How is the digital crown functionality? Is it easy to take on and off? I want one but I like the idea of being able to switch bands easily.

The digital crown still works as it should -- it was not so accurate at first but I just had to tighten the casing and I haven't had an issue with it since.

The downside is that it wouldn't be something you would take on and off quickly. It's literally 2 minutes to remove the screws that hold it together, it's just not as fast as the stock 'slide this off and slide in another band'.

Here is my Space Gray, I replaced the band with a white one and added the Spigen case.

Here's mine after receiving it last Thursday! Loving it! Also have a white sports band for certain days. Thinking of getting a leather loop as well for when I take my out Mustang!

Did someone say orange? :p

The orange really turns heads, i was in the Apple store today to look for a leather loop and all the geniuses crowded round, all gasping at my unusual color i had. None of them had any idea about getting adapters. Felt very awkward as i hat being center of attention. Maybe orange isn't a good idea. lol

What lugs did you use?


There are many vendors selling the lugs, and also different colors, but i purchased from 2 different places and both times received Yesoo branded lugs. So i can only vouch for Yesoo, they are on amazon and ebay.

Worth noting, the first set of adapters i got was with regular springbars. If you zoom into my picture you can tell the orange band is on the springbars version, the profile is slimmer than the regular apple style and the other 2 i have on the blue and red. I'm waiting for more regular ones to arrive so i can put the orange and white onto the regular looking screw type adapters. I don't care much for the springbars, as they may pop out if pulled very hard i think. Screws are safer.

Thanks!
 
I've had the watch for a couple of weeks now (38mm SG) and yesterday I decided to buy the white sports band for it. I like the "monochrome" look. Makes it look a bit "lighter", more like summertime. ;)
