Every Apple Watch band Apple released. Ever.

[Boardiesboi]

I’m in the UK.

I don’t have the Nike edition so I don’t get the dotted watch face, unfortunately.

I’m attaching a photo with the Pride digital face. However, I won’t be using that one, as it becomes too colourful. Also I don’t like the band with the gold watch very much, I guess with space grey or silver would be much better.

Thanks! Looks great! Can’t wait to receive mine.

Just received both new Pride Edition bands! The normal sport band looks so much better in person:

 

[FenC]

They’re shipped, but due Thursday for ours in NZ. I just did the update and I’m not even getting the faces yet

And here’s a picture of all the pride edition bands together:

It does look better. Looks great in fact.

Ordered the Nike pride band. Very unique looking.

Just received notice my Nike band will be delivered today by UPS. 😀

Have you tried setting one of the older pride faces on your watch then customizing from the watch itself? That’s the only way I can get them. I don’t see them on my phone at all right now.

Wow, that looks much better than I thought! Especially the uneven stripes! Quite painterly, like strokes of a brush.

Is the surface smooth like all other Sport Bands or can you feel a border between the colours at all?

Against all odds, I think the new Sport Band is actually the best Rainbow/Pride band ever.

It's totally smooth, just like any other sport band! IRL I like it better than the nike version, the uneven strips looks really natural and the colors are so vibrant! I agree that this is probably the best pride band ever.

I wish they also release all 6 colors individually, haha. I'll dig into my collection later to see if any of the color stripes matches to the standard sport bands.

Aaand my order is in.

Yeah, let‘s play „guess the most similar colours“. My money is on:
Hibiscus - Hermes - Lemonade - Spearmint - Royal Blue - Ultraviolet.

Hahaha I just compared them to my collection, you got 2 of them right!

Turns out most of these colors are already released. It's a remix of Winter 2018, Spring 2019, Summer 2019 and Spring 2020:

- Red: Exactly the same as Hibiscus (Winter 2018);
- Orange: Exactly the same as Papaya (Spring 2019);
- Yellow: Exactly the same as Canary Yellow (Summer 2019);
- Green: Exactly the same as Spearmint (Spring 2019);
- Blue: Exactly the same as Surf Blue (Spring 2020);
- Purple: lighter and less blue than Ultra Violet.

Should we expect the purple to be released some time in the future? 🤔

Damn, I was shifting between Lemonade/Canary as well as Royal/Surf ... could have been 4/5 (as the violet is new).

I am waiting for the Postman. My wife want to go outside for a walk. I Send her to have fun by bicikle.

I also compared the watch face colors...
Very interesting that in the Pride face the color stripes of Papaya, Canary Yellow, Spearmint and Surf Blue are exactly the same as the single-color faces, however the red stripe doesn't match the hibiscus watch face (the color of the watch band is the same for sure).

It's quite interesting, actually -- these photos are leading me to believe that I might like the Apple one slightly better than Nike's. Everyone is so focused on the inconsistency of the lines on the Apple Pride SB, but has anyone noticed the glaring lack of consistency in the perforations of the Nike Pride SB? You can actually clearly see (even without a close-up) that the perforations don’t go all the way through to the bottom as they have with all prior Nike SBs, due to the underside having that stone/fog tone to it!

Alas, I like the look of both, and have one of each arriving later this week.. just thought I'd share my thoughts based on these early shots.

For me, the colors in the Nike one is not very noticeable IRL, that's why I like the Apple one better. The uneven stripes actually make the design more alive, IMO.

Yeah, I feel I might lean the same way! Thanks for promptly sharing the shots, by the way

I’m glad I ordered both. Thanks for the photos. Hope you enjoy them! Mine don’t come until next week

Jealous of the 2016-2020 prides, by the way. Only one I have is 2018. Need to grab the rest some time.

Papaya and yellow being the wrong way round is making me twitch...

 

[Marcel55]

Looks great in Real. The Sport Band is a little bit smoother than a normal one.

The Nike Band.

The Sport Band is a little bit smoother than a normal one.

That's usually the case for brand new bands. They lose their smoothness over time as their coating gets rubbed off from normal wear and tear

 

[Marcel55]

My small collection without a Classic Leather Band and another one. And without my sealed Ultra violet, until i know if i hold it.

Hahaha I just noticed that! Now I can't unsee it... 😖

Obscure question but has anyone seen a comparison of the Desert Sand Nike Band be the Light Bone Band?

I’ve seen them from Pure platinum with either of the two but never those two side by side.

someone will talk me into or out of owning a Light Bone based on this. Thanks/No thanks in advance!

The Bone is lighter than Desert Sand.

The Nike Band.

Awesome photoshoot. Answers all my questions. The "Pride 2020" text seems a bit big, but I guess it's fine. Love the sort of childish wavy lines a lot more than I thought I would on the normal pride. The more photos I see here, the less I want to return it, rather just keep it in my drawer. The Nike pride is one I'd actually wear. Excited for both either way.
