Hey guys since was unable to find any photos of the metal band in the wild, I went ahead and pulled the trigger -- I LOVE it! Though I need to get it adjusted to my wrist size and it seems to be a fingerprint magnet but it is really good and completes the look of the Slate Grey for office wear. Coming from the standard 5, I was afraid that the Sapphire display may have less contrast but I can't tell the difference indoors or out. The leather band is really nice and thick too and will take some breaking in. The Sapphire came with a black silicone band. Here are some photos with [attempted] same lighting.
