Blue or Space Gray, halp me out
If you have been there done that with space gray and want to change things up.... and if you like blue, I’d go with blue! If you don’t like it, you have a 14 day return policy to exchange it with something else.
Got a tip for us?

I got the Solo loop delivered today and even though it is (slightly) the wrong size, I can already tell I am going to like it a lot more than the sports band or sport loop. It is very comfortable and I believe it will allow you to wear it much longer, without feeling like you need to give your wrist a break from a strap for a while.

Deep navy blue sport loop. Think that would fit the Space Grey?? (The image is from a user from the reddit with a blue S6)
Mine was just a tad too loose (probably 1/4” or just under). The band didn’t slide on my wrist but, the watch face did not sit snug on my wrist and I could easily raise it off my wrist. With constant use, I could see this getting worse. I ordered the size 6 which should be here next week. I will compare it to the size 7 and see goes it goes before returning.
I ordered a size 9! Hope I got it right as I don't have another to swap it out for whilst I exchange.
Moving forward, I think Apple will implement a better sizing guide system as their paper cut out scenario doesn’t seem to work very well, compared to hands on.
I hope you have better luck than me with the first band.
Me too. I'll let you know on Wednesday (hopefully).
Remains to be seen. I'm curious about the SS gold. I have a Series 5 SS silver that I had gold plated, but they did a bad job and I polished it off. If this new gold version looks similar to that and more like real yellow gold and not the bronze "gold" of the last two versions, then yeah, I'd get it. Otherwise, no. Not too much of a jump to interest me.
Ordered Titanium silver with Baltic Blue Leather Link. Only ever had 1 apple watch before, a series 2. Won't arrive until 17th November though.
The watch band is likely pushing the date out. Consider buying with a basic sport band or loop then buying the leather link later on. Especially if you think there will be times you'd wear something other than the leather band, such as when working out.
The new leather bands seem to be delayed. You can get it much faster with a different band and buy the leather later.
That's a good idea. So I've redone the order. I wanted a brown leather strap anyway. My wrist is 180mm. I hope the smaller strap size works. Anyway, now arriving earlier - 19th October

So I gave in and went to an Apple store yesterday and bought a stainless, would have liked Titanium but they don’t carry them in store, online only. Was disappointed they have no leather link straps so have had to order one separately.
Loving the AOD coming from a S4, makes it feel more like a proper watch being able to glance at he screen.

I finally went from Silver SS to the Gold SS because it looks like real yellow gold and not that copper color. I ordered from ATT so I have to wait until the first week of October for it to arrive but I'm excited. I've found some excellent stainless steel two toned linked bands to wear with it. (I had been wearing an Apple Silver Link band since series 0 and I have grown tired of it after 5 years).
That is a big difference in bling.
The Death Star always makes you wait, except when paying their bill. Lol
They sell them in some stores. I was able to pick one up in the Boston flagship store.
There’s really no such thing as a ‘flag ship’ stores with Apple. What Apple does, if they sell the titanium models in stores, it’s actually based more on foot traffic in larger cities. For example, three of the Apple Store is my region sell the titanium Apple Watch, but the mall traffic stores only sell the aluminum Model, and some stainless.
All you lucky people who have already received your series 6, does the fast(er) charging require a newer/different charging puck?
I’m French and i currently have a S0 since the launch. It’s time for upgrade.
I’m hesitating between the SE GPS Space grey 44mm (329€) and the S5 44mm GPS space grey in Amazon (promo 409€).
Is the ECG and the always on display a game changer ? I can have the SE 44mm Cellular version for 359€ thanks to a mobile network operator
