Currys/PC World seem to be clearing out some of the Apple Watch sport and woven bands, unusual to see the Apple bands reduced at all let alone this much.
Collection only it seems but there is some stock (in London I found Leyton and Tottenham Court Road had stock but varies by colour/size). Sizes and colours below:

Brilliant. I am suspecting a design change on the next model next month. :kissing_heart:

Excellent price. I visited my local store and the 42mm black sports band was reduced to £17.97. The black band was not shown as in stock online so it's definitely worth checking the store stock.

Have some heat. Good find. Not right colours for me but cracking deal.

So if they're selling these off have they been informed a new shaped Apple Watch is coming?

For lads in London make sure u call the store or double check in store. There was only one visible online in Currys Tottenham rd and there were like 12 different colors/sizes so I ended up getting 4x 42mm :smile: And site showed only 1 available

Official apple watch bands may be better quality than the cheaper ones you find on eBay and so on, but at the end of the day all it is, is a simple strap, there's nothing special about it to make it the price Apple recommends and their price is not justified in the least bit, I'll never understand why people pay such excessive amounts of cash for something associated with a brand like Apple.
I'd wager 95% of the price you pay for these official Apple bands is pure profit and people seem fine with that.

i bought a non apple replacement strap from amazon and it lasted a matter of weeks. wouldn't recommend a fake one at all.

You cannot fault their marketing strategy though - globally one of the best. Just saying...

I bust my Pebble strap when I came off my bike. Replacement (indistinguishable from original) £7 off eBay. Apple straps start from that price too. Place to go?

Yeh my other half did this and the strap material came away from the fastening, smashed the screen on the floor. Not a good idea!

It's a good deal not replicated elsewhere-have reserved one in Colliers Wood.£50 down to £20 is a good reduction. I could buy a cheaper non brand but I don't want to. Just like I don't want to buy Rola-Cola Thanks to the original poster.

Yes they are expensive but anyone who says they are the same as £7 ones off ebay is a liar.

Shame they don't have the yellow one, I've wanted that for a while. It's a nice "mustard" yellow but all the third party ones are either bright yellow or pastel yellow.

This offer has been going for a few weeks now but some good prices
It's just finding a Currys with stock that's the problem

I get that it's a deal, but it's still a nonsense price for a flipping watch strap, isn't it? And that's coming from an Apple fanboy, sort of.

Im no apple fanboy. Have no apple products (No that i use) but its not just a watch strap! Its an apple watch strap! Surely any apple product commands a higher price.

To be fair, all watch straps from the brand that created the watch tend to be stupidly priced. Just look at what some of the premium 'normal' watch brands want for a little bit of leather.
There are loads of good and cheap 3rd party bands for the Apple Watch if you look around.
