What’s it like on wrist? It looks very long and I only have 6.5” wrists...
It looks good. The longer band the better because you get more magnets thus making it highly secured.

My charcoal sport loop band aus post delivery nightmare will be over tomorrow thanks to apple 😊 the lovely lady over the phone offered a free replacement Tuesday morning, said keep the first one free of charge if it ever arrives 😂

sending it via tnt shipped Tuesday night arriving tomorrow 😊

Not looking forward to ordering my MagSafe charger and pro max navy silicone case on Friday, all apple accessories get delivered via aus post. 🥺
 
Bizarre post for a thread titled “Show off your Apple Watch.” Maybe if arm hair is so triggering for you, you shouldn’t read a thread asking people to show off their watches?

It's just ... the watches basically look all the same. Hundreds of pages of people showing the exact same product, not very interesting.

So what DOES stand out is the arms that are wearing them. So your attention is drawn to the arms/hands because THEY do all look somewhat different from each other. I know, most have the usual 5 knuckles and all, but they certainly have more variation than the watches. And you can't disagree: some of them look better than others. Really, I think they should re-name this thread 'show off your arm ... with an apple watch on it"

Whoever said these look like paper nailed it, although this one has more of a "rigid cardboard" look. I like the color combination though.

Nah, this makes no sense. There's a lot of variability between finish and band choices but to me, the allure of this thread is more in seeing people enjoying their watches. The number of people that say they're "in love" with it or call it sexy is almost disturbing but it really goes to show how much of an impact a small piece of tech can have on some people.

You also have to consider this is an enthusiasts forum. I bet if I really wanted to I could find a handful of forums that have people getting excited about and posting pictures of things much more mundane than a watch. Let people have their thing. If it isn't yours, move along.
 
I hope this is acceptable. I have very little arm hair. This is my new 6... I bought the band (it is real!) from ebay as I wanted

something bright, but not what was on offer this time. The one I got with it is 'Sunshine', blue with yellow edges (also an old strap, they just happened to have one when I asked for a yellow!), and lovely, too.
 
Gone with my first apple watch with a super cheap amazon silicon band which is very very nice actually
