Loved the look of the ceramic - just had a look on amazon uk and found this for 25 quid, winging it's way to me by Tuesday - Going on a 42 stainless steel.
First full day with my first Apple Watch. A SS series 2. Have a couple of bands on order including a black leather, brown leather, and stainless steel link. All from Amazon of course.
Reviews are mixed, looking forward to your opinion once you have it in hand.
View attachment 654446 View attachment 654447 View attachment 654448 Hi - new to forum! I held off on the first AW, wanting to see what they would come out with on the second release. Decided to get a Series 2, but left it too late to order through Apple, with a 3-5 week delivery date. So I was delighted to log into John Lewis website at just the right time on Thursday lunchtime - they had just three left for collection on Friday
So this is my 42mm rose gold Sport with the midnight blue sports strap. I have already ordered a couple of 3rd party straps to mix it up a bit - will post pics as they arrive. Loving it so far!
In your last photo, how do you get the complication to tell the time in words "Five Past Six"?
Its the Midnight Blue Sports Band for 42mm although the pic makes it look a lot lighter than it is in real life!!

Can you link to that band?
Is it this one:

Cocoa sports band with gen 0 SS Apple Watch.
Wait, you want me to show off my Series II, Stainless Steel Space Grey...?
Why of course...

It is. I ordered from that seller, however the lugs on the one delivered were silver so I ordered the same band from an eBay seller instead.

Apple Watch Series 2 (white sport band version). Added Third Party Milanese Band for $12.99. I am very happy with the Milanese Band and it sure beats paying the $200 for the Apple Version. I also have a light blue sport band on order that I picked up for $7.99. Love the watch.

Seems well made and removing a link same as any other bracelet style strap. Think it looks great.
Does anyone have suggestions for really good 42mm double loop leather bands? Something like the Hermes but for the larger watch? I am upset Apple doesn't offer it for their larger watches (Directly aiming that women should only wear it)
The watch keeps session apps current while they're running. This includes workout, maps navigation and a few third party apps designed for similar purposes. There's currently no way to stop them from commanding the screen while they're active.
Yes, but the wording is misleading though. For example, if I choose this
It should wake to show last app opened, not work out session.
I don't even know what this selection is supposed to do.
Fair point. You're right, it is misleading. Maybe they'll alter that in the next release. I wonder if someone running the latest beta can comment on it?Yes, but the wording is misleading though. For example, if I choose this
It should wake to show last app opened, not work out session.

Sheesh. I might want to buy a second watch instead of paying full price for only a bracelet. Heck of a deal you scored.
Incredible deal. If only they had the 42mm. I would have bought one for my kid and keep the link band. I've been waffling between picking up a Nike version as a second watch or getting the Space Black SS 42mm and giving my son the 42mm SS and a few of my bands... but not the link
