Did like the look of the band on the site.
However, the band does look sharp on the watch.
Got a tip for us?

[doublepost=1482712127][/doublepost]A few more shots, first time wearing the link bracelet since having the watch got a lot of compliments on it. Also tried a few of the Nike sport band out at the Apple Store yesterday. Merry Christmas every one.

My most very favorite Christmas present ever!! 42mm Space grey aluminum.
My Christmas gift: S2 gold aluminum. Very impressed so far. Yesterday I had 73% battery life after a full day of use, so apparently that won't be an issue, as I was a little worried about.
This is a third-party "antique gold" Milanese loop. Great color match, feels good, strong magnet, and it cost $10 on ebay!
Concrete. It's the one that comes with the 38MM series one gold aluminium. I like it a lot.
I got a nice upgrade on Christmas morning myself!
Going from the 42mm original Apple Watch (Stainless Steel w/ Milanese Loop) to the 42mm Series 2 Nike+ model, Black/Volt band.
I wanted the Nike+ model for the band alone, as I have very sensitive skin (and eczema), so the more breathable my watch band is, the better. Even the sport band would give me a rash.
S0 -> S2 is a phenomenal upgrade. Significantly faster, equal or longer battery life (never an issue for me), I can wear it in the shower now, and it's noticeably lighter than the stainless steel. I wish I had a Sapphire Crystal display again, but I'll just be more cautious.
I really like the black case, too. I will never get a silver Watch again. Black aluminum or black stainless steel from now on, it just looks so slick.

Yesterday, just out of the box. Wrapping Still on. 42mm SS.
Got my series 2 aluminum gold today with 3 extra bands For the price of the stainless and Milanese and now have a beautiful golden Watch that can have 3 completly different personalities each band with my own matching Watch face to match. The fact that I can change the Apple Watch to have a either casual feel or dress it up And have a formal feeling is incredible. Siri is also amazing it can take a extra second for it to process a long sentence but you know tech ain't perfect so I'm not gonna bitch that oh it's not as instant as a A10 iPhone 7. I'm amazed how the little thing is so capable, when I used it to take a phone call, I thought it was the craziest thing ever. Idk why people hate so much on the Watch. Idk about others but this is my first smart Watch and I actually just got a iPhone 7 to have the Watch and I couldn't be more satisfied with both devices, the watches ability and just I think it looks downright incredible maybe it's just me but also the seamless integration bewtween the two with Siri and it all comes together to make a great experience.

That first picture would make for a fantastic advertisement photo.
Silver Nike plus because the silver will go with more bands than space grey.
May I ask what band that is? I think it would look great with my soon to be shipped Nike+ Space Gray.
Thanks! I see it's $549 on the Apple Store. $149 more expensive than the watch itself. Looks like I'm gonna have to look for a generic one.
Yeah it's up there but if you look on eBay and r/applebandmarket on Reddit then you can find some good deals on the Apple link bands. I bought a third party one initially but it broke on me 2 months into ownership.
