Watched a Bradley wiggins documentary on Sky the other day and noticed he had one, with what looked the leather loop. Pizza express manager in the one we were in last Thursday had the same.
 
Here in Manila Philippines, i've seen 4 in total (watch hasn't been released here) 3 SS and 1 SGS
 
I have yet to see one in the wild. i live in South Florida and its odd I have not seen one yet.
 
I've been seeing a lot more here lately in the LA area; in fact, I went into whole foods for 5 mins to grab something and saw 3 watches. Also have seen a couple when walking around in more crowded areas
 
Looking at a space grey sport right now while waiting for my breakfast sandwich. Haven't even started my workday yet.
 
Finally see one other then myself. Tim Horton's Drive Thru Brampton Ontario Canada, Was a 42mm sport with Third Party Red Loop.

Finally saw another apple watch :p sport model after all this time, Apple products are very rare here only iPhone around; people are shocked when they ask the price of my link bracelet model they just don't expect someone to pay that much for a accessory.
 
I have only ever seen 2 Apple Watches. Mine and a coworker's. He got his first, I only noticed it because he was showing it to someone else. After seeing his, I ordered mine since not having seen one in person was the main thing holding me back. (There isn't an Apple Store anywhere near me.)

I doubt I would notice an Apple Watch on some random stranger in public unless they are using it for Apple Pay in front of my at the grocery story.
 
It doesn't really stand out much, which is a good thing, you almost have to be on the lookout for it to really notice it

Lately I've been seeing more and more of them out in the wild. It's just been on sale in my country for a couple of weeks so it's quite surprising for me to already be able to count so many early adopters. Everyone I see wearing one also seems to be hyper aware of other people's wrist. It's happened quite a few times that when I spot another AW wearer we give each other the 'nod', as in: We're the same. Or maybe we aren't and I'm just weirding people out.
 
I've seen some folks with the apple watch, not including myself :p

Mostly on the subway as I commute into work.
 
Haven't seen another one in the wild yet. I've used Passbook on it quite a bit whilst out and about, usually to the comment that it's the first one that whoever is serving me has seen. Not sure quite how well they've been received in the UK yet.

Saw an older woman with a Rose Gold 38MM Watch Edition, with the White Sports Strap. She was sitting in front of me in the middle of the coach section on a budget flight.
 
Saw my first one today while at dinner. Looked pretty cool. Not sure the size though.
 
I've now seen about 15 as I start to look. Went to the mall of America and there were so many people looking at and trying on watches. Saw about 5 sold in 10 minutes.
