True they would say that as a way to informally address a friend or acquaintance. There are a couple of AW wearers who are Brits here and address me like that too.Hmmm I’m curious. “Mate” is usually something British males say. Are you British? More to the point. Are you male? lol
Can’t go too off topic here dude… I sent you a DM. Where’s your Apple Watch picture?
