100% agree. Once you see it in person, its amazing looking. For sure does not look like plastic.

That's what happened in my case.
I was in the store and I asked just to see it.
I was handed to me with a slew of bands.
As I was swapping out bands I was thinking:
This color will be great for going out to dinner.
This would go great with this shirt and suit.
Damn this looks summery.
This will go great with this shirt.
And so on.

The Nike bands looked great for water, biking or water activities.

One band isn't going to cut it

Which band did you like for suite and tie, and dress wear?
 
Which band did you like for suite and tie, and dress wear?
For an interview or meeting the Black Milanese or black link.
The black link would be perfect for a black tie evening.
The black leather also looked sharp.

For a suit wearing event I would try to match the tie, shirt and band.

I am looking forward to wearing my orange polo, ceramic with an orange sports band (amazon).

Let me know which sport band get on amazon. I have been reluctant to buy one from amazon.

Yeah I have the Milanese loop for mine. Really really like the link, but it's $550. I just don't want to spend that. Lol

[doublepost=1475107093][/doublepost]I have been purchasing the sports bands from JET for a while. Never had an issue. JET offers not sized bands while some other sellers offer either the S/M or M/L.

The Milanese band are acceptable. The apple ones are nicer but the cost to quality ratio is tough to justify.

I will purchase a black link from Amazon. $500 is a bit steep. Yeah I know the watch is too.

Cool might check out the jet.

Yeah I like the Milanese, but I am not in love with it. It also not the most comfortable band.

In terms of the link, I love my SS Apple one. It just I don't want to buy another $500 band. We are talking about then being in the $2000+. That is a lot for an AW. Let me know if you find a good link on Amazon.
 
Just picked up a 42mm Ceramic at Tyson's Corner Apple Store in Virginia! As of this posting there is at least one more available.

Just got mine from Tyson's yesterday. So gorgeous!

anyone ordered a Ceramic model the last day or so and already received a shipping notification or improved shipping time frame? I really want to order it now, but i don't want to order it and not receive it in time for a family vacation to Disney in 2 weeks.

I currently have the Series 2 SS, but i will return that in favor of the Ceramic if i can get my hands on one.

Have you checked any stores near you? Some of the bigger stores are getting them in stock.

Yeah....i called yesterday and have even checked online quite often. I live in Louisiana, near New Orleans, and none of my stores will have them in until 11/3. I suppose they could get in some stock, but i'd have to just get lucky and walk in on a day when they got an unexpected shipment in that day.

Can't wait to get mine! The more pictures I see the happier I am that I returned the stainless for the ceramic. I wonder how long until mine ships.........

When did you place your order?

Yeah that is true. I preordered so I can't speak to how fast they are shipping, but I say go for it. I bet they start shipping faster then expected. Just my guess.

Around 36 hours ago. ETA for delivery is 18/10 to 25/10. I keep checking local stores and they don't have any. The only store that does is the Sydney store and I would have to get on a plane to get there, don't think I am that desperate for it lol.
