I also picked up Pollen and have it set for delivery tomorrow. I haven't liked any of the nylon bands that have come out before so this will be my first. It looks like exactly what I want to wear on spring/summer weekends. If I like it I might also pick up Tahoe Blue.
Considering ordering a Pollen or Orange one, might wait to see what they're like in real life first though.
I ordered the Berry for my wife ... it arrived about 20 minutes ago and waiting for her to open this evening. I'll post pics at some point.
Here is an unboxing video of the Berry Nylon band (and the grey/black Nike+ band). It's in German but for a first IRL look it should do:
Just got mine:
For comparison purposes:
Only the blue ones:
If you notice, the new woven Midnight blue is the old Navy Tahoe with the colors inside out.

Nice collection. The woven midnight blue might be my next option.
The Apple Store has now all the bands to try on but nothing to sell. Stock arrives tomorrow:
The sales associate also said the new classic buckles have a spring in the buckle that helps it stay closed.
I thought the pollen one would look worse than this. In fact, I may get one:

More bands, including the Nike ones, which are also in stock until tomorrow:
Cool thanks. Need to compare it with Fog and Concrete. The striped blue looks v nice!
Interesting. More towards the "Walnut" side of the spectrum then?
I have fog and bought concrete the other day. Returned the concrete as was just too close to fog to warrant keeping. Fog is probably my fave sports band along with white.
I was just at the Apple Store and the colors are brilliant in the display case. Far "louder" than the pics on the website. Orange and red are gorgeous.
I tried to stand my watch up like that and it just tips. I guess the weight difference between sport and stainless is too great.
Or maybe it's that levitate spell.
Really happy with the blue.

Could be levitate. But more likely the case that the Pollen band just happened to be kind of stiffer out of the box than the other nylon bands I have. It feels really nice. I've ordered the others as well.
