I pre-ordered on launch day, but delivery wasn't until end of October, but found I could pick up today at my local store, so cancelled the pre-order and will be picking it up in a couple hours.

love my new Apple Watch Ultra. Just arrived in Brisbane, so it’s time to take it swimming.
 
Lmaoo this looks ridiculous on folks wrists

To each his own but I agree, in this review it is strange because in the picture of all the watches on the table, it does not look odd, but as soon as he places it on his wrist, it looks ridiculous.

Also is it just me or does the speaker sound bad, he says it is close to on par with an Iphone, not there yet, to me it sounds tinny and shrill, could just be his voice but in the future I would like to use a smartwatch's speaker to listen to podcasts and radio stations, not if it sounds like what it did in this video.

That aside this product could be really cool with an Ipad Nano like case, pocketwatch sort of deal, I don't know, never bet against an Apple product but I wonder if these will suffer from lower than expected sales.

Well, since they’re selling faster than they can make them, I would say it looks like a success. Mine arrives in ten hours.

I gather you are joking because Apple does not make public the number of Apple Watch unit sales. It will take time for an independent researcher to give an estimate on that question.

I just received mine in Brisbane, Australia. It looks fantastic and in my opinion, the best looking Apple Watch and the size I have been hoping for ever since the first Apple Watch. I tried the Nomad Titanium watch band and it looks better than it did on my previous AW7 Edition Titanium.

Nice!!! Congratulations.
 
Got my Ultra this morning. It feels light and I’m loving the screen size.
A significant upgrade on my series 4 😁
For those we that we come from a 7, it´s the same screen. You will see it huge frist days.

Which watch face is that? It looks great!
Thanks in advance!

Edit: Ok, it seems to be the Chronograph Watch Face, but i don´t get the pointer in white, like you have it.

It goes white when it is in its ‘sleep’ mode but as soon as I raise my arm to look at the watch, the white in the hands disappears.
 
I got the watch with the midnight ocean band. The other one is from a company called Nomad. They make excellent watch bands for the Apple Watch. That one is a their Titanium band.
Thanks. It´s nice! And the same color, it seems.
