The ALPINE LOOP: A STATEMENT and COMPLIMENT to my beloved APPLE WATCH ULTRA

I treated myself recently to two more watchbands (one making a statement and the other providing the perfect compliment) for my beloved Apple Watch Ultra; the Orange Alpine Loop and the Green Alpine Loop. Didn't even go to the Apple Store for them. I had them delivered to my house!

NOTE: Some times it's good to be me!

In this short blog post I will...

1. Explain why I bought these bands

2. Talk about what I like about them

Why I bought them...

Variety. I like to have choices. Adding these two bands to my collection gives me 4 bands to choose from. Availability. When the watch came out in September bands were in limited supply. Especially the the Orange Alpine Loop; which has me written all over it!

What I'm liking about them...

The Orange Alpine Loop

I started with wearing the Orange Alpine Loop for a full day. It took a minute to figure out how to put it on. After reading the directions that came with the band it was relatively easy to get it on my wrist. Initial thoughts; it feels light on the wrist. It's comfortable. It's very bright; makes a statement. I love how the color of the band elevates the existing orange elements of the watch including the Action Button, the ring on the Digital Crown, as well as the hour and minute hands and the ring within the Waypoint watch face. As you can see in the picture below, it's everything I was hoping for.

Making a very nice statement!

The Green Alpine Loop

I switched to the Green Alpine Loop on the second day. I'm a big fan of the color green. Just like the Orange Alpine Loop elevates the existing orange elements found on the watch, the contrasting Green Alpine Loop is a great compliment to those elements providing space for the orange to stand out nicely. I also like how the Green Alpine Loop compliments the multi-colored Waypoint watch face. As you can see in the picture below, the two were made for each other!

Watch and band: A match made in heaven!

Final Thoughts

I'm really glad I got both of these bands and am happy to be adding them to my daily rotation.
