I've been trying to order/ buy this band for a while now. Anyone know why they are always 'unavailable'?
I want something more feminine to go with my space grey sports.
Would also love recommendations for more feminine third party bands.
 
I'm also waiting for this band to become available seperatley.

The classic buckle is a really nice alternative in the interim.

Been wondering this same thing. Wonder what's going on with the modern buckles, period.
 
If they don't have it by the end of next week I'm just going to buy the SS with pink modern buckle and sell my sports watch.

I've finally found a soft pink modern buckle!

It's on a UK site called CEX. It's cost me £230 so a bit more than if I'd bought it from Apple but it's worth it. Can't wait till it arrives.

Yup! No worries. By the looks of it and how fast China is coming up with Clones, there'll be a clone in no time.
 
IMO the soft pink modern buckle is the perfect band because it goes with everything. I have the SS 38 mm and it looks great no matter what I am wearing. I love it!
 
I'm thinking that this band will never be sold separately just like the space black link bracelet.
 
On eBay today I posted for sale an original Apple-made 38mm SS Soft Pink Leather Modern Buckle Band I won't be using.
I can't figure out how to find the Marketplace on this website.
 
Thank you for marketplace link. Prompt says I don't have permission to view that page. I will explore further later.

Yeah I tried looking up as well but we have no permissions for that sub forum. You might need to contact a mod for them to enable you to post. Perhaps you might need certain amount or clearance like likes or so on to be able to. That's what they do on XD and HOFO. I think.
 
Found this in the Marketplace policy rules:
"The Marketplace forum is visible only to qualified forum members (at least 250 posts and at least 180 days of membership)" It's an old post, but I assume it still applies.

Picked my pink one up from my local store this afternoon. They only had a couple in small. Boxed very like the SS packaging although I can't fit the BSB in the box (first world problems!).
