As much as I'm going to want to play around with my Apple Watch the minute I get it; how long should I charge it for when I get it? Do I need to charge it first? I know as similar debate has gone on with iPhones, but I've never quite foundation clear answer.

My plan

1) hook up the charger
2) while charging, play with all the controls, customize face, pair with phone
3) continue playing with controls until I know them well
4) when I've had my fill, let it charge until I go out Friday night for dinner
5) hook it back up when I get back

Can you do that? I haven't heard anything about what you can do with the watch when it isn't on your wrist, since it detects that and disables stuff. I had assumed all you could do is see the time while charging.

I don't know, sometimes my plans fail.
