Space Gray: best band combinations?

[twanj]

The ultraviolet looks especially nice. I might have to pick one up.

Thanks. It's my "default" band.

I found a Concrete Sport Band and promptly snatched it up for $24. Brand new in box. I'm a big fan of lighter shades of gray with Space Gray.

Nice! I'd like to get one shade of gray.

I picked up an OG Blue (gen 1) band that looks pretty great too, I'll get some pics. I also ordered a Denim Blue since I wanted a blue band between Blue (which is light) and Blue Horizon (darker).

So I've added a couple more straps and have 2 more on the way. By the way, thanks for sharing the eBay discount @twanj that was helpful

Ocean Blue is the newest, next to Deep Horizon and Concrete (which I've shared before). I also found a pre loved Leather Loop in Midnight Blue.

Blue is one of my absolute favorite colors as you might suspect.

My pleasure!

I love blue too, so far I only have Blue (Gen 1), Blue Horizon, and Denim Blue (on the way).

Sky Blue looks really nice too...along with Blue Orbit/Gamma Blue

Is there anywhere other than searching through the All Apple Bands Ever thread where I can see all of the different colors of blue sport bands, or for that matter, other colors ever released to date? I'd be interested in seeing what Denim Blue and Gen 1 Blue look like if you have a chance

In the first post there are 2 charts/graphics of every band released

I'll take some pics of what I have this weekend.

 

[staggerlee41]

I actually just found that. Sorry for asking the dumb question and making you post the same thing I just found lol.

Pics would be great, thanks man!

 

[twanj]

Shoot, looks like I forgot to show Blue Horizon outside in sunlight?

I got some of the Blue & Blue Denim inside, but not outside yet...sorry about that, been busy. I'll post as soon as I'm able.

Here's what I have so far:

Nike Anthracite/Black
Ultraviolet
Black
Red (Gen 1)
White
Red Raspberry
Blue Horizon
Blue (Gen 1)
Denim Blue

Space Black Milanese Loop
Indigo Sport Loop


I love the Sport Loop and Milanese Loop. I think everyone should have all 3 types!

As far as Sport Bands, I like them all but probably wear White the least.

Ultraviolet is kinda my default. I really like all the Blues, with Denim Blue probably being my fav blue.
I'd still like to get Royal Blue, Nike Platinum/Black, Nike Blue Orbit/Gamma Blue, Rose Red, (Obsidian/Black too maybe), maybe a grey, Cocoa if I find it cheap, curious about an Orange but they seem to all be expensive, Yellow/Pollen/Lemonade could work too

About the only one that looks like it would be bad is Green.

Denim Blue in office lighting vs morning sun

Definitely one of my favorites.

 

[Willie16]

Here's Ultraviolet band in the inside lighting at work and Indigo Sport Loop in the sunlight outside.

(Yes, I have the matching Ultraviolet phone case too

These look great. What type and colour of case is it please?

It's the Apple made silicone(?) case, Ultraviolet color for iPhone X. Came out with the X, so they're not made any more but maybe you can find one online?

It's this model but out of stock here:

[twanj]

There are a couple good pictures of all the bands next to each other. The lighting isn't great, and they're not on a watch, but it gives you a relative idea.

Yellow on Space Gray (out doing some yardwork)

 

[staggerlee41]

Yellow is a really nice look for the watch, I'd have never guessed it. Then again, I don't deviate much from blue/gray/black variations. Perhaps I should.

 

[perezr10]

I think the gray Juuk Vitero looks pretty good with it.

Out of all the combination of colours I have seen on the various threads on here, this combo definitely looks the best.

Nike Black/Hyper Grape on S4 Space Black

Want want want!

I'd like them to make a Sports Band out of that purple, too. (Yes, there's Ultraviolet. No, it's not the same.)

(Oh, I also want a Nike Product Red band - no contrasting color, just red.)

Oh I agree!

Pour some of that hyper grape in a regular band mold!

Ultraviolet is one of my favs too. Here’s a comparison...

That looks awesome and solidifies for me. Just saw the photo of the others. I'm still on the fence with Cerulean. Hyper Grape in both look fantastic!

 

[EdMan]

i have the Hyper Grape on order. I knew I wanted that one the minute I saw it. Purple is my favorite.

With the color of your hat in the avatar, I'd have never guessed! Congrats, looking forward to seeing them.

Lol!!!! I guess that goes without saying. Just ordered the Hyper Grape loop as well. It's got a 3-4 week delivery already!!!! I guess that one is going to be a hit.
