I have work I love, people I love, lots of money to spend AND I'm so looking forward to pre ordering a SS 38 mm case with a white sport band at 3 am EDT on the 10th. When I try on the watches later in the day on the 10th, I'll order black modern buckle and Milanese bands.
HOWEVER
The best laid plans of mice and men...

I am definitely more then iPhone excited.
To me this is the first Apple product since I bought the iPhone 3GS that is completely new and will completely change my daily routine and experience during my day.
Sure I have upgraded my iPhone, iMac, Macbook and iPad but I pretty much always had an older model or something similar that filled the void.
I have never had a smart-watch and really can't wait for the Apple Watch.
It really does feel like Christmas as a kid.

A little difficult to see because of the glare, but they put up Watch banners up at my local store.
Getting pumped.

Cant wait to purchase the Apple sport in blue or black.
If Apple history repeats itself, the upcoming new iPhone will be a lot better. For example iPhone 4 vs 4S was a big improvement. Same held true from 5 to 5S. At work there's hundreds of us with the latest iPhones. This fact of S model superiority is very well known. Therefore everyone I know will buy the new model. Apple knows this to and milks it for all its worth. A very clever company indeed.
I'm very excited to pick up an 
Watch Sport in space grey with black and green bands.
I've been wanting a "smart" watch for a while now, I even backed the original pebble (but didn't pay enough to actually get the watch). I've had quite a bit of android phones with my latest being a 2014 Moto X. While I had that phone, I almost picked up a Moto 360 but a few things turned me off: the "flat tire" on the display and the screen actually was lower res and dimmer in person than the press photos showed. I wasn't impressed with the screen at all.
I also wanted a Sony SmartWatch 3, mainly due to it having onboard GPS, but overall, I don't think the watch is very good looking.
All in all, I love the look of thewatch as well as what it will bring with sport/fitness tracking, notifications, and quick replies to said notifications. I think it's beautiful and I love the attention to detail that Apple brings to its devices. Will go quite well with my iPhone 6

More than exited
I got really exited, and besides I need some for my business, for myself I will go for the sportswatch .
In general, I believe Apple will sell more watches this year than estimated and I will see many of those who say right now they don't buy one, getting one finally

Yeah i am looking forward to it. I always get a new iPhone and iPad on release day and this will be no different.
Can't wait. I get far too many bs notifications at work and I just want to be able to glance and see whether a notification is worth my time. Without my boss seeing me check my phone every 2 minutes.
Excited? Not really. I'm the type of guy that doesn't get excited or impressed very easily. I'm just gonna get up at 3am on 4/10 to order 2 watches and an extra band, and maybe take off from work on 4/24 and sit outside of my front door, waiting for UPS
Initially I was super excited,but then the prices came and it was like a punch in the stomach. Because all along I loved the SS Apple watch. But the prices were not even close to what I was thinking.
Then after thinking about it....I'll get it. I do love the features and the look of it.
I've decided on two SS with the classic black leather bands. One 42mm and one 38mm for the fiancee. I'll pre-order on 4/10/15 at 12:01am
I'm not totally jumping up and down just yet,but maybe closer to launch.

Trying to figure out if that's sarcasm or not!
I'm curious to see it and try it on. Probably won't buy though.
I see a lot of these 'I can check notifications and not offend my boss/spouse/friends/etc.'
I share most of the excitement about the watch, but this one eludes me. How is repeatedly looking at your watch less rude than looking at your phone? Everyone will know what you are doing... No one is being fooled.
Being able to try it on and play with it will ease the pain of waiting until the 24th
I'm very excited. I missed out on the first gen iPad and iPhone (people can say whatever they want about the difference between a first gen and second gen) but this is the first time i'm getting an apple product that's entering a completely new category. I've been wearing watched daily for quite a few years now, I have a nice little collection of different styles and all. Combining Apple and my love for watched is going to be amazing.
I'm so excited, everything reminds me of the watch, which makes me feel giddy and excited. Even my MacBok Air does.
I'm excited! I was going to settle for the Sport but I'm willing to buy the 42mm SS with a sport band and buy the classic buckle band before I even buy the Watch. I've decided that I'm worth it it and was going to get a rMBP but the watch will get more use right now. No use in skimping on the finer things since I'm worth it and work hard and make good money. Will get a MacBook toward the end of the year. Will get the Nomad Pod and their Stand beforehand too. I'm going to the Apple Store with my classic buckle when I go pick up my SS. Maybe in June for me. Hope someone makes a carrying case or box for storing multiple bands because I will get Milanese And brown leather loop later on to go with other things. I can't wait to read reviews and watch all the YouTube video reviews on this thing.
