To my eyes it also makes it more classy for the more semi-formal clothing

I got the pollen watch band yesterday but will be sending it back. It's all a matter of personal taste, but I don't really like how it looks on my SS Apple watch.

I think Pollen looks best on the gold aluminum Apple watch, IMO. I didn't like it with my SS Apple watch so I'm sending it back to Apple.
.....I couldn't take it anymore!!! I tried to like the Midnight Blue band but just couldn't get over the fact of the silver buckle showing next to my Space Grey Apple watch - just didn't look right at all!!
Have now switched back to my Apple Black Nylon band with the space grey buckle - a perfect match for the Space Grey watch!!!
After looking at it while outside today, I loved how vibrant it was in the sunlight; I think I'm gonna keep it, and I agree it does look great on the gold. I looked at the orange and am not sure that I really like how it pairs with the gold anyway.
Caved and ordered an Orange online after seeing it in person at the Apple Store. Just loved how bright it looked, and the blue parts of it will match with most of the shirts I wear. Hopefully should be coming tomorrow.
Thanks for the offer but if it's all the same - I'll keep hold of it as I change my mind as often as I change my socks when it comes to Apple Watch bands!!
Might wear it when I get bored of my black one!!!
Made the swap today as I was near an Apple store. Midnight blue it is. Have not tried it on a watch yet but I will soon
You all do know if you go to an Apple store they will let you try any band you want with your watch right?
I was at a store today and tried the SB SS Link bracelet on my SS watch. Sadly the band was too tight. At C$750 for the band and another $70 for the extension kit I passed.
What I really want is a SB SS watch with SB Link bracelet but now you have to buy the SB SS watch with a different band, plus the Link bracelet and for me the extension kit. All in all C$1800 tax in. I opted to save my money.

Received my Orange striped nylon today - love it! Was a little unsure but totally sold on it now.
I took some shots of Pollen on my SS and Aluminum (Gold) Apple watch. The color of this band is not as vibrant compared to the orange so I'm sending it back to Apple.

Digging that Tahoe blue. Definitely returning Pollen and might pick up that one instead.

Darn it! All these posts of the Tahoe Blue made me spend money tonight that I wasn't planning to spend. I like it on the Space Gray. A space gray buckle would match the watch better, but I think it might match the band less well.
Yeah, I agree with you re: the buckle. However, since I hardly ever see it I'm able to get over it. If I (we) didn't, we would have one first party nylon band to choose from, and more money in our pockets.
Where's the fun in that?

I have the Pollen too, and I really like it on the space gray. I feel like everything goes with the ss, so you're in good shape there.
The Midnight Blue Woven Nylon looks amazing
May I ask which color that is below the black Woven Nylon?
Picked up the Orange woven nylon earlier...paired it with my Ceramic AW and I think it looks amazing!!
That. Looks. AMAZING.Picked up the Orange woven nylon earlier...paired it with my Ceramic AW and I think it looks amazing!! View attachment 694571
I do think the 42 is too big looking on your wrist though, but that's my opinion
But hope other Apple Watch Edition owners pick these up and show them off, it looks amazing
I have the pollen with my S0 Space Grey. Love it. I'd recommend checking it out in person, though, as the colors online aren't entirely accurate; it has more of a greenish cast in the promo pics, whereas the yellow in person is much more of a true lemon yellow.
