I agree, I think the graphite SS looks good but coming from an aw5 SB SS and having ordered the aw6 graphite SS I don’t know what to think. I’ll have to see it in person, I really love the SB but didn’t want to spend all that extra for SB Hermès.

Hermes is not worth it at all. I have trouble with Titanium as well because I have purchased watched made of that for WAY less. I have meteorite watches that even cost less.

I would have considered Ceramic this time but now its gone. Perhaps blued steel?

I agree, to be honest I was going to buy the ceramic this time but to my surprise they didn’t make it.
 
Photo in the sun to show blue casing with Atlantic Blue Solo Loop. Great color!

Thanks. Still have to see graphite up close. With SB, the screen blends in seamlessly. I also like the white band black watch contrast that I think will be lost.

I just got my graphite coming from SB. I was a bit tired of SB because I felt I was limited band wise. In pictures and in sunlight the graphite is closer to SS. Its even hard to photograph and not have it look silver. I love it. it feels richer somehow and changes a bit given the lighting.
 
Oh god I’m in love with the graphite SS S6! Just got it yesterday, coming from “regular” Ti S5. Missed the shiny dark side 🌚 and this one looks much much much better than the old SB SS. I used to have one (S4) and really love the slightly clearer tone, it’s like... mercury?

This pic has me even more excited to get my watch on Monday. I really dig that new watch face. I too am getting the Graphite. Are you worried the band will scratch your watch?

I have the red Apple Watch that I posted a picture of, and I’m not sure I’m loving it. Made an appt at my local Apple store to check out the gold aluminum, to see if I like it better.
 
Maybe with a different color band? IMO, I feel like it's just too much black-on-black-with-a-hint-of-black-garnished-with-black. 🤷🏼‍♂️😄 But, hey, you do you!
Got the Product RED. Comparison with the last version.

Yea, but you should have looped over last year’s product red to show the two-toned color. I have that watch band and it’s one of my favorites.
 
I bought the same one!

1. Yes, you can.
2. No, you can’t until Spotify launches an app than can storage music offline. You definitely can do it with Apple Music and there is no limit.
I also got the same watch, but mine is coming Oct. 1-5. 😔.

I used Apple Pay in Target yesterday for some lip gloss. I ran up there to get a flu shot and forgot my iPhone. Apple Pay was perfect without the phone.
 
Could your band be upside down? I only ask because I’ve done that before and it slides right through.
Yes indeed I put the band in upside down! Hence the sliding. :) But once I reversed that I still found the gap between lug and Watch unacceptable.
 
So I took the graphite back and went gold ss. I’ve put my blue band on temporarily because they ran out of black. I got green but not sure I like it so will probably do a band swap.

I LOVE the gold aluminum. I’ve had 3 of them and decided to get the blue this time. I definitely like the gold better, but since they changed the SS gold to a more yellow gold, I’m assuming they will do the same with the iPhone 12 Pro and I like my watch and phone to match and I don’t like yellow gold. Long story short, that’s why I’ll probably stick with the blue and get the blue phone this year. Good luck making your decision.

So now that the dust has settled a bit, I have three things I’d love to see if our new-for-2020 finish owners have the deep collection pulls. One is fairly easy, one is a rare band, and one is almost impossible...

1) Bright Crimson Nike Sport Loop on Red Aluminum
2) Obsidian (no mist)/Black Nike on GraphiteSS & Blue Aluminum
3) S0 Gold Modern Buckle (Rose Gray or Red) on 2020 GoldSS

I was thinking about the red for a second (I have a ProductRED 11), but it’s just a bit too much red for my tastes. I have an SS gold coming, and I like how the red cellular circle on the Digital Crown is an accent.
