Christkind (Santa doesn’t come to Austria) brought me an Ice Blue Ocean Band

Thanks for posting, been wanting to see how that band goes with the original U and I think I like it. Will need to get it before September as I am sure Apple will discontinue it when the new watches are introduced.
Did you get the natural or the black HW? I'm leaning towards the black as a black Ultra is in my future ...

I own two NaTi Ultras so I got it with NaTi Hardware :)
Two reasons for this:
- The black Ultra 2 isn’t my cup of tea anyway
- if it was I would have to buy twice the straps and while I may be a bit of a strap nut, I‘m definitely not spending double the money for collecting them😅

thanks certainly makes the U2 more comfortable on the wrist.
Definitely like trail loops they are more comfortable than sport loops 🔥 I wished they had them for 41/40/new 42mm Apple Watch ⌚️ models. I have a third party ocean band adapted for that.

🔥 but what happened to the stainless steel one that you had? You used to wear it on before.
Long story LOL… I sold my SS for £350 ,bought s24 ultra and galaxy watch ultra but after 3 months I'm starting to miss the f***ing Apple ecosystem.🤣 ! I went Apple store to buy s10 but the consultants convinced me that the Ultra looks better on my wrist…

Welcome back! The grass just really is greener on this side of the fence. 😉

Because the Apple Watch Ultra is really nice for big wrists like yours. Was your Apple Watch Series 7 and 9s in the past the 45 models?
 
No, I had a Series 9 before that and I gave it to my brother, and an SE1 before that
Although I do have a 130mm wrist so I understand the confusion
Looks good on a small wrist. I can wear the 42 perfectly and the 46 does not look too much like a 🧱. Ultra is a no go for me, the size is too big despite the black titanium is a bold choice and I like the trail loop and ocean bands. I wear solo loops size 3, how about you?

Gold stainless steel and a tan classic buckle replica.

My solo loop is a size 0
 
Yes I have a ton of bands and yes,they fit on Ultra
Great! Which ultra and non Apple Watch Ultra bands do you like best?

My solo loop is a size 0
That’s the smallest size btw. I sometimes can fit the size 2 one when I try it on at Apple Store but the 3 is a perfect fit. I never got a solo loop before but I should grab a braided one one day.

Still the AWU is the one you should not upgrade to, if you wear sizes 4 and under in solo loop. You will have to deal with hanging ends on bands that are longer than usual and the tabs sticking out, in addition to seeing it very huge on your wrist.
