Series 3 Ceramic Edition Owners Thread

I am coming from the White ceramic. He grey blends in nicer than the white watch if that makes any sense. I don’t even notice the red dot and I thought that was going to bother me.

Yeah I love my white ceramic. I would never give that color up, but the grey looks amazing too. Not as good, but close.
 
I just wish Apple made a couple specific bands for the Ceramic watches. I figured Apple would do something different his year but... I picked up the Hermes for the more dressy occasions.

Yep I think Apple needs to work on the band for them.

The problem is my unlimited plan is $75/month after corporate discounts. I don’t mine paying $10 to add it but I really don’t want to go to a worse and more expensive plan. Guess I’ll have to skip cellular.

I'm with you. The grandfathered plan with corporate discount is still the best deal. I also don't have a problem paying the extra $10/month for the watch, but I will not go to an overall more expensive plan just to then add the extra $10 on top of it.

LTE is not the reason why I am going to the S3 Watch. It's a plus, but not a must have.

Have you tried it with the black Milanese loop? It looks real classy.

Not a huge fan of the Milanese loop to be honest. This is why I went Hermès to match my brown shoes and belts at work... lol Thing is I'm actually wearing my Nike more now as I'm hitting the gym every day, so thinking ceramic as a fit all occasion type of watch.

If your on a family plan even with the corporate discount, the new plans save money. A single account no, but family for sure.
 
One more thing about the Watch. It doesn’t feel faster per say but everything is just fluid and smooth. I definitely notice the difference compared to the Series 2.

Hermes is awesome with the Apple Classic band, but I also swear it with the anthracite Nike sport band when its hot 🙂

I completely agree with your statement and typical of at&t to screw their most loyal customers. I only use about 5-10GB of data but for me it’s just the best deal.

I was just happy with watchOS 4 on a Series 2, feels snappier...so Series 3 must even be an improvement. That said, Ceramic Grey's have boost mode 😎

Oh got you. I have worn my Hermès band with my ceramic, and I think it looks very dressed up. It really remind me of this very nice watch

I should say, the white ceramic watch in general reminds me of this. Not the Hermès with ceramic.

Couple other items. The watch powers on much faster than the Series 2. I feel like it’s about a minute quicker. It was 96% charged out of box and the initial setup took less than 5 minutes. Felt like the series 2 last year was a 30 minute setup process and the watch was closer to 70% charged out of the box.

I need to stop reading this thread. It makes me want this, and I have no reason to upgrade.
