Amazon had it on sale. Made the choice easier.Haha I already knew you switched back. I saw your post on the marketplace
Welcome back! And yes Graphite is the perfect middle for sure!
Towards the darker finish of the room it gives off a darker finish and towards the outdoor lighting it gives off a lighter finish due to its high reflection characteristics like Silver it picks up a lot of light. SBSS is so black that it doesn’t pick up light as much which keeps it looking dark all the time.
Aha, I can see it now in that top pic.Towards the darker finish of the room it gives off a darker finish and towards the outdoor lighting it gives off a lighter finish due to its high reflection characteristics like Silver it picks up a lot of light.

Managed to snag an in store pickup and exchanged it for a flawless new SBTi. Glad I didn’t have to send it in and wait x weeks
I’ve found myself with band envy occasionally after hanging out in the AW7 delivery thread. Found this OEM Apple Flash Sport Loop on eBay and it was delivered yesterday.
That’s great! Seems like once a week or so Titanium shipments arrive at some stores. I see them pop up in Atlanta about that often.
That’s great to hear. It looks even better than before without the two small nicks.
Looking good! Can’t wait till my SBTi arrives … in December.
Graphite SS is
Being a SBSS fan Graphite definitely satisfies and actually not even looking back. I love how it can go from really dark looking to lighter looking based on lighting. It’s like SBSS with more character. Oh and Midnight Leather Link.
The shine on this one really is pure 🔥!!
Loving the Nike sublimation even more with the full contrast of black.
Got my AW7 graphite delivered today. It’s a little heavier than the aluminum I’m use to but I think that’s a good thing.
Where did you get that band!? I love that color. Is it an Apple band, or third party?
I have to say that I would hesitate to use something as coarse as one of those scrubber pads. In traditional woodworking with finishes one buffs a surface with an extremely soft cloth to create a luster. I learned the technique when I took an art class working with natural materials. I was surprised by the pronounced effect which a soft cloth can have on a hard surface. Not sure whether this would apply to this alloy, but since it seems to scratch so easily, I would test it with a kind of chamois cloth. There won’t be any danger of scratches to your screen, and pro (maybe) less wear of the coating.

That Is the graphite? wow, it looks so bright! It really is amazing how this finish can reflect light and appear bright/light or dark, depending upon the ambient light. That seems like it could dress up or down nicely. 😀 There’s a stone, hematite, which is a metallic silvery-grey, and reminds me a lot of this color (at least in photos—I haven’t gone to see the watches in person yet). Just ordered my stainless steel silver Oct 25 or so. Now, I have to wait until mid-December for delivery. Sad face.Graphite SS is

The SB TI looks excellent with the SB stainless link band! Have you had the band for a while, or did you just get it for this watch? I’ve always wondered how well the finish will hold up against friction on the underside where you (I) rest your arms against a desk or table. On the silver link band, you can’t really see the scratches (or you could polish them out); but you don’t have to worry about revealing a different undercolor.
I only wear/collect genuine Apple bands
Ultra Violet was sold in fall of 2017, is now quite hard to find and therefore also quite expensive now. It‘s really unique in color ;-)
Got it from a fellow band nerd for a reasonable price, I was looking for one for quite a while.
Awkward wrist position, but trying to get some color to show up. My new 45mm green aluminum gps+lte. Upgraded from series 2 stainless. Put on the full body armorsuit before I even activated the thing. Waited about a day for it to dry. All ready to go.

41mm, Starlight, Graphite Milanese Loop. Love it ✪
OK so I couldn’t resist and bought myself another Watch, priced really nice and might serve me well as beater. Case needs some polishing but otherwise it‘s pristine - looks worse due to the lighting though.
Could anyone help out to verify if this would fit the 40MM Apple Watch SE I just got?
