Still Don't Get It

still looks clunky and ugly.

After everyone going crazy over large screen iPhone 6 and 6+, we are all going to put them in our pockets so we can stare at a 1" screen? What's next, the Ring?

still looks clunky and ugly.

I'm agreeing with you on clunky (42"), but I think the 38s look great on both men and women so far in pics. I'll find out IRL in a few hours.

Confirm. I turned Bluetooth off on my phone and could still call.

Can you turn off bluetooth and ALSO turn off your router or go outside away from wifi and see if the watch connects to the phone?

I'm wondering if the watch will pair to the phone over a wifi hot spot, or just your home wifi and bluetooth?

Anyone get a 42mm SS with Link bracelet yet?

What are you saying? Have you even tried the Sport on? Let me guess, you ordered the SS, right?

I have tried on the Sport, Space Grey Sport and Stainless Steel. I liked the link best but unfortunately could not try on both versions of the SS Link. I wear all my watches with a metal band so the Link is the most appealing and I was surprised at how much I liked it. I also like some weight and the SS Link has that. I thought I would like the Milanese but didn't care for it in person. The Leather Loops are nice but I felt like their price point out me off. Not that the Link price point doesn't.

Because of this and my wanting to see how durable they are, and a host of other reasons/factors, I have held off from preordering and do not have one coming to me today or anytime soon. The SS and SG Links definitely have a "want" factor for me. But I have not given in yet. I have actually had two try on appointments and have tried on almost every combination. I would/will probably get a Link and get a Black Sports band as an extra for working out and other times I don't want to wear the Link but would not choose to wear the Sports Band all the time though I will say I was rather impressed by the feel of the Sports Band.

I turned off wifi and bluetooth and got this:

Here's a few photos of mine (42mm SS Black Sports Band).

I think he is trying to say what I have thought... when I see the sport in a picture it looks cheaper but when I see it on it looks much better but the stainless steel looks great in pictures and when worn. I think the SS Space Black Link looks exceptionally nice and I gave in and ordered one but right now I have to wait until July.

Post all your photos! I wanna see everyone's watch when it arrives. Anything specific you want photos of just let me know.

*Sidenote, it's not bent. The light makes the top look that way in one of the photos lol.`

Gorgeous..

Got my 42; it's AWESOME!

I mean just...STUNNING.

Funny how the SS looks like it is worth $600 and the Sport doesn't look like it is worth $400.

I couldn't agree more..I tried telling my sister this.

I turned off wifi and bluetooth and got this:

Can you still use your Watch for activity and stuff even if you restart it?

 

[born4sky]

Hmmm... Nobody got link bracelet? So far I didn't see a single picture of it.

 

[jsmith189]

Can you still use your Watch for activity and stuff even if you restart it?

I'm pretty sure you can to an extent, but obviously without your phone it can't track distance and stuff because of the lack of GPS. I think you can sync back basic details (calories, heart rate etc) when you get back to your phone.

 

[tigercraig]

And it's about "time" too

The sports model with the colored bands look cheap as ever. Definitely the 5c of the watches.

 

[tigercraig]

One thing the reviews are correct about is the learning curve.... Anybody that is slightly technically challenged will have a hard time.

 

[BMox81]

It's a ridiculously amazing bit of kit. Really pleased with it.

Everyone at my work seems to be impressed with it as well.

 

[LordQ]

My SS with black sports band arrived today in Germany. Like it a lot, except the band - waiting for my steel Link band, which is more in style with my mechanical watch. Otherwise cool so far.

After looking at the Rolex I figured something: The watch hands are pointy but on every (?) Apple Watch face they are rounded, does that bug you or give you a sense of innacurate time?

I don't recall seeing anyone even mention a link with a 4/25-5/8 Window

I can tell you that being an owner of a 38mm Sport w/Blue band, cheap is the last thing I would ever call this.

 

[DononyG2]

There's not a single Apple Watch that looks decent in my opinion. The Sport versions looks really cheap, yet the high end gold models look ridiculous and tacky. There's no middle ground.

Clearly you haven't been to an Apple store to see them, or tried them on? I think the Sport looks a little cheap but the other two are promising for sure.

Does the band look/feel cheap?

 

[kwjohns]

Here it is! Don't know where to start!

You can start by scheduling an appointment with Siri to come decorate my house! Looks so lovely and modern from what little I can see. Haha

 

[XCALI3UR]

Awesome! Glad to see some people are filled with excitement of getting their watches when apple promised. Although, for us 42 mm SS with SS LINK we will wait another 4-6 weeks ...

Apple sucks monkey balls right now ... Just saying !

Of course you wouldn't...

 

[MICHAELSD]

Once you see the Sport in person, it's surprising how high quality it looks.

That looks fantastic, as does the background. Be sure to post it in the Women Wearing Apple Watch thread!
