blue got 3 weeks ago and returned.
got the Nike space grey , obsidian mist yesterday.
Got the Inverness green braided band this afternoon.
measurement tool said 7, ordered 6.
Wanted to test 5,6 and 7 in the store while picking up. Tried 6 first was good fit and tight enough, 7 was slightly loose but not loose enough to move, so could have gone with 7 but walked out with 6. Didn’t try 5 it would have been very tight in my wrist.
Anyone have a blue watch with the charcoal sport loop? Could you put up some pictures please. 📸⌚Still waiting on watch and band to arrive. 👀⌚
I liked the colour first and got it but after wearing it for 2 days didn’t like it much ( felt like a toy watch ). I had a series 4 space grey and have lot of bands that match space grey and some of those didn’t match blue.
Not what I want to hear, I’ve got a blue watch on order. 😂

I’m not in the market for a new AW at all yet, but this is the kinda feeling I get when I look at the blue watch.
Seems a bit gimmicky.
Looks fine if you’re using it for fitness etc I’d say but if you’re using an AW as your sole day to day watch like I do, it doesn’t really work.
I recently ordered a braided loop in size 9 which was despatched and delivered within a week (despite tracking saying November). The 9 was way too big so I have an 8 on order.
I went into the Apple store MK yesterday, as they had 7’s in stock. He couldn’t let me try it on but tried my size and I was low end of an 8. He suggested I buy it and return it if it wasn’t right. So I did and I did. It was way too tight (for how I like to wear them anyway) so returned it 10 minutes later.
Just hoping the 8 is ok.

I was at the Apple Store this afternoon looking at this exact combo. I've been considering the Graphite SS but the more I look at the Blue Aluminum, the more I like it. It's actually quite striking and looks really good with the charcoal sport loop. Unfortunately (or fortunately!) it was sold out otherwise I might have walked out with one.
Hopefully yours arrives soon. Great choice!
44mm Alu Series 4 with blue Braided Solo Loop.
I got a third party leather band for my 40 mm: size, thinness and magnet strength are not an issue. I think apple's decision relate more to an I'll designed exclusivity attempt.
Nice taste, have my blue 44mm with deep navy sport band arriving soon, ended up ordering the charcoal sport loop as well, glad I did looks stunning, band should be here this week😊 but not the watch 🥺😂
Thanks for the pics.
Gotta say the space gray with that band is a YUUUUUGE improvement over the blue.

I’m debating returning my OEM charcoal
braided loop to Apple tomorrow. I have until Tuesday.

Such a cheap band on such an expensive watch. Shame.
Its called I just came from the gym and didn’t need to have my 20 plus expensive bands on at a gym.
I haven’t worn the braided loop since getting it. I tend to use my custom bands I had made. Plus I am worried of the band getting loose or snagged.
Try having a red one! No offence to anyone that bought the red, but there’s no way I could wear that every day. It’s way too “in your face”
I always think that watches should be understated, that goes for my mechanicals and my AW.
