From my experience, the white ceramic makes everyone around us aware that we are wearing AW. The white color brings out the best of AW unique frame shape. That is a good experience.I think lesser people notice it than we think. I don't really wave it at people's faces haha.. i feel what matters is whether u like the whiteness and the bands that come with it. i personally think it's fun and fresh, but will depend on how you feel about it.My friends are also not surprised i splurged for the white cos i do like white and colors a lot.
Got a tip for us?

Do it. Its not flashy, its classy. This is me at work with it...suited and booted.
Your bands should be fine with ceramic.

I love that combination. Sporty looks.
Got my noir Hermès in, and to my surprise I think I am leaning towards keeping the ceramic. My main reasoning is I go to the gym 5 days a week and having to switch out the leather band for a sport band 2 times a day seems like a headache. And then if I keep the Hermès and don’t wear the band what’s the point?
my gym habits are same as you, so I just wear the sport bands whole day with my ceramic. It works
maybe once a month I wear a bit more formal, Guess that will be when I whip out my saddle brown leather loop to look more appropriate. I find that leather loops are best for ceramic cos u don’t see shiny lugs peeking out..
probably, yes- the edges have to be a little thicker than steel to maintain structural integrity.
Finally, it will be here for today. Hopefully, no delay. I believe you are so excited. I am happy for you.
That’s why I returned my Hermès Nior: didn’t see me wearing the leather band too often.
My gym habits almost the same as you. I work out 6 times a week and I have been wearing sport bands whole day. I change band color whenever I change my upper top shirt/workout color for harmony. Unless I have to change band type, I am wearing sport band whole day.my gym habits are same as you, so I just wear the sport bands whole day with my ceramic. It works

Yes. But, the weight is lighter than stainless steel watch. From my experience, it is more comfortable wearing ceramic than stainless steel watch.
Thank you.
Had it rerouted to a UPS store. Its Tuesday so after work snag the watch and pick up my garlic chicken pizza
I also like my Ceramic a lot. Just hope that will keep the Edition/Ceramic as a regular option for AW in the future. It was such a bummer when they dropped it for the Series 4. Hope they will not drop it for Series 6.
I am very ok if series 6 doesn’t have ceramic, and instead comes back in series 7 haha.. no need to upgrade
I do hope ceramic edition will be kept in the next series 6. I plan to upgrade for next year since next year is expected to be a major iPhone and AW upgrade.
Yippee 😃. The excitement heightens. I hope you can concentrate at work
it was a struggle for me last week when mine was out for delivery.
It’s my Friday. The anticipation makes it even harder to concentrateYippee 😃. The excitement heightens. I hope you can concentrate at work
I notice during my workout and non-workout that ceramic is lighter than my gold SS or SBSS. I never have titanium (as it is not my interest) so I cannot opine on it. From what read either true or not, titanium weight is close to SS.
Hahaha you've gotta be kidding. The ceramic is 1.1 grams lighter than the SS models...that is literally the same weight as 1/4 of a piece of paper. There's no way you can notice that. FWIW, the Ti version is 6.1 grams lighter than SS.
Everyone gets that you like the ceramic model, but how about you try not to exaggerate so much.
It is just my personal experience. To me, it is lighter. Try to wear ceramic for once when you can, not just looking the statistics and believes it. The statistics can be deceiving. So, for once, you try not believing flatly from statistics but try it in person.

It is getting better. Happy Friday on Tuesday . You are the lucky one.
I have tried it. You literally can't tell the difference and if you say you can you're lying. You've got blinders on for this thing and that's fine I guess, but don't sit there and try to kid yourself into thinking that it's noticeably when it's not.
It is to me in person. I could care less what you are experiencing and you are not me. Case close.
