I love this thread and seeing all these rare bands! I know It's not all that rare but just was able to order a Gray/Black ceramic pin sport band in good shape for a decent price. I will now be watching out my window for the next week lookng for the mailman😂

I came, I saw, I conquered!!!! 😂

Scored a New, Sealed, Nike Hyper Grape Sport Loop!

I have been searching for a couple years on this one and came across many used ones…

What a find! possibly one of the rarest sealed bands you could hope for.

Be careful with it, many band folk report that, like real grapes, if you break the seal and leave it out, it'll go bad and colors will fade! I can't attest to that as I've only ever had a used one.

Haha! I don’t even want to open it.

I hope you hired a bodyguard for the day, for scratches not thieves. Though aren’t scratches the thieves of our happiness?
I’ve been spending the day on the couch. Not a lot here to scratch, but you’re right.

My own situational awareness is on high alert today, making sure my wrist doesn’t touch anything. I’ll go for a walk later but I’ll be changing into a Milanese for that I think.

Ah, I, for some reason, thought that they were both the bronze-ish Series 4/5. It just goes to show how important lighting is along with how different that color is to the non-Edition gold models! Is that shade 18k or 24k? Or neither?
I think 18k but I have no way to prove it. Lighting is  store lighting so you can blame them. 😅

probably not too good to be true. Over in the UK they've just got a lot of older stock and less people interested than we do in the US, so they're rare to pop up. The same seller has a Medium Cornflower loop still sealed too, they've been sitting in my watch list for a while now.
