I've seen a lot of listings from this seller with mostly great feedback
if they were fake, wouldn't you know from the feel of the material?
are there any good fake sport bands that aren't obviously just silicone instead of that fluoroelastemer
Got a tip for us?

I ordered from this seller and the band was authentic. No issues at all.
Maybe we could use a thread that distinguishes between an authentic Apple Band and a knockoff. Many times I have seen auction on eBay that the seller is selling a knockoff and passing it off as an authentic Apple branded band.

Looks nice. I just bought a Mint from the same seller based on your pics. Not a bad price of $38 USD for a discontinued band brand new!
SGS with Midnight Blue Classic Buckle Band (old and new buckle). I think the SS parts go surprisingly well with the two-color aluminium body. The difference is far more subtle in person. What do you think? Which buckle do you prefer (I think the old one is a bit more difficult to take off)?
On a side note, I decided return the Marine Green Sport Band. Very nice color, but received zero compliments, and a friend even asked why I chose the color. I think it would look better on a more tanned skin. Lemonade Sport Band on the other hand -- compliments galore.

Folks in the UK, it looks like John Lewis is selling their previous seasons colours off cheap. I think these are ex-demo bands at £20 a pop. Might be worth checking your local store.
I noticed quite a few brand new 42mm sport and woven nylon bands are on sale for 17 euros here. I think even if you factor in shipping costs, these will still be far cheaper than directly from Apple. Some of these are probably out of print. PM me if interested.

Thanks a lot! I asked you in a PM if you could help to order a couple - of those - I would be very grateful!
That multitronic store has some fairly good prices on some of the leather band styles. Only if they had the white classic buckle......
Hahah im also surprised to see this...
Im hunting a few 38mm bands for one co forumer here...
Found the blue cobalt and dark olive hahah
Blue cobalt ,there is one extra left ....
I could post updates from my local Target and Best buy but everyone has a black, midnight blue, and white already.
If that is an authentic OEM band from Apple then that is the last Classic Buckle I have been looking for.
Yes, this is a very reliable retailer with physical stores. I just recently purchased my Classic Buckle from them. Be warned though, I believe this one is with the new buckle.
Good info to know. Unfortunately I am in the US. Great price for the white classic buckle though
