Is that band magnetic? And if so does it mess with the compass?
Like the looks of it
got the ultra a few months ago, came across an S8 graphite and now I'm struggling 
7.3 inch wrist, 185mm - so I think I'm right in that goldilocks zone where almost everything works, but maybe not?
pics of the ultra on the sport band (my favorite bands are the sport bands).
Is the ultra too big? The S8 stainless 45mm looks significantly smaller on the wrist

The distance between camera and Watch is too small to judge (making the Watch look bigger than it does IRL). Maybe take a picture in front of a mirror.
Thank you for the reply and advice. Attached pics (and these are the last for this thread!)
The S8 graphite that I tried on honestly felt like it was half the size of the Ultra, and I'm not sure if it was just because I wasn't used to it and if that kinda goes away over time

I ordered a frozen matte paint to match the ultra. I tried to get it perfect but not quite.
One of my favourite faces.
Only problem is it shows how inactive I am.
I’ve finally done it.
Tomorrow I have an Ultra being delivered!
So here’s a snap of my 3 year old S5 44mm aluminium.
If you look closely around the 38 minute marker and between 10/11 you can see a couple of little marks. I’d say it’s held up rather well considering some of the others I’ve seen.

Honestly, the Ultra size is perfect for you!
Also, you‘ll get used to it in no time. Some other poster nailed it a while ago: after you‘ve worn the Ultra for a while, putting on the regular Watch feels like a mixture between jewellery and toy.
In all seriousness, are you into fitness?
I started doing a daily walk, when I got my Apple Watch, but that didn’t last long.
Thinking of buying a mountain bike, as riding a bike is more fun than walking, in my opinion.
At the moment, I’m completely sedentary.
Well, I’m glad I made the upgrade.
It’s been on my wrist for 2.5 hours now and it’s amazing.
I have changed the face to wayfinder since this picture though

Not much. I'll sometimes do a mile or two walk, but most of my activity comes from my job. Usually juuust enough to close my rings.
Not sure what the point of having Apple Watch, if not using for activity tracking.
