You probably have the default one for your Watch when you bought it, but did you purchase any extra ones?

If so, which one and why? For utility purpose or fashion purpose?

Accessory related, think this belongs in the accessory section.

I'd get more if Apple would be a little more giving in their availability. C'mon, Cupertino, get with it!

When they all show up (including the watch), I'll have 3, and I want them for fashion purposes. I've pre-ordered the Click adapter, and two inexpensive leather bands from AliExpress to go with it. I want the leather so the watch will look a little nicer for work or slightly dressy occasions. I may also try to sew a couple of bands (to use with the Click) just for fun, and to have something other than leather or fluoro-plastic on my wrist. I've actually been having fun looking at different patterns to figure out how I want to do it. I think I want to use some D loops so I don't have to punch holes in fabric, though. I know I also probably want to make a 2 piece strap so that the sensors on the back of the watch don't get covered.

Just the White Sports Band.

Originally ordered a Milanese and BSB but cancelled cause the WSB is gorgeous. Pleasantly surprised how good it looks with pretty much any attire.

Probably still pick up a Milanese later in the year, or even the Midnight Blue modern buckle.

Just the one that came with my watch (BSB), but just ordered the green sport band to use while exercising to keep black one looking nice as I read it shows wear and tear more.

Says it won't ship until end of may - june though.

Two, one for "everyday" and then one to be more "fashionable" during nice things. I have the 42mm Black Sport with the Black band. I expect to wear it like that most of the time, but I ordered a Black leather loop for "fancy" things.

I bought it with the Classic Band, mostly because that's all that was left in the early shipping window by the time I ordered (2 hours after pre-orders began), but I'm happy with the band. I do have Milanese Loop and Link bands on order.

Two black leather classic buckle, one Apple and one third party that I can wear to get sweaty and gross. Not my first choice, but I was desperate.

I have the classic band now and the green sport on order. The classic will be for daily wear and the sport for when I work out.

I currently only have the Milanese Loop that came with my watch, but that's just because I'm waiting on shipping on one band from Apple and 2 from Click.

Apple:
Milanese Loop (that came with Watch) - Daily wear
Green Sport Band - mostly for exercise, although I'm sure I'll wear it out and about some days. I work in education, so I may even wear it to work sometimes; I get away with purple Chuck Taylors on my feet at work, I'm sure no one will mind a bright green watch band on my wrist.

Click:
Light Brown leather band
Black Stainless Steel band

Both Click bands are a cheap way to switch up the look from time to time. I'm sure that I'll still wear the Milanese Loop most of the time, but it'll be nice to switch it up sometimes.

Ordered 42 SS with black Sport band for everyday wear and have a black leather loop on order for business wear.

Similar for me. I got the 42mm SS watch with the black sport band for everyday utility wear. I have also preordered a blue leather loop and milanese loop for special and more formal occasions. The blue leather loop finally shipped today and should be here Friday. The milanese loop is still showing May but no specific date or delivery window.
