Is that the original space black steel link band I see with the watch?! Looks fantastic! I have the same Apple band in steel to go with my old (current) Series 2 steel. Getting the gold SS now, and hope they will make a matching gold SS link band -- since they are producing them again for the first time in over a year!

It is, I swapped it from my Series 1 black stainless steel which I still have, not getting rid of that :) (I did give up the original 42mm SG Apple Sport) Right now I have a the black milanese loop on the S4, wow the watch appears much bigger.

I do love the look of SILVER Stainless Steel, always have. I'm already thinking of exchanging this SG Aluminum and grabbing the silver SS. I don''t even need the cell service for it, that's not a big deal for me. The silver SS is just different for a change. I THINK..more like hope one of the stores around here will have at least 1 in stock in the next 12 days in my return/exchange period.

Ignore the ugly nails and scratched up hands. (Parrot and puppy owner). I love my 44mm gold!

You guys are killing me. I just spent a small fortune on my XS Max, now I can't look at my 42mm SS S3 the same anymore.

:(

I felt the same. So I traded in my s3 and a couple old iPads I had laying around and grabbed the gold watch I wanted at the apple store to match my gold max with no money out of pocket.

Unfortunately, I don't have any old stuff 'laying around.' I only have my SS AW3 with Milanese loop to sell to finance it. Doesn't matter as they are currently out of stock.
 
He’s my 44mm SG Alu WiFi with black sport band model.

Big step up from my 1st gen model (42mm SG Sport)

Guys, in near by store they don't have the 44mm or 40mm demo unit. And I am still undecided for which size should I go for.
So, I tried 42mm(Black) and 38mm(Pink), by looking at the pictures, can you guys suggest me, that for which size should I go for according to my wrist size. Thanks

Agree - 44mm suits your wrist size - and you'll be happy to have a larger screen! and bigger battery.

I love my AW - because I have a collection of bands I could not go with 40mm which made it an easy choice

I paid for the watch by selling things that we weren’t using around the house on Let Go and Offer Up. I made some extra cash while cleaning out the closets.

I have small 165mm wrists. I wore a S3 42mm and didn’t feel it was too big. The S4 feels and looks no larger IMHO. I took two pictures, one from farther away that looks more like real life and then the typical closer up one where the camera makes the watch look way bigger than real life due to the perspective. Trust the farther away one and use the closer one just for the detail of the watch... this is a S4 44mm SBSS.

SS or Alu?
