Here's my gold ss with the original Apple black milanese loop. Still waiting for the gold milanese.

Anyone have the space black 44 with the new blue horizon sports band? Apple showed this band off with the aluminium grey but I’d like to see how it pairs with the space black.

Thanks

After looking at these photos for the past 10 days of the Stainless Steel's, I definitely wanted to upgrade! Trade my 44 Alum for the silver stainless...it's not that simple.

For those who have the 44mm SS, feel lucky. They are extremely hard to find right now, those who even pre-ordered back on 9/14 have had the delivery dates pushed back - again to late October, early Nov.
 

Wow that’s pretty amazing !

That could really help with making you visible at evening runs
 
I decided to return my aluminum silver watch and get space gray. I chose silver because I also got the silver XS Max, and because my husband has space gray watch/phone and our son has the gold watch/phone, but I honestly prefer the look of the space gray watch. I was actually wishing I'd ordered the space gray while still waiting for my preorder to ship, but when I saw how backordered the watches were, I decided I'd just deal with having silver. But, I plan to keep this watch for at least 2 years, and that's a long time to wish I'd changed colors. I feel like I opened a Pandora's box, however, because starting the return process also caused the trade-in of my series 3 to be cancelled. So, now I need to mail back my series 4 by the 20th. Just hoping my series 3 is returned this week so I can go back to that while waiting for my space gray series 4 to arrive (estimated Nov 5-12).

One interesting thing I noted when I selected return, however, was the option to exchange the band that came with my series 4 watch. I did some research on this because I'd never heard of that option, and found a few articles online from 2015 that Apple offers this band exchange. From what I read, it is only within the 14-day return window and you have to call Apple or do online chat, and it's only if you bought from Apple.com or the Apple Store app. So, I'm hoping I can exchange the black sport loop for another color sport loop because I don't want it to look exactly like my husband's watch. I like the indigo, storm gray, and cape cod blue sport loop bands, so hope I can choose one of those.

Same boat. Especially since I recently switched to Xfinity Mobile and they don’t support wearables anyway. I went cellular with my series 3 and I can count on one hand the number of times I left my phone at home. I’ll probably pick up the space gray 44mm. They are readily in stock at my Apple stores.
Little side question but how is xfinity mobile working for ya? I remember getting an email from them awhile back advertising that I should switch and I was like “pshhh yeah right” but I’m curious how your experience with them has been

Hi TomTattoo! Thanks for checking out the video. Sorry the music wasn't very good. Honestly, I spent about an hour trying to find the perfect music. I could use your help: what type of music would you recommend for such a video? Thanks!
Now that’s how you deal with criticism. Just from this response, I’m gonna watch your video. Congrats on the new watch man!

Nike 44mm arrive today!
Sexy! Can I get a side profile view with the crown showing?

Honestly it has been the same as it would be for anyone on the Verizon network, with the exception of using a lot less data. Since it jumps onto the XfinityWiFi spots wherever it finds them, I’ve been able to drop to a per gb tier as opposed to unlimited.

How did you get to this screen? I got my S4 with the black sport band but would really like to have a sport loop instead since I still have the sport band from my S3.
 
Was wondering if anyone thinks this little gap between my crown and body(of watch) is normal. Might be a little hard to see.

Does anyone have a space gray aluminium Apple Watch series 4 with the space black link bracelet? Can I have a look at some photos. Cheers!
 
I’m thinking it’s the lighting in my office, but has anyone seen this purple tint on their series 4? I don’t recall seeing it over the weekend. Doesn’t bother me just curious.

BTW, this is one of my favorite combos: obsidian/black and space gray

Doesn’t look normal to me. If you zoom in it looks like you can see the gasket starting to come out.

I just started wearing it today and noticed that small gap. I felt like it wasn’t normal because the underside doesn’t have that same gap. Im thinking if I should return mine and order a new one.
