Love the strap, the case is unnecessary and gross.
Completely ruins the aesthetics.

Completely ruins the aesthetics.
So, I initially thought that cases would defeat the purpose of the watch if you guys wore stainless steel or titanium Apple Watches. But then I realized that I might need to be around dangerous equipment sometimes. The stainless steel can still get scratches if anything very hard or sharp comes in contact with it. So, I decided to wear it only on Tuesdays when I have that CNC machine shop class. After class, when I get home I take off the case, clean it, and then put it back on Monday night. On all other days it’ll be put away with my other bands.
I’ll take a picture of it without the case when I remove it this evening.
GO for it, please! Where is your black woven nylon 38mm?So do I start posting strap of the day again, or not?

Got it. Tomorrow’s band combo will be in tomorrow! I promise I’ll show you the band without the case this evening 😎On its way
You know I’ll be sharing that one.
That is a funky (nice) looking strap.
Love the thick stripes.
Now if only Apple would start to design such straps.
It’s a very “happy” strap.
I completely agree with Sport Bands. Apple should release patterned iPhone cases, in addition to the Black Unity and Pride series. This particular band is one they should have released. I bought it for just 8 quid (approximately $7 USD), and it even came with a case.
By the way, the brand MVMT also offers matching iPhone cases for the iPhone 16 and iPhone 13, 14, and 15. I forgot to take a picture of it at the store, but they didn’t carry any for the Pro models. The cases are around $8 each, but I wish they had them for the iPhone 14 and 15 Pro models.
I got one of these out of interest today from AliExpress, typical squishy silicone lint collector, looks nice though although not as rugged feeling as the genuine Rocky Point.
Nike Sport Band Hasta/Light Silver
Simple and stealthy mode activated with the Black U2.
It looks awesome with the black ocean band! Have you tried it with the black trail loop? I wish there was a black alpine loop.
Not yet, just waiting for a sensible priced one to show up on eBay 👌
Do you still have those bands you used with the AWU1? The original green one would’ve been a perfect match for the black ultra, even the orange trail loop and ocean bands!
I’ve got a decent selection of old bands. There are some good ones that pair with the Black ultra. The U1 bands all look slight out of place though due to the natural titanium hardware.
Yep even the Apple Watch Ultra 2 bands from 2023. But ocean band you only see the buckle on it.
Yeah sadly that bugs me too much. More black hardware bands will come in due course, I’m sure.
