Just got the Nike sport band to go with my 44mm stainless. Really like this combo.

There are so many great Series 4 pics in this thread! I especially like how so many people have paired their new watches with treasured previous-gen bands, and it is very impressive how the old bands still fit seamlessly with the new case - hats off to Jony Ive and co.

After a strange series of events I now have the Gold Stainless Steel with Gold Milanese Loop, replacing the Space Black I originally had on Friday, which had a slight issue with the screen. It's a bit much to wear every day, but for the odd occasion it's really nice. Most of the time I will be pairing it with a trusty Sport Band though.

The band is too much or the watch?

For my personal fashion, wearing a gold watch and gold Milanese band all the time would be a bit flashy and not in keeping with my scruffy appearance. :D

The gold watch with a Sport Band is a lot more subtle though.

I'll reserve the gold Milanese for special occasions! And wear a Sport Band with the gold watch for the rest of the time.

Of course everyone's different and I'm sure there are plenty of people who could pull off the gold watch + gold band look 24/7! :)

Ah ok...that makes a lot of sense; i have a stainless steel Milanese band myself and i am in total agreement with you.
 
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.

Are the variations in that band all shades of blue? It doesn’t happen to have any of the gold threads or specs like the black one does it?

Finally got it in. 44mm gold aluminum. how does it look? Too big or no?

Looks perfect!

For those of you who have the 44mm watch, what size wrist do you have? I currently have the 38mm and have a small wrist (6.5") however I am seriously considering the 44mm. Question is - just how big would that look on my wrist. Anyone with a small wrist wearing the 44mm?

I say go for it! I have a small wrist (6.3"), and my primary regular wearer (prior to the S4, which I love so far!) is a 44mm Panerai, which is far bigger and bulkier. It's a matter of personal taste and what you're used to/comfortable with, but I get compliments all the time on my bigger watches.

Here's my 44mm S4 on the leather loop. (worth noting that the silicon sport band it came with is stiffer and shows more band on each end of the watch, which I think makes the fit look perfect. The leather loop fits quite flat, comparatively, so the watch looks a little bigger in relation to the wrist. But it's super comfortable, and doesn't move at all—an advantage of the watch being so light!)

I always had the 38mm as I have twigs for writs and I finally went 44mm and it fits nicely!

Which watch face is that...I LOVE it...especially with the Apple logo

It's the new Infograph watchface, but I have removed two of the complications in the middle and only kept the Apple logo on top and day/date on the right... keeps it very clean!

The gold would look amazing with a black leather band as well - would need gold adapters or maybe a black leather loop, but neither is available from Apple

Thank you so much for the pic for reference! Seriously thinking of getting the 44 now. :)
