To celebrate this year’s LGBTQ Pride festivities and also to mark the 30th anniversary of the company’s association with Pride, it seems that Apple has decided to create special rainbow bands for the Apple Watch that they handed out to their employees, which also came with a little note.According to the note it reads, “Apple’s first Diversity Network Association, Pride, turns 30 this year and we’re thrilled to celebrate this tremendous milestone with you! As recognition for everyone who registered to participate in a Pride event this year we created something special. This limited-edition band is a symbol of our commitment to equality and we hope you’ll wear it with pride.”
Unfortunately for those who aren’t Apple employees, it seems that Apple has no plans of selling the bands. Instead they were created in limited quantities and were handed out to employees. It is said that they are made out of nylon and they are also rather attractive in terms of design, a nice change of pace from the other Apple Watch bands offered by the company.
Prior to this year, Apple celebrated previous years like in 2015 where they created t-shirts, flags, and banners and passed them out to parade participants.
