Glad I got large then. What do you reckon i can sell a S7 aluminium cellular for?I went to an Apple Store on Sunday and they wouldn't let me just change my size S green alpine loop to a size M. So I just returned the whole watch combo.
Now just using my S7 until Apple online has stock. Been checking non stop the last 2 days but nothing for pick up
Got a tip for us?

I have never owned an aluminium so I won't know. I usually aim for 50 to 60% of the price I paid minimum.
Wow. That looks super nice. What mm size is your Milanese loop? I have an old 42mm from the 1st Apple Watch and am wondering if it will fit and, if so, the lugs of the band will match up as well as your band to the case of the watch.
Check Bestbuy and Target. Both seem to have them off and on in stock with delivery by end of week.I went to an Apple Store on Sunday and they wouldn't let me just change my size S green alpine loop to a size M. So I just returned the whole watch combo.

The active area is 3% larger but has more rounded corners. So yes it it larger, but only by a small amount, not as much as people might be expecting or perceiving (or wishing?), and doesn’t warrant some of the superlatives used to describe the display size.
In comparison, the active area on the S7 is 20% bigger than the S6 and SE, a really significant and noticeable increase.

It's the 42mm version
I'm in Australia so we don't have Bestbuy. Target here doesn't sell Apple stuff.
It's noticeably larger than the S8 when set on the same text size. Not only do Apple's specs show this, side by side comparisons with the text size set the same also show this:
I noticed immediately in comparison to my 45mm SS S7. It is not only wider, but taller. The percentage difference in display area is 3.6%

The screen size being the largest apple offers in the toughest watch apple makes made a good impression on me for sure. But I wasn’t expecting a 49 mm ”older pebble style“ watch. I find the bezel on the Ultra quite svelte considering how robust the design is. Different strokes, different folks I guess.
He's just going around and around in circles about this in multiple threads all over the forum. It's been explained and shown to him many times.
I like the fact that the ultra screen is larger than the series 8 screen.
Does anyone feel the Ultra glass is more prone to looking smudgy than the series watches? There’s something different about the glass, can’t tell what it is.
Its not the standard glass of the other watches. Sapphire glass has different behaviour.
I think we are in violent agreement.
You are basically strenuously saying the same thing as I am
JB were good to their word and have shipped for delivery tomorrow, is the alpine loop band similar material to the nike velcro bands?
Sorry for off topic a bit - but I’m running my first marathon next year. Do you use any particular settings on your AW to make it last? I have a cellular S5, and would like to keep cellular on, listen to music downloaded to the watch via my Beats Fit Pro. I don’t want to bring my iPhone.
You must be living in a very small and superficial world.
Grow the F up bro. 😂
P.S.
You shouldnt bother with woman who judge you on the basis of what watch (or iPad 😉) you are wearing…
It’s slightly different as it’s woven textile. Probably thinner.
