Nah. You are just hating.
Use this thread next time, I don't see why your watch need a specific thread : https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/show-off-your-apple-watch.1872015/
Because people like to brag and get the 'likes' just like Facebook.
It makes them feel special getting approval from people on the internet who they will never meet.
Relax people. It's a damn online forum.
Sweet watch OP.

I can't lie -- I would totally get one if I could. I was recently gifted a gold plated watch (PVD, if it matters, but to me, plating is plating) and genuinely enjoy wearing it, even with its gold bracelet.
Bragging or not, if he can afford 6,7, whatever Editions he probably doesn't care what we think.
FWIW that Rose Gold/Midnight Blue looks fantastic. The stitching is a nice touch compared to the black/saddle brown bands.

Thanks for the photos showing the box, as I had been curious about it; I can see the charging puck in the box -- that's really cool! I use the box that my SS Space Black watch come in to set the watch down when I'm not charging it -- if I'm in the shower or doing some activity where I don't think the watch would be safe and yet it doesn't need to be charged just then. I keep one half of the box in the bedroom (where the Mophie watch stand and charger are, too) and the other half on my computer workstation in another room.
I don't understand how pictures of a watch can get people so upset. Yeah I'm a little jealous as well, but thats no reason to flame the guy...
Stunning watch OP. Wear it in good health!

As far as I'm concerned a guy with 5 or 6 editions deserves his own thread, rock on!
I think they are like 15kLooks classy and sharp. Seems better for dress up occasions as that heavy buckle clasp would drive me crazy while my wrists are pressing against a desk while on a computer!
Was it really like $12,000. The sales tax alone buys 3 sport models for me
Great looking watch.
Pay no heed to the jealous haters.
If I received one if these, damn right I would brag about it!

Couldn't agree more. I would like to have the opportunity for people to be jealous and hate on me for posting a $17000 watch. Granted, I probably would buy an IWC instead but it does look good.
I don't care what people buy or how much they spend on it. But why would you take pleasure in bragging about it?
I love it. While I don't quite get the value of it, I'm not doing the OP's accounts so who cares! Even if they are showing off a bit they have bought something that they like and are giving us the opportunity to have a little look for free - that is a long way off the definition of asshat in my view.
As I type I'm rocking the gold/midnight blue sport - really like the combination and well into stage three of my Apple acceptance cycle (1. 'That's unnecessary and overpriced.' 2. 'Screw it, I'll buy it anyway.' 3. 'Crap, this actually is useful.') I've done it many times, and I'm sure it will continue with the addition of multiple extremely offensive words.
I actually think the gold sport is a bit of genius marketing. Normally, companies create loss leaders or halo products to drum up interest into the products they actually sell. This time they made a handsome profit off the halo product and then will make a metric butt ton of money selling a 'budget' lookalike.
P.S. Apple recognises 'asshat' as a word!

Have fun with your new watch, I'm jealous! Ignore the people moaning at you, they probably have nothing better to do!
