If you can afford the SS then go for that one
Sports doesn't look great and if you're going to wear the watch for at least a year then SS is worth it
I ordered the SG 38 BSB 30 mins after it went on pre sale. Didn't think it would arrive and everyone was raving about the SS and how fast the black classic band was shipping so I ordered to see which shipped first. To my surprise they arrived one day apart. I love my space grey sport. Love the all dark look and it's very comfortable. Now the leather band on the classic buckle SS looks very cheap and it is very stiff. I don't like it at all and I don't feel it's worth all the extra money so I'm sending it back and just getting more sports bands to change up the look of the space grey sport.
To each his own.
PS. I would probably love the SS space black watch but no no no I won't spend the extra money. I also love the look of the soft pink band. Ahhhhhhhhhhh

Update... ordered yesterday around 4 pm (Eastern). Sometime before 2 am it changed to Prepared for Shipping! (I know this because I woke up and checked, ha!) I just keep waiting for that magical update to SHIPPED... hopefully any minute now!
I tried using my SS classic in the gym and it just didn't feel right, I was too scared if the watch gets scratched, and I felt too protective of it, I think I'll stick with sport and return this one.
Sold my silver sport with blue band and ordered the SS classic buckle on Thursday and it came Tuesday.
Honestly the sport doesn't even deserve to be called an Apple Watch as the SS is SOOO much better of a product. Even the box is better. Plus, you get a metal charger not a plastic one. The band is very comfortable. The leather doesn't look luxury too me, but I guess that's the style they were going with.
Sadly, my temp job ended unexpectedly, so I couldn't justify keeping a $700 watch when I have no job. Maybe when I'm working again I'll re-order.
"Temp Job Ended" - enough said....
