Just came back from the Basingstoke store. I ordered a SS with Black sport late on Friday after going back and forth if I actually want one or not. Delivery 12/5-26/5.
Try-on was a good experience, Apple dude was very helpful and allowed me to try many watches and straps.
Stainless is nicer than aluminium, and glad i ponied up the extra even if this only lasts me a year. Don't think any straps that have metal attachments to the watch will look good with the aluminium, in my opinion.
Will be getting the blue leather loop. My wrist is about 190 circumference and the medium loop when fitted comfortably had around an inch of strap available for further expansion. Surprised as the Apple sizing implied that I'd need the large loop.
Bring it on....
P.S. If you want to reset the looped demo, you can press "the button" twice, then when the screen is black, press "the button" twice again. This allows you to feel the haptic feedback from the demo iMessage several times without waiting through the whole loop.
