Anyone at High School/College own the Apple Watch?

Im also a college student major in computer science. Im still waiting for my watch (ready to ship in june). I plan to wear mine to school but I'm also a little worried about people who are curious coming up to me and asking stuff about it.
I'm the only one with one at my high school. Just pretend it's a normal watch and most people won't notice

will do
That looks great, I love how the SS looks but I think it looks a little too fancy/dressy for me. Thats why I went with a space grey instead, plus the $700 price tag wasn't too appealing.
Funny story, the first day I got the watch, I took two quizzes in class. Neither of my professors noticed nor asked me to remove the watch. No joke, I even checked my text messages during one of the quizzes when I got notified.
Judgemental much?
No, they aren't spoiled at all.
I am sure the parents and school nurse would be happy to not have the need for notifications and reminders for medication.
550 for the 38 but its like 600 with tax

True, but its just like fourth graders have iPhone 6. they don't need that but again this is the technology evolution
Im in nursing school right now in college and its finals week. Like others have said on here don't be flashy showing it off. Watch is distinct enough to be notice by people who know what it is. Let them envy on your hard working ethics.
For me I go to school full time and work two jobs full time. You're damn right I deserve to buy what makes me happy and wear it. If you've seen my Ultimate Sizing Guide for Watch By An Actual Stylist, you'll know that I'm a fashion consultant; and in the fashion world watches are very much a status symbol. It's my status for "I work hard while I study hard" haha!
A few students have pointed it out, and I just kindly reply "It is, and I love it" If they inquire more on it, I kindly show a bit what it can do.
My advice: Have good student ethics and put your watch on DND and Silent when your taking test or your in an important lecture.
(Your watch mirrors and sets your phone to DND and Silent if you change it on your watch, vice versa)
If you're in college don't waste your parents money, your own money or student loans on classes that your goofing off with your watch.
Oh... 38mm SS BSB... for now.
I also like writing papers... Thus my long posts.

My parents got me this for my 15th birthday too. I wore it, didn't draw much attention but when i was in spanish my friends were playing around with it and pressed the find my phone button and teacher almost got mad. hehehehe
Still waiting on my SS WSB and I'm in college. I do wear equivalent priced Tissot's to school every day. Most people don't wear a watch to school, and the few that do wear cheapies.
