I figured Watch Band updates could be launched, quietly or to fanfare, at the Chicago event next week. They are not live on Apple's website yet -- at least, for me in Eastern Time just after 9am...

The sport loop and woven nylon bands are amazing. The spring updates look great. But If Apple priced them $20 cheaper they’d sell A LOT more of them.

Website hasn’t been updated yet. I’m guessing because the bands don’t go on sale until the end of month/early April. I can’t see why they’d be announced at that event. Remember it’s not a spring event it’s an education event.
