

I do like it but I wish it would be just a bit brighter. In a low light it looks like the Ébène Deployment Buckle.
But when on a sunny day, it’s really pretty.
Oh you do have all of them? I’d love to get the Bleu Agate Epsom.

Spring? Fall. I mean, that's when the pumpkins are.
I would love to be wrong but Total Orange feels like a more peach/flamingo/papaya/apricot than orange/spicy orange/nectarine/clementine, although consulting our holy text I was surprised to see just how many oranges (that second group) were released in fall/winter. Plus Nike’s track record has their few warm tones dropping spring. But they have released so few bold colors that it’s not much to extrapolate from.

Finally, I received it from the eBay seller, my 19th band. But being bit confused with the color, I just realized I have purchased 8 sports bands before, and bought all of them at Apple store; so I have never doubted on colors. But, this Royal Blue… I need help from you.

1st picture: Flash, Product Red(3rd), Khaki, and Royal Blue? (under yellow light bulb in dining room)
2nd picture: the same bands (under white light bulb)
3rd picture: the same as 2nd picture, but with iPhone flash when taking the picture.

I thought the Royal Blue would be much like the color of LA Dodgers cap, very deep and vivid blue, but this band that I've got is bit different from what I expected. In the 2nd and 3rd picture, it looks just like the Royal Blue that I've seen in this thread and in eBay, but in real life, the color just looks as the first picture, bit washed and dull, not such deep and vivid one.

Please advise.

if it looks like the first pic IRL, could be Denim or Azure. My Royal Blue looks just like the second photo in natural light, so I’m not sure. How was the seller’s reputation?

According to your descriptions, what you really want is Delft Blue.

All Hermes bands? Oh no, absolutely not. The only Hermes Band I have is the Feu. I like spending on bands, but Hermes is a little over the top, price-wise. I have many Classic Buckle leather bands and thus collected (almost) all the leather colours I dig. Well, except for a burgundy/bordeaux colour, because that one was only released as an Hermes colour (just like Orange/Feu) …

I found your post #4867, which compared the two blue colors, Royal & Delft in daylight.
Yes, It seems I wanted more blue just like you said - Delft.

But I had thought Delft was bit more navy color in your previous post. :) that's why I was exploring only Royal in eBay.

Thank you for your help! And your photos are so helpful!
 
Yeah I thought about it and it kinda feels like UK shipping puts it on par with the resale market, no? I guess still nice to secure one sealed in box.

I would have liked to purchase the band for retail price if I could have. A few on ebay are used and no box that are going for $100+. I will continue to be patient. I did end up with an ultraviolet, used once with box, for retail.

See, that‘s what makes taking pictures of the bands so tricky - in different lighting conditions their appearance changes a lot! Add to this that not all cameras capture colour perfectly and not all displays show them perfectly and you get a lot of variance.

Thank you for your help! And your photos are so helpful!
