First discount hits Apple’s new Desert Alpine Loop today

Apple unleashed a new slate of colorways alongside Apple Watch Ultra 4 in September, and today we are catching the first discount on the new Desert Alpine Loop. 

Amazon is now offering the 2026 Apple Alpine Loop in the new Desert color treatment with the Black Titanium connectors down at $87.12 shipped. This is the small size for wrists 130 to 160mm.

Now approaching 15% off the regular $99 list, this is the first notable discount and a new Amazon all-time low. It’s certainly not a giant deal, but as you might know, deals on Apple’s official Ultra bands can be hard to come by at times. If you wait long enough, and get lucky, you might catch this band for less in the future, but historically speaking that might not be until 2027 at the earliest. 

I love the Desert colorway here, and especially we the accent weave on the reinforced top loops. This is otherwise the same Alpine Loop that has been a go-to of mine for years now, complete with the corrosion-resistant titanium G-hook size adjustment and the carbon neutral construction:

The Alpine Loop contains 43% recycled content by weight, 100% of manufacturing electricity is covered by clean energy, and 50% or more of all carbon neutral Apple Watch products are shipped without airplanes.
