38mm or 42mm?

[tkermit]

I printed out a scale mockup posted on another thread. 1st one is 42mm, 2nd is 38mm. I have small wrists so can't decide. ImageImage

Definitely the smaller one for you!

38mm or 42mm?

I've come to a conclusion that I'll be purchasing the 38mm, will fit my wrist the best. I may go for the Milanese loop instead of the link bracelet because I love how it looks. Here is the 38mm version that I found online.

Nice pictures. I have a feeling the stainless steel + Milanese loop model is going to be very popular. Personally, because I'm a cheapskate (plus I do actually plan to use it for running & road cycling), I'll probably go for the 38mm Sport model + white Sport band :

If the Rose Gold is under $1200 with the White sports band then that's the one I'm getting. If not, stainless steel space grey with the link bracelet for me, with additional bands (pending price).

38mm?

I'm leaning towards the 38mm because of my small wrists, but I wonder how much (or if) a smaller profile could affect usability.
One would assume it wouldn't degrade functionality, but with screens at these sizes, it seems you'd want maximum real-estate.

So ... I WANT the 42mm, but I think the 38mm might work better for me.

Thank you @Knowimagination for the link!
Printing it now!

i have tiny gurly wrists (duh.... maybe cuz i'm a gurl!) so i pretty much don't have a choice but to get the 38.

38mm stainless steel with milanese band plus white sports band for running.

My current watch is about 38mm, so I'd probably stick with that size if I were to buy an Apple Watch. My wrists aren't tiny, but I don't really like big watches, prefer something smaller and more discrete.

Same here - 5.5" wrists & still wondering whether the 38 will be too big!

To me people who buy several products to try with the intention of keeping one, simply because they are to impatient to wait or lazy to go to the Apple store and try what fits them, are a bit ridiculous! Personally I find it immoral! There is the argument of other people who don't have store near them and I can understand that. But I still wouldn't do it. Usually I have made up my mind about a product by the launch day.... after trying it in store.

very very unlikely (but not impossible)

Apple products are not in store before launch day. Unless you mean you try the product in store on launch day...which is very very unlikely (but not impossible)

Precisely what I meant.

And notice, I didn't say buy the product. I said made up my mind about the product

Which means I can buy it on the launch day if possible, or three months after, whenever possible.

Btw, my local Apple store is a stone drop from my place of work.
