Here is mine. Got the aluminum 44 SB on launch day. Today went to the store and got the SS gold. I’ll return one. Don’t know who which one
Got a tip for us?

Very surprised just how many of you get the stainless steel model. Im kinda envious because i got the 40mm space grey nike+ edition that wont get here until oct 19 by the earliest and all of these stainless steel ones look very very very nice but $400 is already pricy
You may have just sold me on the gold SS watch. I had been torn between that and silver, and part of my hangup was that I wasn't sure the gold would work with this year's bright blue bands. The combination looks fantastic here.
how do u get the activity complication to show the hourly data? mine only shows an overview...
You have to use the new info modular face. Looks like you are using the older modular face.
brilliant, thanks! i dont understand why they kept the old face... maybe for those poor series 0 peeps? (that was me last week)
Also possibly because some complications aren’t compatible with the new faces (I hope not compatible YET)
Must say I was surprised by how versatile the gold was. Matches really well with all my darker bands (like black sports band/loop/Milanese, midnight blue sport). But also brighter colours like Stone, horizon, yellow, fog, and white sports bands.
I just wish I had gotten the teal. Saw someone with a teal and gold, beautiful combination.
Loving all these different combos! I have a SB SS 42mm on order but I was wondering if anyone had the SB SS with Cape Cod Leather Loop? I'm in love with that blue but i'd like to see a photo before I commit. No apple store locally so unfortunately I can't see them in person 
TIA!
TIA!
My Series 3 aluminum with a new Apple Sport Loop band in Cape Cod blue. First time I’ve had any color (other than white/gray) in 3 and a half years.
Great taste it’s the same setup minus on series 4 44mm I have plus the white sport loop! I love the new watch design

Isn't that great?! It wouldn't work the other way around if you were downsizing from the larger to smaller watch - that would probably look ridiculous sticking out on the sides. I did sell several bands on eBay (including a fairly rare one that fetched a decent sum!), but I pulled my last 2 auctions so I will have more variety in bands. I love the sport loop bands, but sometimes the regular sport bands look better for certain occasions.

And.....now I want another sport loop band! That's a great color!
Wondering -- with all this skill to post images... I have yet to see classic dials on the new 44 mm screen. Very curious about how the Utility, Color, Chronograph, and Simple dials appear on the larger screens -- with and without complications. Bonus if someone could measure the diameters between dials on the 42 and the 44... Love the Apple Watch, but also love the circle look -- so pretty much always use the Utility, Color or Simple faces. Sometimes I even double tap and then center the dials (General, Accessibility, Zoom: On) But that never holds in long sleeves... (And centering the dial is not easy -- and you lose the 3 and 9 o'clock...
Having the same “issue”. Finding the right face layout. I like the black background versus white as the white is so bright! ;-)
