Show off your Apple Watch

[LanWolf]

Sometimes you want to protect your precious.... i want to protect it when going to the shooting range, would hate to see a hot shell land on it and damage it.
And some days you do things that might scratch it. Then i have the option to leave it off(and maybe wear my old pebble steel), or use the spigen tough armor case with it.

It is not only a piece of jewelry, but also a tool.
Before i got the apple watch, i would not wear my tissot to the range, but us an old casio watch, and when doing things that might damage it, i wore the casio.

That is exactly why I took mine back. I got a SS instead so as to not be limited

After thinking about it, I upgraded my sports rose gold to a SS. More band options, plus I like the premium feel of the SS watch.

It's a watch. Would you ever put a case on a Rolex? Or any other watch at 10x the price of an Apple watch?

I don't understand if it's because, for many people, it's the most expensive watch they'll own - and therefore want to protect it, or if it's because they just like hideous looking things. Maybe i'll never understand.

Out of curiosity, shooting ranges in NL? Pretty rare!

I would not wear a Rolex, Panerai or other expensive watch when there is a big chance on damaging it. Then I would wear a cheap expendable watch. But the Apple one is not so expensive as a rolex, and there are cases to protect them.
It serves a purpose

And there are many shooting ranges in the Netherlands. Not only Police and military but also civilian. Shooting is also a sport.

I guess that's the difference with you and me then. I wouldn't hesitate wearing a Breitling when doing outdoor activities. What's the point in having nice things if you're going to cover them up? It may serve a purpose, but for me, it's a complete no go.

I've never come across a range in all my years in Holland! Hence my surprise. Thought it was the reserve of Police/Military, pretty much.

Red sport band on the new gold sport watch. Love this combo, even mor so because it matches the shoes perfectly!

 

[emilg]

Didnt think the light brown loop would look this good the SGS.

I've been waiting to see a picture of this combo. Awesome! Reminds me of the Famicom!
Now I'm torn between the stainless and gold sport

I wish there was an option to buy this watch with that color band. Instead of desperately. Yikes! Looks expensive. But looks really good! Nice choice!

After obsessing over which one to get (unfortunately it was all versions, SS, SBSS, Space Grey, and Silver, another thread pushed me to the Space Grey. I thought I was going to get the SS but it was too shiny for me. The silver aluminum didn't quite grab me as much either, and wasn't sure I could justify the extra $200 for the Space Black. And looking around the store, most of the associates had the Space Grey (think different, right?) I have 14 days to change my mind, and there's a part of me that may go back and swap for the Space Black but I think the Space Grey will be good! Grabbed a white band (one of the associates had this same combo, which I liked, so I was glad to see it in person) and of course AppleCare+.
I've setup my Dark Sky and Fantastical, just need to figure a few things out. I've already replied to a few texts from my wife today, so far so good (though I wish I could send a follow up text easily from notifications but it clears the one I just responded to, so have to use the social button, AFAIK).
I do have a Skinomi screen protector on it (tried the full body but it was a PITA so I took it off) and I can't tell it's on there. The pic shows a mix of glare and finger prints, but it looks perfect, so I'm happy.

Have had my Midnight Blue 42mm Apple Watch Sport in Aluminum Gold for just over a month now and love it. I do want to find a nice brown leather band for it though.

Even minimal would be good.

 

[sflomenb]

Even minimal would be good.

I don't know why it can't have three in the three corners

 

[robertk328]

I don't know why it can't have three in the three corners

Or three small across the bottom like Modular or one long like Minimal.
You would still have the option to disable if you wanted.

Do you find it too flashy for office work? with shirts and slacks?
