Not crazy at all. I think it's a foolish move on Apple's part (as well as a snub to all the people who chose Space Gray or Space Black watches, not expecting Apple would treat us as second class citizens) - there are a bunch of leather bands I would have bought if Apple had offered them with black lugs. I can deal with having hardware that's a closer match to Space Black, on my Space Gray watch, but bands connecting to a Space Gray watch with shiny silver hardware is an ugly clash - they designed the adapters to seamlessly blend in, and talked early on of how elegant that connection is. So why have two clashing colors? I know it means fewer SKUs, but tough. They decided the path, and they promoted it as being fashionable and pretty... the least they could do is to get the parts to match up. I can deal with the pin or buckle being shiny silver (if it goes with the leather) because it's on the opposite side of the watch, but the lugs/connectors need to be black. The least they could do would be to sell official Apple-labeled adapter parts in black in their stores, so I could swap it myself (not an ideal solution, but better than nothing) - the few 3rd party adapters I tried did not fit as well as the real Apple ones (and an insecure fit leaves one worrying about the safety of the watch).
