Why can't they label the color of every band on the inside like they did with "pride 2020"? that way we would not have to guess on what color band we have
Got a tip for us?

Jealous you have one. One of these days...

Probably just didn't think about it, and now that there are nearly 100 different colors, it's too late to start now.

That's what it says on the website, but my Apple Store app says "We have everything necessary to complete your order. We'll update your delivery date when your order is preparing to ship."
At the same time, it's stuck on Processing, while the pride 2020 is "Preparing to ship." Getting mixed signals here.

Just had a revelation: All colors but purple are exactly the same as existing sport bands, so, likely recycled factory seconds?
Maybe purple also came from recycled factory seconds, just for an unreleased purple? Possibly a new purple this fall?
Hahaha let's hope for the new purple for this year! it's a very lovely color.
If they randomised the order the stripes are in, I could envision this. I.e. if you could make five Pride bands from five seconds. But since the same 'slice' of each colour is used on each band, meaning you could only make one Pride band from five seconds, I can't envisage there being enough seconds from each colour to support the creation of what is likely one of the better-selling standalone bands.
I would assume they just melt down the seconds or otherwise repurpose them into long strips, which are then cut and pressed together.
Never too late to start labeling the bands now.Better late than never.
My OCD says otherwise.
But just think if this way, if they were to start labeling the bands, how much money that would save you

Most of the bands I buy already have the name figured out, and those that don’t are easy to identify thanks to the charts by @emiaj. I think I’ve only been in the situation where I needed to know a name and couldn’t find a 100% accurate answer on the chart maybe once, and in that case it was just a matter of waiting until I received it to see in natural light. If you still can’t find out, just ask someone who knows. There are a lot of people here who are good with that sort of thing. I get how it can be useful, but the effort to go and print names on the back of every band would probably cost a lot.
Which is the band next to the Nike pride? Could be a good first step in IDing the closest comp for the body color on it.
My guess is that the Nike is closest to white (second generation) that started shipping with the s4. Kind of a boring conclusion and makes me want more Nike bands lighter than PP.

So beautiful. Where did you get it? I am waiting for mine to be delivered from ChargerStore. Hopefully next week. I can't wait.

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...

Wow. I did try that I thought anyway - but I tried it again now and it’s there. After a reboot of the Watch. Thanks. What I really want is the California one, and that doesn’t seem to be working. Is it located near the white, pink etc. faces? I’ve been right through quickly and don’t see it.
Also from Chargerstore. I ordered it on April 22 so it took almost a month this time. I previously bought pollen from them and that one came faster. I find all my deliveries are very delayed these days compared to a month ago. Anyway this one was well worth it. I hope yours comes soon!

Apparently the California one won’t be available until the phone update to 13.5 which is allegedly coming today but I haven’t seen an update yet. I want that face too!
Really excited to have the whole White/Pure Platinum/Flat Silver spectrum!
I didn’t want to want a pride band, but this IRL is pulling at my heartstrings 😧

mhhh. Is it possible to bring them close together in sunlight?
I rebooted both my watch and phone and I am still not getting any of the new faces 😢
I don't think we will get access to these till the iOS is changed on our phones. The main pride one can be changed though just from the watch however, not your phone. You can customise the old pride band, to make it new. But the California one, we can't do till iOS 13.5 comes. I'm waiting eagerly to use with the Nike one!
