The Blue Lin/Vert Véronèse Jumping Single Tour band just went back in stock on the Apple site and I just jumped on it. Really looks like a pretty bands from the pics I’ve seen. Blue Lin Swift leather band is one of my favorite bands too. So excited for this one.
Now if we could get a black and white jumping tour in a 45mm that would be great.

So I decided to take my chances & contact Apple Support for a replacement Sports Band. SUCCESS!!!!! I was able to order a 45mm Orange Band for my SB S7. It took about 15min through iMessage.
From what I saw the 41mm comes with the S/M band and the 45mm comes with the M/L. Not sure they made them in different combos.
Just use a Black (G1, first generation) S/M attachment. Almost the same color.
Here's a listing for the S/M half (and a M/L) for $9 though you can also get a full band for $16.
eBay seller Chargerstore has unreleased bands with a 41mm M/L half and a 45mm S/M. I believe this seller is the only place you can even get these. They're all Apple OEM.
He also has some gold pin and space black pin orange bands, which I'm sure @athousandbands has probably mentioned here at least once or twice.

Took another shot at Rouge H Circuit with the new phone and more time to edit this devilishly strange color and a retouched watchface (it’s actually not this close to the band but the best I can do)
Anyone know where to get some deployment clasps?
I am thinking about getting some more single tours but I'm honestly loving the deployment clasp and would love to put it on my non-deployment clasp bands. There's places like eBay or etsy, but wanted to see if anyone had experience with any particular website/seller.

People generally have good luck with getting high quality Hermes-alike bands with good leather on TaoBao. But if you don’t know Mandarin, you need a go between, I believe.
Or maybe if you’re not on that side of the firewall, you need someone.
Mine came in on Sunday. I'm not sure why it was a little delayed despite being an early order.
So far, the Space Black stainless looks great. Before the S8 announcement, upgrading from an S6 space black titanium or getting a black stainless was a tossup -- then the titanium model was dropped. So Hermes it was.
I really like the black gradient face (it's odd the base OS doesn't offer shades of grey for it, honestly). The horse is silly and cute. Circulaire is decent. Don't much care for Circuit H. And I need to order an orange sport band.
I am really taken with rainbow Contour and keep going back to it, and the increased screen size (over Series 4-6) is pretty nice.
Do any of the faces offer orange hands other than the base "Hermes" face?

I wish they release the Colvert against. I really want it.
Also I want the Jaune Ambre, Anemone in 45mm 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻.
Hopefully some day.
Yes it is!
Speaking of deployment clasp, does anyone else get marks imprinted in their skin because of it?
And no, it's not too tight. I don't like my bracelets too tight.
I mean, it's not the end of the world, but I feel it would be more comfortable without the deployment clasp.
Hmm. I personally don't get marks imprinted. Does it happen because maybe when you work on computer or something, it pushes into ur wrist?
I always went with the deployment clasp during the S2/3 days. Then I went single tour and much prefer it. The band actually wears better as well. I always got strange marks on the band and also my skin.
I think ebene was released in a single tour last year for the first time. Looks good though.
the simple buckle is more comfortable and lays flatter, but the deployment is cool, easier to put on, less wear and tear on the leather, but there are downsides to the deployment. I'm glad I have a deployment strap, but will be getting only simple buckles from now on.
I think the deployment band is harder to put on (kind of a hassle) and wears much worse than the single tour based on my experience (2+ years). If you change bands like I do every single day for workouts it makes it even worse. I’m so glad I ditched them 4+ years ago - and the single tours are cheaper which is an added benefit.
