I have both. If I remember I'll snap a pic for you tonight when I get home.Looking for an image so I can compare the difference between Nike Obsidian Mist and Pure Platinum White.
Thank you for posting. I had the same question as OP. Also, do you prefer one over the other? Is the platinum band more “neutral” as to accessorizing for fashion/clothing? Thanks
Honestly, I don't spend a whole lot of time accessorizing my watch to clothing. I usually just grab whatever strap I'm in the mood to wear. I like the idea of my watch standing out so if it clashes I'm totally fine with that. The platinum one I've had for like 3 years so its starting to show its age. It used to be my favorite and I'd wear it like 90% of the time but now its kinda rough. I've cleaned it so many times that its just not that nice anymore. So its been demoted to my cycling band. I wear it when I'm on the road bike or mountain bike.Thank you for posting. I had the same question as OP. Also, do you prefer one over the other?

Thanks for your reply. Your attitude is probably one I should adopt. I spend as much time thinking about the watchband as I do which shirt/suit combo or what tie to wear! Also, maybe it’s time to just pick up a couple new bands and play around.Honestly, I don't spend a whole lot of time accessorizing my watch to clothing.

I still wear the Obsidian one quite often, in fact I'm wearing it right now. But my go to straps these days are the Hasta / Silver, product red, or the midnight that came with my watch. I have a few others that occasionally make it in the rotation too.
I don't buy straps all that often. Usually I wait until I see them at Marshalls and buy them at the reduced price as I feel they are overpriced to begin with. Usually I find Marshalls has the most straps come in around late November for the holiday rush so I'll be on the hunt here pretty soon.
I actually just ordered the Nomad sport band in lunar gray and I think it will become my go to band moving forward. Should be here any day now.Thanks for your reply.
