Apple to Launch Apple Watch ‘Pride’ Edition and New Bands as Soon as This Week
Over the last four years, Apple has debuted new Apple Watch Pride bands in the month of May, and last year on May 25 the company launched a “Pride Edition” Braided Solo Loop and Nike Sport Loop Apple Watch band, alongside a new Pride watch face.
This year, however, Apple could add something new to the mix by unveiling an actual “Pride version” of its latest Apple Watch alongside the new bands, assuming Gurman’s choice of words is accurate.
New Pride version of the Apple Watch should be launching fairly imminently. Marketing materials and updated Watch tables have started arriving at retail stores — for placement next week. Actual new bands should start arriving later this week.

According to the journalist’s sources, updated marketing materials have already been sent to Apple’s retail stores including images of the new Pride edition Apple Watch, and they’ll be followed by new Pride bands, although they are set to arrive later this week.
In the meantime, Apple’s existing Pride variants of its Braided Solo Loop and Nike Sport Loop can still be found exclusively on Apple’s online store.
