I knew there would be delays on the SS watches, so I went with Starlight Silver Aluminum 45mm and now second guessing myself. If it has any sort of gold tone to it, I will return it. Hope it looks better in person that the pictures. Next year I will definitely get a silver SS
 
In a hurry I ordered 41mm midnight cellular. Then I remembered I wanted the Nike edition for the additional Watch faces, so I ordered that with the black sport loop. Then I had a feeling I should’ve gone with SS or Ti for the sapphire glas. But the price hike… few hours later I knocked my S5 against the door. Not even hard, but the ionX glas got a major scratch!!! Just from a little contact. So I just checked for SS graphite and could get one with milanaise for store pick up on October 15th.
 
can’t decide between silver vs graphite ss. Also interested in the ss link band, which color combo goes best with to? Graphite with SB link or silver? And vice versa
 
First time buyer. I got green aluminum. I’m tired of going with more generic colors. If it clashes with my outfit, I’ll put a different band on. Cost effective enough to upgrade more frequently. I’d hate to plop down a bunch of money for SS or titanium and discover Apple made some great new upgrades in a year or two and sell it at a huge loss. I’d spend cash for actual gear watches that won’t be outmoded in 3 or so years
 
I'm surprised how relatively even the poll results are, with only midnight and red aluminum as outliers (high and low respectively). I got silver stainless steel, as it's very versatile with bands.
 
If I order the 7, I'm going to get the Starlight. I'm still undecided. I really don't need to upgrade from my 6 but I really like the larger screen. I'm waiting to see what the trade in amounts are, that might push me over the edge to order.
I sold my 6 instead of trading. Got $420 for the cell version (aluminum) which i think is quite a bit more than trading in.

Anyone considering the new blue? I normally go silver aluminum but that’s sadly not an option.
I had the series 6 in blue and this looks almost identical. I really liked it. For the most part it looked black, and most people couldn't tell until they got up closer to it that it was blue.

I am…the articles I’ve seen so far say it’s a lighter blue than last year, which is why I’m considering it. Of course I don’t think anyone will be able to say for sure until it can be compared side by side to the AW6 in person. I’m hoping the tech reviewers will post some videos next Wednesday.

My dad desperately needs a new watch this year (he said his series 3’s battery is dying), and he wanted starlight because he said he’s bored of dark colors.

He also wants a cellular model, but sadly the $100 rebate carrier deal just never happens with AT&T. They must have a deal with google or samsung instead 😒. He might have to wait until there’s some kind of discount.
Treat your dad buy him a brand new Apple Watch 7 41mm Nike Edition.

agree. Everything I ever buy from Apple is white or black. It will be nice (I think) for a slightly different tone. The green looks dark enough that a more formal band could dress it up

Meh, I think it depends on the user.

I haven’t changed mine in 3 years. Next one will hopefully be even longer.

Don’t really wanna upgrade at a yearly basis for this plus I don’t wear any other watches (prefer to go watch less—I usually use my phone for time).

it was more for health tracker and convenience of being able to return msgs or check on the sly along with stocks.

now I’m just splurging for a nice one with a strap to match (going from stainless steel sport to stainless steel Hermes).

I can't decide either, I also like the gold. I've always had silver and I'm thinking of changing it up, but silver looks so good with brown leather straps.

This color combination is really nice...I might have to reconsider after I see the clover green in person. I'm wondering if abyss blue is too similar to the cobalt blue I already have 🤷‍♂️

I currently have the gold s4, which I like but I want something different. Went to the apple store a few times and decided to go with the graphite this time.

If I upgrade this year (undecided; I have a silver stainless series 5 in great condition and still with a decent battery), it’ll probably be to a silver stainless Hermes edition.

Some of the Hermes faces are really nice.
 
Originally ordered a Starlight 45mm w/ Starlight sports band, but changed it today for a Blue 45mm w/ Abyss Blue sports band. Gave up an Oct 15 in store pickup slot when I changed my order. Now it should ship on Nov 18.

If anyone is still looking for reviews of the blue watch, here’s another one, and he compares it to the blue color on the iPhone 13:

 
Just some pics of my midnight alum. It in person looks really black outside or under business lights inside. The only way I was able to show the blue hue was with the flash on the phone taking a picture. But it doesn't show up under normal conditions and looks black to the eye.
