So I was in Vegas and picked up the ceramic... I had to return my original SBTi because the screen glass had an imperfection but the local stores in PHX didn’t have SBTi to replace. Had every intention of getting another SBTi while in Vegas but really was drawn to the ceramic.
Then looking at the SBTi i the store it was scratched on the crown! The Apple store employee said he has seen some of the SBTi units scratches. I asked to clarify it was the SB variant and he did. He did say he has seen the SBSS scratched but that was super rare.
I really like the look of the SBTi but the ceramic is calling me this go around.

Do you like it? i find the "desert" colour slightly too mild for my liking, so i returned it for a camel sport loop 🙂

I like the color tone which provides some mild contrast as compared to pure white straps. 🙂

It’s hard to resist. When you put bands like the lemon on you stand there and think hmmm what shirt will I need to buy to make this awesome.
I hated the Meyer lemon but had a damn it moment when I put it on.
The white is unique and as I have said it can be playful and dressy.
The woven nylons looks great
juat got mine, ordered it on line but have to return it to the store so I get my $6 off for EPP

I paid $18 to park at the Forum Shop in Vegas. Guess I should feel better now... 
There's parking right behind the store for 15min with hazards on; that's where I always go.
It looks great! Congrats and welcome to the family haha 🙂

I know. It hurt my bones to pay that much. Should have found a closer lot but I don’t know downtown very well anymore since I live in Milwaukee.

What I have noticed, is that alot of the apple stores have these watches in person. They will say sold out on the apple store but speaking to an apple person in the store, i had a plethora of options to choose from. People might be more inclined to go into the store instead of ordering and waiting several weeks. it's up to you.
I too would definitely go into a local store if at all possible - especially with online delivery times now ballooning
