Looks like Royal Blue to me

Ocean Blue and I love it https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/space-black-owners-thread.1883079/page-32#post-23686462

that said, are there any photos of the Classic Buckle in Sea Blue ? http://www.apple.com/shop/product/MNKW2AM/A/42mm-sea-blue-classic-buckle

Found in a interesting article: https://superphen.co/2016/10/02/comparing-the-three-generations-of-apples-classic-buckle-watch-band/

That's Royal blue, not ocean blue.
To my knowledge it's no longer available in the 42 mm size.

So it's royal blue, ocean blue or just regular vibrant blue?

Royal blue.

Interesting as the poser himself describes the color as 'Blue', but he describes Apple 'Blue' as 'Neon Blue'

I'd say it's definitely royal blue (my personal favourite band colour), which is no longer available: ocean blue is similar but a bit more muted

Thank you all. I asked because a staff at store told me it's midnight blue but I think midnight blue should be much darker. Now I got it, I say royal blue is the one.

Ocean Blue has a hint of grey/grey to it.

Yeah ocean blue is nowhere near that bright. That's royal blue.

All the four bluish sport bands Apple ever released side by side.

From the picture I have to say Royal Blue is the right shade.

If you need 42mm Royal Blue and Apple's discontinued it (and you can't find it anywhere), the FanTEK bands are pretty good:

(and quite inexpensive!!)

Don't forget the 'other' Blue, as well..! Could also add Turquoise in there too - they really do love their blue Sport Bands...

I'd like the ocean blue in 42 MM but all the Apple stores here in Hawaii only have the in 38MM. Midnight Blue is the only "Blue" available here in 42MM.
