So, I've read all the posts talking about Stainless Steel and the Space Black Stainless steel. However, my mind still cannot decide which one to get...... cost is not an issue right now, so I'm trying to consider the other factors.
Stainless (Silver) Pros
Cons
Space Black Stainless Pros
Cons
Basically, the most I'm concerned about is the fear that the Space Black SS will look too "plasticky", as the photos I've seen for the SBSS have depicted a gray-ish look that may seem off-putting for me (when paired with the black of the screen), as opposed to a very high-contrast two-tone finish of the normal SS and black screen.
However, I've seen the Verge's photo of the underside with the scratches on the normal SS, so I didn't know if the SBSS would be much harder to scratch with the DLC coating.
Any advice?
Stainless (Silver) Pros
- Band compatibility
- Nice "two-tone" finish with the black screen and silver case
- May possibly fit more with any outfit?
- Brighter, more noticeable (subjective)
Cons
- Scratches more easily?
Space Black Stainless Pros
- DLC Coating harder to scratch?
- Unique color
- More exclusive (subjective)?
Cons
- Color not perfectly black, so may seem off compared to screen
- No actual review samples to see
- Band incompatibility
