Apple has gifted a limited edition Pride 2016 Apple Watch band to employees who registered to participate in a Pride event this year.
Apple CEO Tim Cook posted a photo from the LGBT Pride parade in San Francisco on Twitter saying, "Happy Pride to everyone who turned out this weekend to celebrate! #applepride #pride2016"
The nylon Apple Watch band features rainbow colors and came with a note that reads...
Apple's first Diversity Network Association, Pride, turns 30 this year and we're thrilled to celebrate this tremendous milestone with you! As recognition for everyone who registered to participate in a Pride event this year we created something special.
This limited-edition band is a symbol of our commitment to equality and we hope you'll wear it with pride.
Check out the band in the photo below posted to reddit by Sakusuhon.

I don't have a problem with Tim Cook being gay or whatever, he's free to do whatever the he wants. My problem is that he uses Apple to promote "pride." Keep Apple stuff separate from the CEO's personal agenda.

You do realize other big companies are doing the same to. They're just trying to show how equal everyone is.

If it's celebrating 30 years of DIVERSITY why just focus on gay pride? There are so many other bands you could make and sell along with this one and not just limit it to pride. It seems more like an agenda than trying to be diverse in my opinion. We have a huge racism issue, why not make a band for that too?!? Diversity isn't just about lifestyle it's about your origin and the equality of life around this green globe.

Dam the one on Amazon looks better than what Apple is selling and cheaper in price.
