I always buy the silver variant (stainless steel/natural titanium) as I believe it is classic, and goes with any strap.

How about you?

Do you stick to one colour, or do you have a change?

Wishing you all well.

My Series 4 was black aluminum, Series 6 Stainless Steel, and Series 8 Silver aluminum. If I was to buy a new one it would likely be silver
 
I always buy the darkest, same with iPhones. Had every Apple Watch Series from the first in 2015 in Space Black DLC until they ditched it for Graphite PVD and now Slate S10.

Also had the first Ultra and still have an Ultra 2, both in natural titanium as that was the only option when released.
Always have two AW on the go.

Will probs go Ultra 3 this September in black if offered, with my S10 being 2nd in command with mostly sleep tracking duties.

My U2 is launch model, so almost 2 years old, had they offered black at the time…
When I upgrade my U2 it will be to a black

S0 Stainless Steel Silver
S2 Stainless Steel Silver
S3 Stainless Steel Black
S4 Space Grey Aluminium
S5 Stainless Steel Gold (still have it)
S7 Stainless Steel Silver Hermes (still have it)
U1 Nat Tit
U2 Nat Tit (still have it)
S10 Jet Black (still have it)

I love my mix at the moment and wear all four (Gold, Silver, U2 and Black) regularly.
 
I had many watches since Day 1 : Stainless steel, Silver/Space grey/Starlight/Midnight aluminum, Ceramic White, S7 Titanium, Ultra 2 Nat Ti and S10 Nat Ti.

I sold all of them except for Ceramic and my S10. Wish I had kept my S7 Ti, this was the nicest model I had.

Next year, I might add Slate Ti as a S11.
 
If I were to buy another Apple Watch I would it like to be golden. I have the stainless steel silver series 7, got it recently exchanged via AppleCare since battery dropped below 80% after 3 years and now it feels like new. Will make it probably another 2-3 years. So I might just stick to it until it dies. I am indecisive if i would buy another smart watch

off topic question for you: are you in the US? did your replacement S7 come with blood oxygen enabled or disabled?
There is discussion going on in other threads, and my S7 Ti will soon be due for battery service too under AC+.
Thanks

No, I am in Europe. Blood O2 never was disabled here

Been through both Space Black S0, Silver Stainless S2 + S4, Space Black Titanium S7 and now natural titanium Ultra. So tried a bit of both.

With the Ultra straps being so expensive it might get me to think twice about switching colour again though.

That Space Black Ultra colour does look good though. Let’s see what they have for us with the Ultra 3.

My first was a silver stainless Series 0. I decided to go with the black stainless when I upgraded the series 4 and I absolutely hated how it looked. My wife had ordered the gold stainless and I loved hers so much I sent it back to apple to exchange mine for a gold. I currently have the natural titanium Ultra 1 and whilst I like the watch, I miss the gold stainless. I'd seriously consider a return to a gold one. Just always felt like a very classy looking watch. The Ultra is more masculine but I'm not necessarily a huge fan of that.
 
I always go for more silver colors and only get models with sapphire glass faces. I cannot handle scratches on the screen. Always been that way, even when I wore traditional watches.

I also prefer watches that don’t have a coated color that shows a different color when scratched.
