Apple will be selling Olympic edition Apple Watch bands during the Rio Games that are designed to represent the flags of fourteen different countries, reports GQ. Unfortunately, you'll need to go to the Apple Store at VillageMall in Barra da Tijuca, Brazil to purchase one.
The limited edition nylon straps are subtle enough to wear everyday and are a unique way to show your national pride and cheer on your country's athletes. A sprinter for Team USA, Trayvon Bromell, has been spotted with one of the new straps already. Check it out.
The watch bands will be available starting in August for $49. You can see the various designs below...
USA
UK
Netherlands
South Africa
New Zealand
Mexico
Japan
Jamaica
Canada
China
Brazil
Australia
Germany

Mexico and Italy could share a band, Austria and Canadia as well. Holland already has the nice orange one but France could also double as Netherlands. Others?

Is that why their football (soccer) teams are always separate? England, Scotland, N Ireland, etc?

Is there one with pictures of mosquitoes? Maybe printed on a clear band so it looks like you have mosquitoes biting your wrist?
