Nice. I considered an S5Ti but mainly wanted the last SpaceBlack before they shuffled it off to Hermes. That and AOD. Solid choice.
Yeah I'm disappointed it didn't at least make it to the S6, but I have a few too many S5 watches by now and don't have the desire to get any more. The SBTi will cover the black watch itch until a S7 Hermes comes up for yoink. I'm glad you got one though! SBSS rocks hard. If you have it, Pink Blast (loop) looks perfect on it!
Found out my trusty pen and Nike MN/MN are a perfect match
On the right wrist and upside down isnt very common around here!
I always wore watches on my right wrist it's such a pain to wear it the correct way I'm sure i will get used to it
but I notice when I do wear it on my dominated hand I am banging my watch against everything.
The only downside is i have to wear it slightly higher than normal so I don't accidently press the crown with my hand,
I can flip it so the crown is facing backwards but it's not comfortable to scroll!
I also wear mine on my dominant right wrist but I keep the crown top right. To be honest I rarely use it.
I press the crown now and then but very rarely scroll it, and pressing the crown I tend to do with my left thumb cupped underneath the watch and I find that works really well.

Lefty here as well who wears their watch on their right wrist. This sounds exactly like me. I used to wear it with the crown top right, but found that scrolling was a pain, so I swapped it to the same bottom left position as you. Much better, but I also have to wear it slightly higher so as not to accidentally push the crown with my hand/wrist.
Lefty problems!
i'm glad you replied to confirm I'm not the only one who wears it like this!Lefty here as well who wears their watch on their right wrist. This sounds exactly like me.

I tried the other orientations, left wrist, right wrist with crown up. etc but this 1 works best for me.
Lefty tip! to avoid accidental presses wrap the band around your wrist and bend your hand as far back as you can till you make contact with the crown then fasten the band snug this allows you to wear it as low as possible without accidental presses even when pressing your hand against something it doesn't press it! takes some time to get it just right.
Greetings fellow Lefties! I wear my watch on my right wrist also. I turned off the option for Siri to be activated by holding the crown and I don't regret it. That was really the only issue I've ever had with the crown. I mainly use "hey Siri" or raise to Siri...if I use Siri on my watch. I still keep the crown facing my fingers (bottom left) and don't have any issues now.
A band lost to time. You’ll have to settle for Red4 and Red5 which kinda skirt around the magnificence of Red Rasp
Taking inventory of all I got that's OEM
(apologies for the wear/dirt on one sport loop and one woven nylon you have to observe in particular, those got beaten up over the years as the main drivers)
most of the rest are tip top

It looks SOOO good with my abyss blue s7 but it’s my grail piece and blindingly bright , bright fares less well than dark with wear, so I use it sparingly
I’m really jealous one hasn’t appeared in 42mm. Though to be fair there’s probably only about 20 of them out there.
I thought it was a tough one to come by but didn’t realize this, was an eBay find a while back
I wish the woven loops came in this color instead of the current one we got
