It's amazing indeed.
Picked up the Orange woven nylon earlier...paired it with my Ceramic AW and I think it looks amazing!! View attachment 694571
I think the colors in the new tri-color bands are more vibrant IMO.
I think that Apple has been a lot more adventurous with the new range of bands, particularly the nylon bands. It's good to see a move away from just solid colours.
LOVING the new colors! I already received the Berry nylon and am anxiously awaiting the Berry classic buckle as well.
I'll either buy a knock off or look on eBay for the unwanted ones too.
I agree. I like my black nylon and my orange/anthracite nylon bands, but they're not as exciting and fun as these (even with the intensity of the orange.)
I hope we get similar patterns in fall colors / jewel tones come September. I'd love one of these with deep burgundies/purples/greens/blues.
(I also continue to hold out hope that Apple will sell the rainbow band they gave out at Pride/Mardi Gras. *Sigh)
Yeah.. I have never been a fan of Nylon bands but now I'm considering buying a couple.
I don't think adventurous is quite correct. They've decided to copy what has been around on NATO straps for decades and add their lug connector and slightly higher price tag. It's nice they have expanded their range though and given AW owners more choice from an OEM stance.
Could you please add a few links to other tricolor woven NATO straps where each of the three individual colors is also made up of differently colored nylon threads? Thanks in advance!
I could link many, but if you are interested in a browse, check out sites like:
Hodinkee
Chronoworld
Watchgecko
Strapcode
To name a fraction. I hope I've been of help, good luck.

Well, I've certainly seen many straps there, NATO and otherwise, but none that are really similar to the new tricolor Apple nylon bands in the way I described. Pity, but thanks anyway.
You're welcome, although I think I misunderstood your tone in your previous post...
Posted this over on the "Show off your Apple Watch" thread too in the main forum before I found this thread.
My wife and I got the new tri-colored striped bands two weeks ago. The blue/orange for me and the pollen (blue/yellow/green) for her. I normally stick to black/gray but I like the look of these so much I'm thinking about getting the gray/red/yellow one for myself as well.

STOP TRYING TO MAKE ME BUY MORE WATCH BANDS! The Pollen one is growing on me.
I really like the Pollen. Took my a bit to really like the yellow (I thought it was more neon green from the online pics) but I really like the vibrant overall look of the band. Plus it pairs great with the gold WATCH.STOP TRYING TO MAKE ME BUY MORE WATCH BANDS! The Pollen one is growing on me.
I also really like the look of the pollen. It makes me wish my wife had a 42mm instead of the 38 so we could swap.
I... um, I might be wearing a pollen band on my Space Gray Sport now. I'm holding all of you responsible.
