My Series 8 Stainless on one of my magnetic leather link straps (…) The temptation to keep it for "smarter" days is strong.

Can anyone please post a photo of a modern buckle on wrist, please?

Also, what do you think of the strap?

Thanks.

Edit: Popped into an Apple Store today, and tried them on. Didn’t like them at all. They don’t look high quality, for the money.

I'd like to use faces with the date in the corner like that, but I wear the 41mm case and the text is so small.

Looks really nice on you, though.
The Date-in-the-Corner complication is a bit weird IMHO. I mean, why is it showing yesterday's and tomorrow's date?
For me, the date is hard to read as well - at least in the default red color. Hence I set my color to gray.
BTW, my SE is the 40mm model.

They could and should easily make it just today’s date, and bigger.

I don’t use so many watch faces because of that.

Does anyone have photos of the olive solo loop & BSL on wrist?

Also, the bright orange BSL?

Thanks.

Thanks, bud.

Would you go for olive, or bright orange (for silver SS)?

Have to order soon, to get for Wednesday.
Bright Orange all day…Olive is a rather derivative color.

Yes to the BSL if you like Inverness and it got stretched out.

Yes to the olive solo loop if you really like solo loops. Otherwise get Khaki sport band.

IMO 2023 Olive is a nice cool Star Wars/mandalorian green without a ton of color.

Put olive in the basket and it wouldn’t deliver until next week.

Bright orange will deliver on Wednesday.

Appreciate your help.

Edit: Decided to leave it. Would have been an impulse buy, as I don’t really love any of the colours.

As I wishcasted apple is doing another warm yellow/yellow orange for the fall/winter 2023 collection (based on the case leak), so there’s always something to look forward to there.
