Had the original AW last year, and after a couple of months, I sold it because it was slow and i found the UI completely unintuitive and difficult to use. I came back for Series 2 after watching the keynote and seeing the overhaul they did with WatchOS 3. I never had poor battery life on the Series 0, but the Series 2 is even better.
I took my Series 2 off the charger yesterday morning (9 AM, 27 hours ago now) used it all day, including a 15 minute run, went to bed and kept it on (used Sleep Watch to track my sleep), woke up this morning and still had 54% left. It appears that i'll be able to charge it every other day, which is great for my usage.
Edit: So it lasted 1 day, 20 hours with 6 hours 51 minutes of usage. Basically, charged it overnight Sunday into Monday. Took if off the charger Monday morning around 9 AM and didn't have to re-charge it until Wednesday morning at 6 AM. That includes two nights of sleep tracking. I think i could have gotten another half day of usage out of it if not for sleep tracking!
