damn, the new gold/midnight blue combo really looks sleek. Dunno what it is, but it looks so much more "premium" then the silver/black. But thats a personal preference i guess.
I decided to go for the 42mm Gold/Midnight Blue Sports model. I love the new color combination. However, the gold base will take some getting used to (i.e. all of my other "mechanical" watches have been Stainless Steel"). I think I just need to give it a few days to sink in.
So the sports models come with the S/M & M/L band options. My wrist size is just a bit over 8 inches (8 1/8). I'm on the very last "hole" and it's just a bit "snug" (not tight, but snug). I bought it at the Apple Store and they said to give it a try and if it's too tight, they would replace (for free) the band with the L/XL strap (i.e. which goes up to a 245mm wrist size)......would be perfect for me. I think I'll stop by and have them order the L/XL.
Maybe the AW 2 will come in a 44mm option (i.e. for us guy's with big wrists).

And also I like the brown and red sport bands...those are nextNice, i love how the midnight band looks good on any type of watch. Great color
hehe, feel like buying bands is becoming a fetish on this forumAnd also I like the brown and red sport bands...those are next
I totally agree. The gold/midnight blue combination is really nice. I think it really dresses up the sports line for those wanting to go in that direction. Personally, I think it would be great for business casual (i.e. Which is how I dress for work)....I wear a lot of greys, blues and khaki.damn, the new gold/midnight blue combo really looks sleek.

The (Product)Red or navy sports bands are the next band I will try and get. IF I get the red band I will most likely get the matching iPhone case as well.Here are the pic's of the combination I ended up with: SS-AW (Product Red Band) with additional black band. I'm very happy with the combo....will work great for work, weekend and workouts.

I've waited many months and 223 pages to join this thread. Well, here I am! Nothing special... standard 42mm Milanese and a Midnight Blue sport strap for workouts.
Really looks great!Bought the Midnight Blue band today at the store.
Thats is a super nice Nato strap however, aren't these designed to go across the back of the watch? How is it attached?
