Went in around noon, and asked if they had watch bands in yet. The person helping me wasn't sure so they asked the manager who said they had gotten a shipment last night but weren't sure if they were on the floor yet or where they'd be; we looked around and saw an employee putting them out on the shelf! Talk about perfect timing.
Got a tip for us?

Definitely the white. It's heavier, and feels more supple and higher quality. I also don't have to worry as much about that quality issue where the black sports band starts peeling etc
Very nice, I'm thinking about getting a Space Grey sport and putting a blue leather loop on it and keeping the black sports band for my steel watch
The leather loops look good on the Space Gray... I found a pic of the blue leather loop on a SG so you can see it

Oakbrook does? I was there wednesday and only saw the sports. I'd love to go back tomorrow for a leather or milanese.
Have they got any link bracelets? I got my white sport band from Michigan avenue apple store, they only have sport band in stock.
Thanks for the tip. I asked one guy at the door and he told me no. I said I have numerous sources telling me otherwise, can you please ask somebody else and another enthusiastic gentleman came and helped me out.
That's 1 white and 1 blue sports band, and a medium black leather loop for me this week. Snaggin' my milanese when I see one, and I'm done.
Right now they have a 38mm Milanese loop, I'm looking for a 42mm
The guy at the door is not friendly at all, he's kind of a jerk and super rude tbh
We must have been there at the same time. I picked up a band too for my gf
You didn't happen to see Milanese on the shelf did you? They said they had it when i called but then when i went there, they were 'sold out'
Did u get one ??? I was gonna go there ....
I was gonna go there at 6:30 but was too lazy..I'm in a Glenview

Went to Old Orchard Friday around 6:30pm and picked up a 42mm white sport band. Asked for a 42mm Milanese loop and they said they only had a few colors of the sport bands available in both sizes. Only saw black, white, and blue in both sizes while I was there.
