@roddenshaw do you happen to have a link to that band it looks amazing!

It looks like this one: https://www.amazon.com/HuanlongTM-C...sr=8-9&keywords=Apple+Watch+ceramic+band+38mm


To add, as a Space Black SS owner, it pains me that Apple thinks of this color as an afterthought, since they have FAR more options for the Stainless Steel color than the Space Black. My next watch will be a Stainless Steel for sure, since I have yet to find a band (outside of Apple's) that matches the Space Black color like it should. Not even clockwork synergy's PVD Black is an accurate color match (but it's pretty close).

I just ordered this after trying it out in the Apple Store last night. Damn it's a goodlooking band.

I recieved it today from Apple. Damn it's goodlooking. I highly recommend it if you can cough up the money for it.

SBSS is the most versatile colour and will pair with any colour easily. Thats why I picked it over the gold.

This is SBSS with the Hermes sports band

This. After receiving my SBSS 44mm watch, I took a drive out to the Apple store to look at the gold and SS options. While I like those watches I just kept noticing how some bands really "pop" with the SBSS I have. I've had a series 2 SS 42 for over a year and nearly all of the bands were just meh.

The Project Red Sport band, Cape Cod Blue Sport Loop, black Sport Loop, and leather options all look really great with my new watch. In hindsight I wish I'd have taken a few pics of the band combinations I tried on at the store for this thread, but I especially liked the Cape Cod Blue Sport Loop!

I wear the link bracelet for everything except running. I keep thinking of selling it because it feels silly to own a band that's worth almost as much as the Watch (and I got a fair enough price on it, I'd at least break even) but then... it just makes the Watch feel so much more like jewelry. Thinking of using the SB Link Bracelet for my wedding watch.

It makes the Watch feel more luxurious. More than an activitytracker. Jewelry, yes. Ill keep mine for a long time. :) I feel like im worth it, kinda?

I wanted bands that looked somewhat understated, so I'm using the Apple black sports band, the Nomad gray modern leather strap, and a knock-off space black link bracelet from ebay. All look great with the space black SS.

Received my SBSS Link Bracelet today & it complements my SBSS Series 4 nicely. I have small wrists, so ended up removing most of the removable links. Surprised by how light The bracelet feels when wearing it.

I am primarily using sport loops on mine. I have the midnight fog and Tahoe blue, and honestly just rotate the two after a run. They are so comfortable. I am probably going to pick up a storm gray loop. I have some sport bands, but I don't find them as comfortable as the loops.

I have been use a hermes style band I purchased from ebay.

...personally, I don't like the way these fake bands show too much of the lug, where the straps actually join - notice how the leather strap, even though it sits as far right as possible, still shows the lug to the left (where the arrow is pointing!!) :

...maybe its my OCD but it makes the watch look off centre to the starp!!
