Show off your Apple Watch

[mikedis]

That's a nice, understandable but expensive quest! I hope nobody gets this wrong: I love my graphite watch! It's really nice that it changes color very subtle depending on the environmental lighting. But for me, silver is matching almost every band/watch face (except maybe silver watch – graphite Milanese). I kinda regret having chosen a space Gray iPhone earlier this year – next time everything silver/white 🙌 → so maybe ceramic white when it comes back? 🤔

It's actually cheaper than you'd think. I just wait for the devices to be a few generations old, then buy them used on eBay. I've got 5 so far that I've bought in the $150 range.

I sense a theme... is your favorite color red?

Haha. Actually I guess it’s Kelly green. And dragonfruit. But I love really saturated and vibrant color of all types. No neutrals for me.

That's fair! I started the day with Red BSL (1st gen) just because that's what I went to sleep in, but I think today I'm going to wear my Raspberry Classic Deployment. pics soon!

Yea Apple isn’t going to give an update to add the date in there. This is the face.

I mean if you turn the crown and make the numerals max size, is there even room?

I started the day with red braided solo and a portrait of my Golden retriever as the face!

Such a lovely (non reflective) rainbow pinstripe. Best Pride band of the past half decade?

I’ve never used the portrait face, mostly because I’ve never taken a portrait photo. Im excited to see how the new wallpapers on iOS 16 wrap around the clock, though.

I will take a pic later so you can admire how cute he is.

Good point when max sized

Somehow totally missed this one in the Pride Gallery until today. I dig it for after work hours when I don't really need complications.

I don’t know the description explicitly mentions reflective rainbow threads. They even left it in there on nike shop for 2022 loop

Nike doesn't know what they're talking about. It has rainbow threads and reflective threads, but not reflective rainbow threads.

But this was the Apple copy in 2021

It was such a relief on Monday when they announced pet portraits for watch and I subsequently tried a human one on os8 and saw there’s a whole button they provide that wasn’t there for pet portraits.

Thought I was going crazy before.

I've proven to you the rainbow does not, in fact, reflect. I don't know what you want from me. Apple lied to us all.

I can’t remember if I’ve asked this before (getting old!) but..do you all match your Apple Watch Strap colour with your iPhone case colour? I always seem too, like brown leather to brown leather, black and black, blue and blue etc…

I go without a case. Wish there was a Space Black iPhone to match the Watch, even if it took an Hermès Edition to get it 😂

Actually, an Hermès Edition Space Black iPhone with an updated MagSafe Leather Sleeve in Noir sounds kinda nice. And the iOS 16 Lock Screen would allow for exclusive screens and clock fonts 👀

Don't give them any ideas!

I’ll do whatever it takes to get a Space Black iPhone! 😂

Love your face but cannot seem to find it with my series 7? Is this face something you made or perhaps only available with certain series? Would love to add to my watch. Thanks
