The best combo out there- when I tried those on at the store I ordered right away!
Here's another pic under a different lighting.

Anyone know of a place that makes a Space Gray Milanese Loop type of band? I'm not really feeling the two-tone.
 
oh don't even say that! that would be horrible and a real loss in revenue for apple!!!!! i think those MUCH BETTER COLORS would really sell!!!
I agree that they could sell really well, and would buy at least two!
 
I like the stainless steel look on the SGS band. I grabbed the leather classic buckle. It's a really nice accent to the all grey look. I don't want it all to blend in together or have the same dark tone.

Can you post a pic. I am actually debating between the classic leather buckle and the leather loop, but haven't seen a classic leather buckle on a Space Grey in the wild yet. Tx

I am looking at these two Skagen bands:

The second on is out of stock at the moment, and is black, but I trust Skagen bands a lot more than I trust no-name Chinese imports. The last think I want to happen is for the band to break at the joint where it attaches to the adapter while I'm wearing it and for my watch to go flying!

I have not pulled the trigger yet on these, if you do let us know how it turns out please.

I think this shows the contrast best, you can still see the entire connector is SS but I feel it look like a small accent on the watch.

I've got a Skagen watch him and I love the milanese band!

Thanks, do either of these require adapters to use on the watch? How much did those typically cost and where can you find them?

Absolutely. I am awaiting adapters from Click: https://www.get-click.com and they are supposed to be shipping at the end of the month. But you can find other adapters on Amazon and eBay. If you get an adapter that doesn't use a standard watch pin then be prepared to have to open up the hooks a little, that's why I'm planning on using the click adapters.
 
I just ordered this from amazon just to see if it's worth keeping. It's easy enough to return things bought on Amazon if it turns out bad.

Found this cool one on eBay. Just like the kind of combo I wanted, a brown leather band that comes with the space grey adapters. Again, it's from the US and the postage is too much to the UK: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=181764022567&globalID=EBAY-GB

If anyone gets it please share pics and thoughts!

I've now wasted a little over $100 on eBay and Amazon.com buying bands. None of them are good quality -- all Chinese knockoffs. Like a dummy, I didn't save the packaging to return them so they will go to the Goodwill. I doubt many patrons there can use Watch bands but I'll get the tax write-off.
