Luxury fashion maker Coach has issued new leather Apple Watch bands and colors, offering quirky styles and bright patterns for the spring season, ranging in price from $125 to $150.




Coach is now selling a new Snake Watch Strap in Kelly Green, as well as the Floral Printed Leather Strap in both Kelly Green and Chalk. The new seasonal styles were first spotted by Haute Ecriture.



The floral strap is available in the 38-millimeter size and is priced at $125. The snake strap comes in 42-millimeters and will cost $150.



In addition, Coach also debuted a new Beechwood color for its Tea Rose Applieque Leather Strap ($150), and a Dark Saddle shade for the Rexy Leather Watch ($125).



Coach debuted its first aftermarket Apple Watch bands last June, and it refreshed the colors and styles last fall. Apple has taken a similar approach with its own first-party bands, and most recently debuted new spring colors in late March.

    Why are the flowers on the back? To justify the high price?

    No thanks. I would consider them if they were inverted.

    Beautiful!  Are the flowers of an olive tree, with juniper berries?  Asking for The Martini Cat.

    Because high-end products are perfectionists to the smallest details, sometimes even the ones the customer will never see. You may pass, but lots of people want it.

    That's not perfectionism.  Not even Steve Jobs' dad put decorative touches of the back of the furniture that was more elaborate than the front.

    My 3 year old kid did this exact same thing on our leather sofa. And that was even after we told him how pen marks on leather is just not good.

    I should get him a job at Coach...

    Those flower designs are anything but a small detail. But I feel like you're trying to say that the design holds some extra value that only the customer can appreciate which I can also appreciate.
