what happened to charger store?

seems like only leather buckle and leather available, nothing else

is that store shutting down soon / clearing out remaining inventory?

I liked browsing the selection on eBay

That’s a great pair!! How many watches do you own now?
I replaced the 40mm SBSS with this one and sent it off that black Hermes 44mm and a bunch of bands to a forum buddy. The brushed look is just killer with leather.

So back down to my five active and my S0 SSS and my S3 Nike SGA. Apple’s five watch limit is the only thing keeping me from true insanity.

I’ll give my dad the gray ceramic this summer and re-pair the Nike. I’m also going to see if my mom still uses my old rose gold S1, as I’m dying to take it back and use it for photos, even if I don’t re-pair.

I wonder if I’ll ever get a new watch in a proper box again...even with my friend’s employee discount, the people on here have me fully converted to just waiting to get something half price on eBay, especially from these big wholesalers who sell them without bands or pucks or any of that nonsense. This SBTi might have the older processor but it’s at 100% battery health and otherwise mint.

Nicely done. Must admit I’m thinking similar, just going second hand market. My S6 was new but I’ve picked up two S5’s since to go with it and just as happy with them. A Ti may well be in my future!

There is a five watch limit? PER PHONE RIGHT?
 
two watches are drivin me nutz already, because i am obviously tooo blonde to correctly configure sleep and/or the wake up alarm: every morning, the apple birds are singing on both watches no matter, which one was in bed with me =)
So for me... phive watches might lead to the necessity of a separate/nonApple alarm clock 😆

Haha yeah trust me when I had to switch from my SBSS to SSS as workout/sleep watch, I made sure to dig down and find that “use this watch for sleep” toggle.

Definitely my worst nightmare when the feature shipped that I would be dealing with five Cuckoo clocks...but the setting is right there in the watch app and watch’s Settings.

@athousandbands thanks a lot for your blonde-support =) sleep has been disabled on one watch; i guess the birds will sing on the sleep enabled watch only from here 8)


but.. now the idea of an additional Ti is growing again☺️
Trust me I knew exactly what you were talking about.

Also I used to use the “quiet then loud” special wake up ringtone on my phone before I started wearing the watch to sleep and one morning I went insane because the birds outside sounded just like the ringtone.
 
Being so deep in (just need Chargie to respond about Stone1 and Apricot), I’m well beyond the point of making a subjective judgment on future bands. I simply will eventually get them all. Do you really think there’s a primary blue they haven’t hit yet? I feel like Royal/Surf/Delft/Blue1/Blue2 really covers it. Where I see them going next is purply blues up to and avoiding Pride Purple haha. Pulling for a frosty blueberry look 🤞🏽
We need a non-pastel Tiffany blue/turquoise color, I think.
 
This is Gray/Black, the gray ceramic series 3 band. Dark Gray is the SBTi Series 5/6 band. It seems they’re all $49 dollars, whether Edition or Hermes.

Got it. Thanks for the info!

I just got my first AW (nike series 6 aluminum) two weeks ago. I was thinking of getting a black band, but I think the gray/black would be better combo and more unique.

I ordered a classic buckle saddle brown strap from chargerstore and should be here soon. That should help dress up the watch more when needed. I really like the look of the titanium models and SS models, but didn't want to spend the money on them. I also wanted the watch to be as light as possible for workouts and long runs.

We’ll find you a mint wholesale Ti S6 this time next year. I just got an s5 for 355. And it’s very lightweight.
