I have a friend looking for bands but she is in Canada..I’ve never heard of watches2u.. do those come in boxes? How are the prices?

So i finally got the bands I ordered from watches2u. The prices were good, after the exchange rate I got 2 bands for 56 bucks; retail unopened boxes, only downside was that it took nearly 3 weeks.

I left off the two Hermes leather bands as I know you don't collect those.

The army green / dark olive sport loop looks awesome - that might be a part of my collection when they update their website...

I can't remember Apple have added new bands like this with press release and all, and haven't updated their website accordingly

Someone needs to get some ultraviolet here to the states, I got one but my friend who wears 42mm still hasn’t found one either.

I can order a couple for you, if you can accept apple.de prices (59€) + shipping to US...

Best Buy was pretty good until this last batch 9/17 area. They will send out emails saying they cancel the order or never actually get stock. I don’t know if others have had better luck.

Ultraviolet in 38mm seems even rarer...
I don’t collect 38mm ones, but it is also available here...

I just bought 3 bands from this guy. Well, actually five, because two of them come in lots of 2--bands that came with previous versions of gold watches. I will probably be looking to get rid of the extras, so I will post when I get them, in case any collectors are looking for those.

Hopefully the seller's bands turn out to be legitimate. I ordered the 2 pack cocoa also

Yeah, it's confusing because I've never seen knock offs cone with gold pins. But why does he have so many of them??
Only legitimate reason would be because they were returns and the gold watches were used as refurbs. This left the bands and he bought a big lot of them. Like sold by Best Buy wholesale or something. But all of that would be legitimate reasons

hey
thanks for this chart very useful to check the availability of each bands.

i just have a question, are you sure that the fog and cloud bands are different? cause in France/Switzerland the fog band is sell under the french "nuage" name, so under the translated cloud name.
I just bought the french fog version "nuage" yesterday at the Geneva Apple Store sold as the fog version, model MLJU2ZM/A and asked to apple guy the difference between the cloud and fog version, and he told me that the difference is that they can't sell the translated french fog name here, it's only for marketing purpose, but that there are actually the same.

Moreover, does the little watch image near some band means that the band was only sold with the apple watch? i can't find the legend in the discussion

if someone can help me, thanks a lot

have a great weekend

Alex

I updated the history chart with these bands:
  • Close the Rings 2.0 Staff Only Band (Temporarily it's in the row of Fall 2017, will be moved to Spring 2018 when new bands come out in March)
  • Gold Link Bracelet seen with some celebrities at Apple Watch launch

Alex - the first ceramic Edition Apple Watch was sold with a Cloud band with a white ceramic pin exclusive to that Apple Watch alone. The very light gray colored Cloud band was never sold separately. Fog was first released as a slightly darker gray colored band in April 2016 among the other new colors that came out that Spring. Fog only lasted for 2 seasons, and then it was discontinued; it was resurrected at the end of last year once more. Fog and Cloud are indeed different despite local translation names which may vary by country (for example, Flash in the US is called Blitz overseas). And yes, the image of the Apple Watch on the chart means that band was sold paired with that Apple Watch alone, thus the watch image next to the Cloud band — it was never sold on its own.

The same guy also has 38mm cloud ones with the ceramic pin, and he had some ‘beige” with gold pin that I also got. I’m wondering if it’s the stone that was with the 42mm series 0 rose gold.
