They're running the release candidate watch build. Apple released it earlier today. Some folks like to run the betas/pre-release OS to scour out the stuff that eventually trickles out to the final build etc.
Got a tip for us?

That Naturel Sable looks sleek!!! I promised myself just one band a season but, ooh!
And even when you have 17.4/10.4 getting them to appear on the phone will still be hard, lol. The watchface team needs a new lead.
It’s not new software day if I’m not rebooting the watch just to get a new color to stay selected for more than a second.The color picker is _AWFUL_. But you know that
Don’t even get me started with how every watch completely freezes on the picker like 50 seconds after I turn it on (this is prob not something single watch owners encounter lol)
This gives me pause because I have the Biscuit…but so does buying the new Vert because I have the Bambou. I’m very torn…
I’m not a fan of any green except a darker or vibrant greens.
The new vert reminds me of the walls in my office from 2000s. People always described it as vomit green.
To each their own but the new sable is the best leather color IMO from spring/summer 24’ 45mm.
Just seen that the new bands are out (insanely busy at work so didn’t pop on here yesterday).
Blue Celeste or Blanc. That is the question.
You all know the answer is probably both!

Vert Criquet is my favourite this season, by a mile. Reminds me a lot of the lovely Mint Sport Band from ages ago.
Some quick photos of the Orange and Blue Jean Tricot bands, which arrived very quickly!
They are a different weave to the Bridon bands, meaning they're not quite as soft, although still much softer than woven nylon. They are similar in thickness to the "base" Bridon without the chevrons, so they are still very flexible. I imagine they will be very comfortable in hot weather between the looser knit and the holes. They also revert to same sizing as the woven nylon options, whereas the Bridon was shorter.
Bleu Jean is a little darker than the leather version. Still a very nice blue though, I really like it. I'm not sure if I will keep the orange one, as I already have plenty of orange options. But I'll see how I feel after a few days with them. I definitely want to pick up the Jaune de Naples colour though.

Just a guess, could be that the US stock hasn’t made it over yet to ship out from there.
I say this just because I felt the new H24 Herbes Vives fragrance was basically limited to just France when they dropped it!
I was going to counter by saying that I can’t remember a release where it was more than a 12 hour delay for the U.S. website.
But you bring up a good point. With the conflict going on around the Suez Canal, ships are having to take a longer route and I’ve read this is delaying goods.
I’m fine if they want to wait until April for U.S. release. I just picked up a few bands from Apple yesterday and that gives me time to financially recover for the leather releases 😂
Yes 41mm, with the original 38mm Bleu Jean Double Tour from 2015.
Great observation! I didn’t see that until now. If only all the bands were that easy to distinguish.
Anyone know why the 41mm (and only the 41mm) Kaki Kilim is listed as "new" on the Apple Store website? 45mm from September continues to be unavailable.
Kaki was only available for the 45mm at release
I forgot about that, thanks for clarifying. I knew I had a fart in my brain when I couldn't figure that out.
