The Space Black Apple Watch uses a DLC coating, different finish compared to the back of the phones.

Hey guys! As you many of you probably already know, iPhone announced two new colors to the iPhone family and I can not decide which one to buy! I know the Piano black is prone to scratches and smudges but I already found an awesome clear protective case so I'm not worried about that.

It's Jet Black not Piano black, and there's already a thread on this.

They have the same warning on the SS Black Watch. But it doesn't scratch that easy.
but again keep in mind apple watch and 7 plus uses completely different material for example watch uses stainless steel while 7 plus is out aluminum. the base also helps and factors in paint/color being on the object.
kinda like a paint on a plastic bottle compare to an paint on a wall. which one you think would peel more quicker.
Was initially thinking of 128 Jet Black but worried about scratches and plastic look. Now leaning to Black. More of a classic look and less prone to micro scratches.

i've decided that the jet black doesn't match IOS. if this phone were running IOS 6 it would look great, but it just looks out of place with such a flat UI.
You're overthinking it lol.
Jet Black + a Crystal Clear case is going to be beautiful.
well, i overthought to my decision
matte black 128gb with a bumper
After seeing the Matte on Engadget looks great! Matte it is! Love the look of it compared to the Jet Black

Well considering how many people fondled those phones after fondling themselves when it was presented on the screen, any colour would look disgustingly smudgy!
Jet Black looks very toyish. Matte Blaxk looks sexy. Too bad the dark blue didn't materialize. A red would have been badass!
I wish we could see these in person before preorder but don't tbhnk anyone will carry prior to order time.
So torn on this as well.
My heart says jet black, my brain says matte.
May go jet and do the 14 day window for return even though it will probably be a while.

If you get it through Apple at full price should be good but I'd stick with one and go with that....be aware sometimes carriers charge fees for stuff like that..... just sayin
