Was in a BMW dealership yesterday and two sales guys spotted mine on my wrist and came over. One had a alum gray with bsb, the other a stainless with buckle. Both liked them.
Got a tip for us?

This new forum style is killing me. You can't see when someone posting is actually the thread starter, it used to be highlighted.

was at Disney last night and I saw 4 by 8pm, and then I stopped looking for them, first time I saw any (outside of the store)
Approached all of the owners and chatted for a minute or less, everyone seemed to love theirs!

A guy waiting at the Deli in Kroger here in Nashville had a 42mm silver sport with blue band. The band gave it away so I asked how he was liking it. He only had it a week...so I bragged how I had mine since launch haha. Kind of felt like we were in a special club or something
I haven't seen anybody with one where I live, which is a college town in central IL. But today I was in downtown Chicago for the day, and I saw a few people with them at Portillo's, a few at the NMA Store of course (not counting employees), and one woman who walked past me while I was sitting at Millennium Park. They seemed to all be sport versions with various sport band colors, from what I could tell.
Like the vultures they descend, Sixth form. Everybody knows what it is, yet nobody else has one. But they all ask me what I think of my "iWatch" to which I usually generate a sarcastic reply of "Never heard of it" or "My Apple Watch? Yes it is great.". The most tormenting bit was around April 21st when I was sporting the 6th Gen Nano a small cult thought it was the proper watch. Not fun when you are stalking the orders page.
No, I've not seen anyone else wearing an Apple Watch. I'm really surprised by that because I live in Berlin (a big city with a lot of tech companies) and I usually see people with new iPhones as soon as they come out. I guess the watches are easier to cover up and miss.
Not counting Apple Store employees, finally saw an apple watch in the wild, a chick was walking by me on her way to the gym and I saw it on her wrist. Didn't have time to say anything as we were in the middle of the road, but that would be my first spotting in the wild.
Once, first time was yesterday. Friend had her baby Sat., doctor came in and I immediately noticed what looked like the 42MM SS with white sports band. (It did compliment his white coat..heheh)
I'll probably notice it more since it's much warmer out - long sleeves and jackets are not hiding the watches as much. We'll see.

I actually noticed someone yesterday on the tube, wearing some Kind of Pebble watch 
Weird how you start to look at peoples watches once you have your own Beauty!
But i quite like that you can be very discrete with it. I, for instance, wear Long sleeved Shirts to work, so you wouldn't notice it at all until i'd use it. And i prefer it that way. Of course this will not work with casual wear in the upcomming summer, but i hope the Apple Watch will become something 'normal' in the next weeks and won't draw too much Attention. Especially going through the shady parts of town at night

finally seen another watch in the wild!!
Checked into my hotel this morning and there was a guy with a 42mm White Sport. Can't believe it's taken this long for me to see another one.
Which makes me wonder...does anyone wear their clothes differently to either hide or show their watch compared to when they didn't have one?

Mine is the only one I've seen. I think three people have noticed it.
Do I wear my clothes differently with the watch? lol I guess so, I mean if I have a long sleeve shirt on I will pull up the cuff over the watch so I can see it.. if that's what you mean.

I don't consciously hide my watch, but most of my long-sleeve shirts do cover the watch unless I bring my arm up to take a look at the watch. So I'm guessing if someone is passing by on the street, they wouldn't notice I'm wearing a watch.
And the only other person I've seen wearing an Apple watch is an Apple Store sales representative.
I seen 5 or 6 at Disneyland 3 weeks ago,....then 1 again (last weekend) at Disneyland.
A few wh sports, a couple both had SS (38 & 42) either with blk sport band/classic...also a guy with a 42 with 3rd party band.
2nd DLand trip, 1 white sport (I wasn't looking as much this trip...lol)
....and YES, I was rockin' my Mickey watch face!
