Had a bit of fun with Prisma.

The square face doesn't bother me, but I do wish we could have third party faces. Then designers could create square analog faces that look good on the square screen. (But I do personally think the round faces look okay).
 
How comfortable is that band? Better than the sport model?

I was being facetious. Since 'we' here bought the Apple Watch, clearly we bought it because we like the look of it, etc.
Thus, the look of it, the screen type, and the items on it, is our choice... :)

Change it for a square watch face, and we r starting to get somewhere.. Far too much wasted space.. if Ive designed that watch face it's proof his best days are behind him.
 
Am I the only one who thinks a square face just doesn't work. They try and make it a small phone screen by cramming all sorts of stuff on it so it looks messy and cluttered. just have a clock face,, then a swipe left or right to see other app faces.. fitness, music etc.
Are you telling people to do that because you don't like it? :rolleyes: I use one similar to his because there aren't enough complications I want on many of the watch faces.

I'm not telling anyone to do anything, I'm saying that I like a watch to be a watch first and foremost, not a small phone screen. Then have the added functionality of simple apps on 2ndry screens. The AW hardware is nice, the software leaves a lot to be desired. It just seems cluttered and almost an afterthought.
 
Bought this used from someone at work. I think I got a pretty sweet deal. 42mm Sport w/ two Apple bands (white and black). He was asking $249, I offered him $200 on a Wednesday, he told if he didn't receive any higher offers by Friday that he'd sell it to me. And now it's mine. :)

Was planning to sell it when AW2 came out but with watchOS 3 coming soon that may not be necessary. I mainly use it for telling time, as an activity tracker (primarily steps), and notifications - it seems to do all of those things well enough. Guess we'll see what AW2 has to offer.

Will add, one thing that kind of surprised me, this thing looks huge in some of the pictures but it really doesn't feel that big on. Had to double check to be sure I didn't get the 38mm model. :p

This is the H20 case, so far so good with that. But their bands have no color, so I picked up some Garmin Fenix 3/HR bands off ebay that fit the case. There's a little bit of space on each end since the band doesn't fit perfectly, but it doesn't slide around once on your wrist. Overall, really like the look of it.

I know that this is like steam punk cool - but I'm sorry man, I just can't stop but thinking:

Actually I think I see a little bit of the original design. If you look at the edge of screen, without trying too hard, you can still see some of its original shape :p

I like this. Can you link me to the case?
