So glad this post is stickied, I sent a note to the mods awhile back asking them to sticky it because it's really good info to have, especially with the colors changing several times a year.
Got a tip for us?

What an awesome resource. Thanks so much.
One think I've noticed: the Space Black Link was available from the very beginning - the graphic shows it as a September 2015 introduction.
Also the name tag for a couple of Space Black Link is missing.
I posted on Reddit asking if people wanted together to create an archive of all Apple Bands ever released and was pointed to this thread.
Amazing work OP! I think it's 90% perfect. Have you considered adding bundled bands with matching hardware? I'm not sure how would include them without creating a different section. I think this is very important from a collector's perspective. It will be a great tool to look back historically to find bands that have matching hardware (as they're harder to come by anyway, as you're reliant on someone selling them on eBay).
Also... the rumored Gold Link bracelet... you know, the one Beyonce, Kanye etc. wore before the Watch was released to the public.

Thank you. I really appreciate it.
Not sure what happened to the name tag, might be a copy-and-paste-error between the different versions I am working with.
Added.Well, if I get it right, you're suggesting to add e.g. the currently available Concrete Sport Band with a gold pin to the overview as well? It might be a little to confusing and very specific, but I definitely will consider it for the next update—maybe I can add the various pin colors to the bands. So far, I added an small icon as indicator to every band available bundled with a watch only. Will upload the new image soon.
You're absolutely right, missed that one! Will try to add the Gold Link bracelet within the next update.
I've got three bands:
And I plan on getting the Black Leather Band with Classic Buckle.
- White Sport Band that came originally with my Apple Watch Sport
- Brown Leather Band w/ Classic Buckle I bought separately at a later moment
- Black Sport Band that came with my Apple Watch (SS version), replaced it with the Brown Leather Band
And I plan on getting the Black Leather Band with Classic Buckle.
Guys, I don't want to be the bad guy here and I highly appreciate everyone who is sharing his growing collection of Apple Watch bands with us—but there're enough threads for, where you can post the photos straight to the right audience. Please stay "on-topic" here, especially because it's a sticky thread. Thanks!
Had to adjust my "vote" back to "2/4" when I returned my Nike+ Apple Watch. I bought a Space Grey just for the Black/Volt band. My experience and the lack of stock has made me hesitate getting another one, back to my Series O with Orange Sport Band!
*** UPDATE November 6, 2016
Added an small icon as indicator to every band available bundled with a watch only.
Added all images of the first Apple Watch Edition
Completely re-build and re-arranged, one size only.
Added some titles/captions for all the different models of Apple Watch Hermès
Fixed some small issues. Whatever this means.
In case you need the original size to dive into details (HiRes image):

Have you tried CEX?Trying to find an Orange Apple 42mm band is really tough, even on eBay. Shame Apple discontinued that colour!

Love that colour, wearing it now. The "replacement" - Apricot. What is that?!
also liked the color. It is banal and extraordinary at the same time. I wanted to buy a bracelet, but then decided not to. Now it is not found.
You have to add them, otherwise it's not "Every Apple Watch band Apple released"
Yeah I've been thinking about how to convey these bands. Adding pin colors is a great idea. It suggests that at each generation of a band, it was available in specific pin/clasp colors. For example, the Coffee Nylon band with gold hardware: http://store.apple.com/xc/product/MNPP2LL/A Bought separately it only comes in Silver. Next generation it may only come in Silver (if Apple stops bundling the Gold one with Watch Series 3) etc.
The alternative is to have a whole section on unique bundled bands.
Awesome stuff!
Here's an idea for how to include the pin colour variations:
Just like how you have the watch symbol to indicate it is a bundled band only, you could add additional icons, such as a coloured circle, to indicate different pin/hardware colours. Here's a crude example to illustrate what I mean.
This way you could indicate the presence of different hardware combos without having to rework your poster or add a ridiculous number of at-first-glance-duplicate bands.
[Also:
- There is a superfluous "color" caption that's accidentally been left behind, just above the concrete Sport Band
- In the footnote "Mac OS" is killing my OCD... macOS! ]
Fantastic job, however I believe you've mislabeled the lavender sport bands as "lavendel." I don't own one, so I can't say with 100% certainty that's not what Apple called it, but that would be very odd.
