jump to expanded postwe bought an Apple Watch in February 2022, to motivate us to exercise. I'm sure, given the fact I am Kanbaru Suruga, no further explanation is necessary
Naturally we got a band with it, a stretchy braided woven continuous one with no fastener, in red
but over time it loosened
unfortunately in the meantime Apple stopped selling that particular colour. this is terrible! red is my image colour (except when it's blue-purple, it's complicated). which made us put off replacing it
anyway I realised last week there's no reason to buy an official Apple one
so now, finally I can stop re-entering my apple watch PIN 12 times every time I go to basketball practice!

[instead of alt text: the new one has red plastic instead of metal at the ends, is maybe an inch shorter, and is more vivid red]
βhey aren't you an android userβ
yeah. we keep around an old iphone that wishes it would be put out of its misery already, purely to use the fitness/health/sleep tracking, to enable apple pay, and to be able to backup the watch data. it has no SIM and is powered off 99% the time
