How about the Milanese bands and classic buckle - they have another lug. Do they wiggle / wobble :) ?

Can't speak for those apple bands. I'm glad I bought 3rd party Milanese bands. They haven't been worn in months.
 
Same here. Got a cheap milanese black job from amazon and have worn it all of 3 times (I like it, I just don't really like switching bands that often and I run or swim almost daily so the sports band is easiest to leave on).

Some poor lighting photos of the Platinum and the Anthracite nike watch bands with the ceramic attached. Both bands I think look great with it, with the Platinum edging out the Anthracite. The Anthracite makes it look more like a typical fitness watch and the Platinum looks fancier/higher end.

I tried the Black/Volt on in the store and found it a bit too loud with the ceramic, but if you want that super bold striking look, it'd work great.

Personally I would like to see the colt colors reversed

thewhitetower01 - Looks amazing!! I ended up returning mine because of the loose strap included. Looks like the nylon band is not loose?

I'm thinking of opting for the black SS - but I really like the white ceramic with the straps - nice combo :)[/QUOTE]

I absolutely love the ceramic watch. I'm just so torn between upgrading from my S2 Space Gray to another S2 watch. My guess is there will be another one come September, but it's such a long wait!
 
Maybe so, but the S3 Edition Watch, should there be one, could quite likely be made of another material again.

I wish you hadn't said that. It just makes me want one all the more.

I mean, if I sell my S2 that's still effectively new with AppleCare for 300, I'm still what, 900 from the ceramic? I can afford it, but damn.

Well I liked the look of that white leather loop so much I tracked one down brand-new-in-box on ebay. Unfortunately now that it arrived I realize the leather loop is REALLY long and my wrists are just not that big. Anyone here interested in an unused 42mm Large white leather loop before I put this back on ebay?
 
Forgive me for being a lowly Sport pleb, but is the watch face in the OP exclusive to the Edition, or am I just blind?
Newp.

Face -> "Numerals"
Typeface on it looks like it's either prisma or rail, i'm betting on the former. The precision of the lines is a bit buggered by how cameras deal with the those lines.

My latest extravagance: The space black link bracelet
View attachment 697448

Yah on my S1 I have the black stainless steel and black link bracelet and my new apple watch edition is coming on friday was hoping to find a different suitable band but don't like sport bands and just can't see any other apple bands I like. Its looking like the link bracelet silver or black is my only option. How are u liking the combo I'm not sure if it will look as appealing as my current black on black ss link combo.

Also anyone have any pics of ceramic edition with the silver stainless steel link bracelet? All I can find is a couple pics someone posted here but they are too close up to get a real feel.

Looking forward hopefully to having a exclusive apple watch that won't scratch up as easily as ss and alum

Let us know how the white band ages! Considering one for myself and I'm curious to see it after a few weeks / months of daily use.
There's a bit of blue dye that has rubbed off from jeans and things but to the casual observer it still looks basically new. :)
