Has anyone seen any photos of a Space Gray AW with the Charcoal Gray Leather Loop? Tempted to order the band because it looks like it’s color may compliment the SG AW pretty well.

Went to an Apple Store a few days ago to look at a Leather Loop in person, and I was told they aren’t carried in store anymore... shucks

Bought a Nike space gray AW3 so it came with the Nike sport band in super dark gray. Also bought the Nike platinum version too for contrast. That’s al I need I think.

The new AW3 with grey sport band pairs really nicely with the space grey aluminum.

I haven't seen a third party grey equivalent.

There's also a few vendors on Amazon that sell 'cocoa' (dark brown), which I also think works well.

Wow, I love the "Vitero" bands!! (Pre-Order for $149 though.) I still have a VERY hard time paying this much for a watch band - especially now when these bands are more expensive than my original 2015 Sport and SS is worth.

Terrible gaps. Cheapens the look. Bad craftsmanship.

I ordered the Tahoe Blue Sport Loop band from Apple. However, it will be going back. I do like it, and it feels good in the hand (giggity), but I also feel it doesn't really pop as much I was hoping for -- the colors are a bit too bleak and dirty. I usually wear light/dark blue or white(ish) shirts and blue jeans. I can only afford a single band at this time, so would appreciate any pictures of the following bands with the SGS watch. Especially side-by-side shots if you own several of these. Also, any suggestions would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I have the old style Midnight Blue Woven Nylon band whereby the whole band, is the one colour as opposed to having the 3 stripes (on mine, the whole band is the colour of the middle stripe in the above pic, but still has the navy edges).

I think it goes really nice with the Apple watch.

does it make you want to vomit, or do you like it
[doublepost=1533499741][/doublepost]Depends. If you are wearing a tux and have a Walther PPK in your pocket it's great. On the tennis court not so m uch.

You know you're replying to a post from over 3 years ago, right? It's from three days after the original release of the very first Apple Watch. The picture happened, BTW, because iMore got hold of most of the watch models and bands then available from Apple (a far smaller set than exists now), and tried every band on every watch.

I just went through this whole thread, thanks everyone for the pics & ideas.

I have 2 Space Gray watches (Series 3 & 4).

I only have Sport Bands to go with it: Black, Nike Black, Red (gen 1), Red Raspberry, White, Ultraviolet).

I'd like to branch out into a Sport Loop (Indigo looks cool) or Space Black Milanese. Talk me into them? :)

I tried both on, but only briefly, when picking up my Series 4 watch.

No need to talk you into anything -- go get a Sport Loop, and you'll start telling everyone how great it is!

Outward facing magnet aside, just get a nice Black Milanese Loop "clone" on AliExpress and test it out. I happen to be wearing one right now with my Space Grey.

the only band I have that I don't like with SG is the brown sport band. all the other colors that I have work great. (lots of pinks, navy, other blues, black, white, greens, red, purple.)

Oh... and I just got the Milanese with my new series 4.... I wouldn't wear the with the SG sport version....
