I wouldn't sweat it. I got my wife an Apple Watch series 9 last week, in the color she wanted. But I bought it on Amazon, since it was $100 LESS than the Apple Store, and our Prime card gives us 5% credit on all Amazon purchases. I just looked, and there are still plenty available. And do you really need to buy one of Apple Store's overpriced bands, since there are literally legions of 3rd party bands to choose from, at every price point and materials.

I've been monitoring the stainless steel models as well and very happy to see they're all unavailable but 1.

I also think they're going to discontinue the braided solo loops, or at least offer even less colors. Reason being that one of my colleagues worked at the Apple Store until recently and told me they sold almost none of them, customers like them but are, understandably, turned off as soon as they hear the price.

Based on absolutely nothing more than “new SE is plastic” I had a thought this morning that Apple will really pivot the SE into a Swatch type thing with fun colours and corresponding wacky mix & match bands.

They should just call the next Apple Watch SE the "Apple Watch 5C".
