My black band finally arrived in the mail. Ordered them on April 24th.

Tried out a few things for a new post I'm working on, but I thought I'd add it to this thread, too. I've settled on Modular with calendar events in the center, but didn't want that on the example shot. It's a 38mm Sport (and trying it with a screen protector for now to prevent fine scratches on the oleophobic coating - at least until I am sure I won't swing my arm and bang it on something 😀).

Are you happy with the 42 on your 150mm wrist?

Yes, the 42mm was my first choice. Sometimes I feel like the black on black seems like an ankle monitor on my wrist, but otherwise, it looks fine. I'm really happy with it. I think I'll like it a bit more with a metal band, though.

Me too that's why I just ordered the hoco metal band on Amazon can't wait to get it
 
Better Pic of my 42mm Sport SG, changed the band to the s/m and fits much better. Before I purchased it, I thought 42mm was going to be big and look huge like other Smartwatches, but actually it doesn't seem big at all. So glad i went with the 42mm.

One of the best pics I've seen of a 42 on a wrist! Looks very proportionate to your arm/wrist/hand!
Very nice!
 
Looks great!

You could have saved yourself $140 by buying a cheap $10 clear skin for the palm rest on your MBP though. 😛

I was thinking the same thing, but after some testing with my old Seiko, the watch band rests pretty much on the edge of the keyboard deck - sometimes hitting the front edge of the MacBook, sometimes the top. I think I will buy one though, just for "special occasions" when I put the link bracelet band on....

I hadn't thought of going "clear" at all though - great suggestion! Thanks!
 
Here is mine. 38mm SG Sport with Green sport band!

Cancelled my order for the BSB and found one at my local Apple Store. Think it looks good with the sport.

HATE that Apple didn't make this a $599 combo too

So clean looking

Honestly I don't think the SB looks as good with the Sport Band as it does with the Link. I can see it as a 2ndary band for gym, hiking, etc. but I understand why they decided not to. And it would have been $699 as the SB is $100 more than the SS Link.

That said I think the Space Black metal looks classier with the bracelet. With the sport band you almost can't tell it's not plastic. Hard to really see in pics.
