Received my natural Ti in 45mm with the Abyss Blue braided loop and I love it. I came from the graphite SS series 6 and I like the Titanium finish better. Super premium feeling/looking!
I was rushing, so I didn’t get the best pictures with the best lightning. It’s way different from the aluminum. It’s shinier in person, the brushed texture is beautiful, and has a premium feel to it. I’m coming from SS so I was a bit worried too, but it’s already won me over. Has a better/lighter weight than the SS as well.

What is that chair in the back? Looks super comfy.
I got my SBTi with (1 size too small) solo loop.
It feels good in, looks ok-ish. I’m a SBSS guy so I’m bummed I spent $800 for something I don’t really want but also not sure I want to spend $500 more to get it. Yeah I could sell the band but I’d probably keep and enjoy it.
I wish I was confident in the scratch resistance at least.

That makes me regret not waiting for a Ti. Awesome looking Watch.
Looks great! That’s my daily work day combo now that my new titanium has arrived. Previously had stainless steel, but liking the look of the titanium even more.
I wanted to give a shout-out to Nomad for making an awesome Titanium band that matches the natural Ti Watch perfectly.
I've got the same setup in SB, also a perfect match...really makes for a super premium look and feel. Nomad really nailed their Ti bands. This is the link bracelet Apple should have offered.I wanted to give a shout-out to Nomad for making an awesome Titanium band that matches the natural Ti Watch perfectly.
Comments on the Series 7 Apple Watch Edition Space Black Titanium.
- The case is not black. It is grey. It looks good, but if you were expecting something akin to a matte finish version of the Stainless Steel Space Black, you will be disappointed.
- The Nomad Black Titanium Band does not match the case of the Space Black Titanium. I returned it.
- I am keeping the Series 7 Space Black Titanium and selling the Series 6 Hermès Space Black Stainless Steel.
- I am storing my bands with black hardware until the the Space Black Stainless Steel case is available again.

nice combo... I have always opted for the Black Titanium since S4 as I need the extra scratch resistance offered in their awesome coating. I wear mine while unloading trucks at part time job at night. But I did get it with Solo Abyss Blue this year (got it a week after its release to us) and its great blue you will love it even more in person.
My only complaint is I have been a size 10 in all solos (not braided I know but) with my previous S6 Black Titanium... but a size 10 this time is large on my wrist. I had to drop to a size 9. I have 17 Apple bands 7 are Solo's.
Watch is only .003 longer (based on Apples posted dimensions) one would think we wouldn't feel or see a difference but I've spoke with others who had same issue. I even lay the 45 Solo's on top of the 44's and they appear exactly the same I have no answer.
Sorry, getting back to your choice that combo just looks real nice to my eyes. I also see a brownish leather band with that clear Titanium and jeans as a real killer combo too.

Why did you not go with SB Hermes for series 7?
I think you're one of the very few who will now have personally experienced both the SB Titanium as well as SB Hermes.
The Hermès leather bands and watch faces are very nice. But I am really interested in the Space Black Stainless Steel case. I decided that continuing to upgrade every year at the Hermès price to get the latest Space Black Stainless Steel Apple Watch would be extravagant. Therefore, I am settling for the Space Black Titanium which is not actually black but grey.
When looking at the side of my Space Black Titanium with the Digital Crown and Side Button I get the impression that the finish of the Side Button is of a lighter grey vis-a-vis the case.
However, I cannot capture the difference with the cameras of my iPhone which make everything look lighter. (Please see the photo below. It seems as if it was Natural Titanium.)
What has been your experience with the finish of the Side Button? Do you find it to be the same as the case?

I just checked and my SB Titanium side button finish appears to be the same as the case. In other words, I cannot distinguish any difference. Though there may be one it's not easily visible to me.

I can’t tell a difference but it may just be impossible to capture in a picture.
