AWS2 Edition (Ceramic) Preorder/Order/Delivery Thread

Here are a couple of pictures or the Ceramic with the light blue leather loop, and then the white sports band.
I am not sure how I like the light blue, but it's growing on me. It make the white really stand out.

Think light blue is pretty good. The texture of light blue loop seems to contrast with the watch in a good way. And white on white is so minimalism. I like both.

I am guessing things may look differently in person than in pictures but the brown band really doesn't look good in pictures.

The band is a bit lighter in person, but I think it does look good. I know it's not the traditional combo, but I like them together. It looks like another Watch maker thought so too.

Yeah but they used gold accents so they were also wrong ;) Now aesthetically, although I don't like gold as a color, that specific example you used uses gold as a method to tie together the whiteness of the ceramic and the brown band. They also appear to use a white thread. Your example is a white watch, a silver clasp, black face, off white/cream thread and a brown band which isn't as cohesive as the example you use. Now I'm not doubting that you think it looks good which is all that matters but that doesn't come off in pictures. Apple could also release a band that brings together a more cohesive look.

I know we mentioned this a couple of days ago, but my ceramic AW with SS lugs remind me of this.

White and silver always going well together. Remember iPod classic? White front and silver back. Classic.

Yes, yes yes -- I don't know why I forgot about the early iPods. There's also the silver-and-white iPhone, too, now that you've reminded me about Apple's own products.

I also think a ceramic AW on a white leather strap with steel hardware would look really good.

Here is my Ceramic White with the Apple Black Stainless Link band. Very nice in person. Very, very nice. Really dresses the watch up.

I do definitely like this look especially since the knob on the ceramic is black as well.

I get what your saying and I know my combo isn't perfect. It's hard to find a white Watch face that I like on the AW, so that was always going to be hard to put together. The stitching is a little off the color of the white. Oh well it's not perfect, but it works for me.

The issue is I think I would get it dirty

Nice! Well I don't know whether I want to spend the money on it or not. May just rock what I have, and see what happens.

I think the ceramic would also look nice with the Milanese. I have tried the ceramic on, but hadn't really thought about what bands would go with it until now.
 
My ceramic watch just shipped! Should be here next week. I think Apple made the right choice by getting rid of gold. I'd never want a 15k watch that's outdated in 2-years.

And Ceramic, while I love how it looks; actually offers utility for the extra cost. (4 times harder to scratch and its lighter than the other stainless steal watches)

Yeah I was thinking of getting the black Milanese for it. Think it looks really good.
