Apple will be releasing special edition Watchbands to celebrate the Summer Olympics. But you don't need to travel to the games to obtain one. Apple has created a 22-piece Apple Watch International Collection of Sport Loops to cheer on your team's pursuit of Tokyo medals. To no one's surprise there's an American band (below), but you can also find straps from countries such as Australia, Greece, South Africa, Japan, and South Africa.You don't need to create a watch face from scratch. App Clips is used to allow you to download the matching Stripes faces. If you're interested in supporting another country, you can download them from Apple's site.AppleApple sells the International Collection bands for $49 and they are available in sizes 40mm and 44mm. Apple describes them as "limited-edition", although it doesn't specify how long they will be available (we have asked for clarification). If you are interested, it is safe to assume that you will want to order yours soon. You have a rare opportunity to purchase an Apple Watch band with a nation-themed design without paying a premium on an auction site.
