Apple has announced the upcoming availability of a new Pride watch band, watch face, and wallpaper. The company says the collection will be available at the end of May.
Apple is introducing a new Apple Watch Pride Edition Braided Solo Loop, available to order starting May 22, along with a matching watch face and dynamic iOS and iPadOS wallpapers, available in an upcoming software update. For the first time, the Pride watch face and wallpapers can be customized to showcase a spectrum of colors representing the vibrancy and diversity of LGBTQ+ communities.
The watch band is a Braided Solo Loop with an array of colors including pink, light blue, white, black, and brown. There's also a laser-etched lug that reads "PRIDE 2024."
