I have the white sport band that came with my watch (a silver sport) plus a Milanese loop and a black sport band. From the pictures, I'd expected to really love the green sport band but the colour isn't quite right for me (I'd like it to e a bit zingier); the blue band, which I hadn't expected to like based on the photographs, is quite tempting.

I reckon I'll get at least one more strap at some point but at the moment I'm waiting to see what else comes along. I'd like a red band, in an ideal world a deep red (but red not burgundy) classic buckle but I'd settle for a red sport band.

Yeah, I know. I went a bit crazy. But I love the apple bands. Can't seem to find many third party bands that I like as much. My next purchase will probably be a stone leather loop...but not for a while ;)

6 bands.

Green sports band with my watch. (Apple)
Black sports band bought soon after. (Apple)
Blue sports band bought a couple weeks ago. (Apple)
Milanese loop (Apple)
Hoco 3 bead band.
Hoco brown leather band (worn like, once I think).

Also able to borrow the wife's white sports band, if she isn't wearing it (we're supposed to share, but she's hogging that one!)

And have my eye on the new hoco link bracelet at some point...

I have 3 Sport Bands for my Space Grey Sport

Black - the original one it came with, use for going out for occasions so it's noticed less.
White - For work as it is a white shirt for work and less noticeable underneath it.
Red - use this as a daily driver for general use

Are you concerned about the weakness of the magnets on your leather loop bands? I just got one from Wearlizer and the magnets are markedly weaker than the OEM band....

I've now added the red sport band to my collection. I also want the dark blue and pale turquoise ones, I think, but they didn't have those in store.

I'm at 3 right now, but I have a birthday coming up, so hopefully more.

Really want to pick up the JUUK bracelet in polished and a leather band next, to cover all the basics.

The light colored sport band in this pic that you're not sure about is the new turquoise sport band - note that the color is a very close match to the turquoise display theme, you can check that on your watch face for a closer idea of the color. In real life, it is a touch more colorful bluish green than the picture (which makes it too gray). The red leather loop is third-party, and quite nice, but not quite as good as the real ones. The blue sport band is the original blue, not the new one. And the blue leather loop is the original "bright blue" not the new "midnight blue". Figured the overlapping colors might help someone trying to gauge colors.
Oh, so that's 8, I guess.

Now I don't feel so bad.

I've been using a lunatik epik (inspired/replica) set up for the last few weeks and am starting to get a little tired of it's bulk. In the gym my wrist keeps pressing down on the crown and activating siri plus I think it reduces the amount of haptic feedback.

Looking to try out the supcase rugged setup.

Also still haven't decided on which casual strap to get that's if I even end up keeping the apple watch.

So far I only have a black and antique white sport band (Apple)
Mostly using the antique white band at the moment :)

On the way I have a Casetify custom band and a brown leather band which I'm both looking forward to wearing :D

I would love to eventually save up enough to get the midnight blue modern buckle (Apple)
