Hi ! I'm new to MacRumors (but not to Apple, haha).
I've been going through your amazing pics and thought I'd post mine.
After all these dream watches mine is downright simple... it's "just" a silver AWS. Right now I only own Apple sport bands, maybe later I'll get a leather one. Still looking for something that will fit the sports model.
I've had my watch for a little less than 2 months (it was a Christmas present!). It's become my daily companion ... at work, at home, while working out, walking, shopping... even sleeping ! It's a great device and I really enjoy it.

Just bought myself a SB link for the same combo. Arrived today. Very sharp!
I really like that combo. I was actually able to pick up a space black Apple Watch with space black link band. I very happy I've always loved this combo but didn't want to spend $1090 on it.

Don't leave us in suspense! How much did you spend on it?

Finally pulled the trigger on an SS Link Bracelet! I stopped by an Apple Store today to try one on (it's been a while since I've had a hands-on) and found myself unable to leave without one.

What an amazing piece of engineering and craftsmanship. I've briefly tried them on before, but this is the first time I've really spent quality time with one. Very excited to finally have it after months of thinking about it. I'm not sure how often my leather loop is going to get used, going forward. I guess I'll come up with an excuse eventually.

One of my wish lists. This will go well with a suit.
Congrats!
 
Well it finally happened, 6 days in and my watch face is scratched. :(
The same thing happened to me. 4 days in. I tripped over a step when climbing the stairs and fell. My wrist hit the metal corner of a step. Now I have a set of scratches on the top right hand corner. Like a triangle. It's visible in the picture I just posted.
I understand how you feel. Bummer... but oh well, gotta live with it.
 
Wait? A gold with red band? New model just released or something???

Chinese New Year special edition.

Only available in certain countries and until this time next week I think it is.

I considered it but having already got a sport and a SS i think my wife would kill me.

Wow, never heard about it. Cool, it looks like it'd make a nice combo, I love my product red band on my silver sport.

My wife would kill me too if I dared buy one more band or iPhone The power they have for being so small. Lol
 

wow that's a massive saving! not just pushing someone off the fence but blowing it up underneath them ;) lol

you must have missed this: https://www.macrumors.com/2016/01/05/apple-watch-sport-chinese-new-year/

they also sell one thats exactly like your silver with red. the gold one has a gold pin though, which makes it a bit more special.

The Armor Suit screen protector is actually pretty seamless, though obviously the plain glass feels and looks the best. But I forget it's on after a day or so, and then don't worry so much about scratches.

I ended up selling the sport model and getting the stainless steel, scratch free after a month. :)

Why isn't the second hand actually on the dot?
 
Got a Space Black SS to match my standard SS in anticipation of a Space Black Milanese Loop at next month's event (after that leak from a while back). There was an offer on - £100 off so got it for £419 instead of £519. Couldn't resist!

Surprisingly it was manufactured way back in August - before the SKU was even announced at the September event. So the battery was dead, and it was running watchOS 1 so restoring from a watchOS 2 backup was a bit dodgy, lost some activity data.

Roll on multiple watch support in 2.2!
