Yeah. That black is like a Yeti. I see it in the case, but is it real???
I tried the medium in the navy and in the brown. I LOVED them.
I loved the red one on the Edition. I wish that thing came in stainless. All the pink ones are super small. I've been in more than one store and none had a pink that would fit me. That gray pink on the Edition fit like a charm, though. LOL.
Brown!
Love that brown one. looks great on you too.
You got the 12-26 of May for your ship date? These dates are so random. There's no logic to them at all. Lol. I've stopped tying to figure out a pattern. I'm 5/13-5/27. Lol
I've got 12-25 May shipping to Australia...
Do you have any other pictures of the bottom side showing the buckle (black or any other color)? Was the buckle a little big in person or was it a nice fashionable big? What size is your wrist again? Sorry for all the questions....just trying to find out all I can until mine ships,lol.

Nope. I didn't take any of the bottom.
My wrist is right about 155mm. Unless a person had wrists so tiny they'd barely fit the small band without it being too large, I cannot imagine the buckle would appear big.
The buckle is smaller in person than Apple's renderings. It's not quite so thick, I guess you'd say?
I will tell you that the buckle seems more substantial on the gold watchbands than on the SS ones. Still, it's really attractive on the wrist.
Ha, I haven't read all the other threads to keep up with everyone. I see now. Then I guess we will just continue to wait.
I'm a man and I ordered the Black Modern Buckle. To me it was the most comfortable and had the best feeling leather. I have a 168mm wrist by the way.

Do you find the buckle to be too large of a look on a man? Just curious as I do want this band eventually and I like the black modern buckle.
I personally like the large look. The black one looks the most professional out of all of the watch bands in my opinion. The best way to make a decision would be to try them on as before my try-on appointment I was dead set on the leather loop but that one actually became my least favorite.
Good Luck

I tried on the 38mm SS watch with the small modern buckle band in the store and the fit is great. My wrist is 134mm. The buckle is not too big, thick or heavy. I was afraid that even the 38mm watch would look too big on my wrist, but the fit is fine and very flattering. I think the band is thinner and more graceful than some and probably why it is only available for the 38mm size. It would probably not appeal to most guys. My only concern is the color. I'm afraid the soft pink will get soiled and I've ordered the same watch with a black band. I apparently have plenty of time to make up my mind on color.

Looks good! Hope my wife likes that brown once it FINALLY ships to us.
On the bright side, once they ship, if she's not into brown, I'll probably be easy to swap for another color.
Sizing is accurate according to my testing with my wife at the store, tape measures and all.
Did you happen to have a picture of the bottom side? The buckle? Also,what size band was that? Did you have a lot of room left to
Adjust?
