At some point, I'm sure I'll buy a black strap for my Watch Sport instead of wearing a white one all the time. Where I plan to buy it will more than likely be from a nearby Apple Store.

I'm the exact opposite, will want a white one soon. Do we know specifics about in store availability yet? Should bands be available sooner than the actual watches? I'm wondering if I'm quicker ordering one online (shippin in "may") or waiting for them to arrive in store?

I am waiting on a blue sport band and might get a black one later. I need to see the 3rd party ones and hear reviews before I get one.

I'll stick to black mostly. Maybe a 3rd party metal link if the price is right.

My 38mm SS came with the white sport band and since the very end of April I have ordered a black sports band and a Milanese. Apple gives a (broad) May delivery. I check the order status daily but alas :(

I have the white sports watch. I've also ordered the Milanese loop and pink sports band. If the modern pink buckle becomes available I'll order one of those too.

I bought the white silicone with my sport and added a Milanese..
But I've always loved a two-tone band, like the one on my Coach that I used to wear.
So, I just picked up a set of lugs from Amazon (Chinese knock off, I'm sure) and attached a nice two-tone band... I really love the look!!!!

I've been a big watch guy and an avid apple fan for a long time. Im still waiting for my Apple watch (was ticked I wasn't part of the first order). I noticed today that the website I buy all my watch bands, Bandrbands.com has just started carrying Apple Watch Bands. Gonna place my order this week for some of the bands. Also haven't been able to find velcro bands on the aftermarket so thats definitely an upside. These are what they look like pretty cool:AppleWatchBandBlackStrap.2.jpg
