I would love to see this on the graphite if anyone has that combo. I’m looking to spend another $50 from the already new bands I bought today haha
You get two of them for $11 dollars.

Why thanks we're all entitled to speak our own opinions no negative assumption on my end I actually prefer the bulky look of it and I was actually too excited to not buy a case for my watch it's okay
Wear your watch however you want 😉
Unfortunately, YES! I am the type of person who babys my tech and go to great lengths to ensure everything looks pristine. It's how I was brought up. That being said, this is atrocious! I've read reports that Apple might have made a typo when they stated the Graphite had the DLC coating, but might be PVD like the Gold SS. My SBSS S4 also had a few micro scratches but that was before I knew about the Milanese band issue and after 1 year of use. I was ABSOLUTELY careful beyond belief and necessary to make sure the band didn't touch the case. Yet, I already sea a few micro scratches after I cleaned my watch with a new, clean microfiber towel after 2 days...SMH!
The SBSS DLC seems to be thicker, although I have no way of measuring it. Being that the DLC is made of carbon and carbon is black, I am wondering if the DLC coating is thinner. The Graphite SS looks like they simply applied a thinner layer of DLC on a regular SS watch.
Now, I'm strongly considering on returning to Apple and either pick up a refurbished S5 to get the AOD feature or bite the bullet and get the SBTi for $100 more knowing that would be the cheapest option for a watch with DLC coating and sapphire display. Worse comes to worse, I just buy the Nike edition, pocket the difference and see what the S7 redesign brings.
Maybe it could be because of the lighting on the first pic but definitely silver. I believe there is no ceramic this year.
Your blue looks great.
Your blue looks great.
Despite the horror stories you might read here, the watch is extremely durable. My experience have all previous series, is that I have never noticed any damage to the casing. Enjoy your watch
Thanks. I appreciate the input.
I had a SB SS series 5 previously and it held up very well without any protection. I noticed a few very tiny marks when I went to sell but otherwise, it wasn’t noticeable in normal viewing. Who knows, I may end up ditching the cover in the coming weeks.
Sports loop, yes. I prefer it to the black I started with.
Looks really nice. I’ve got quite a few OEM sport bands but the most I’ve paid is £25. I just can’t bring myself to pay £49 even though I like the look of it lol.
Congratulations on closing all your rings too. Love the fitness side of this watch.

Maybe someone can help me
I have a series 3 watch and realise I’m limited in what faces I can have due to that
im after some decent digital faces, but don’t really get on with any offered by the watch app
is there a simple and easy way to somehow add third party faces ?
thank you

Download the BuddyWatch app or go online to download compatible faces.
My first Apple Watch Graphite stainless steel with graphite milanese loop I LOVE IT!
No mucking around for a first Apple Watch 😂
If I wasn’t getting the blue watch, would of purchased the graphite model without hesitation, absolutely stunning watch 👌🤤
That band matches the watch perfectly as well.
