Space Black owners thread.

I looked around for a little, but I've been using Sleep Pulse 2. I can post some screens if you'd like.

Sure! I was using an UP3 for sleep tracking until it died. It seemed pretty accurate, not just detecting when you are lying down, but when you are actually asleep. I am now using a Fitbit and I think it's probably less accurate. I wonder how well the Sleep Pulse 2 app does at detecting when you're really asleep.

I think the black Milanese loop matches the SS rather well. Better than the silver version on the SB watch. The black loop is accented by the black ceramic on the Digital Crown and by the screen itself. Looks great!

That looks really good! So much better than I thought it would

Watch app has just 3 screens.

iPhone app here.

I'm new to the whole sleep tracking thing, so I don't yet understand what light sleep or deep sleep really are, but as for what I can say about this app, I think it's pretty much got things exactly right when it comes to tracking how long it is until I fall asleep, and when I'm waking back up.

I usually turn it on and read something for a few minutes before I go to sleep. I can just about always go to sleep right away. I can remember around how long I was looking at something before I go to sleep, because I'm usually looking at something on the computer, so I glance at the time before turning it off. This is how I inadvertently found out how accurate that feature of the app is.

I was also pleasantly surprised to find out that I checked the report one morning after I turned off the app, and the app knew that I woke up during the sleep period.

iPad Pro AND Surface Pro 4?!

Damn those black Milanese look sweet! The black nylon is really not bad as well

 

[MartyCan]

I had the same idea, but didn't see an app that seemed to be very good. Which one are you looking at?

Haven't found one yet but I see suggestions are being posted. I thought it had some of that in the built in health app actually.

 

[hovscorpion12]

AND[/B] Surface Pro 4?!

Yeah. My company uses Windows. I didn't want to buy a whole new laptop (even though it would have been cheaper) so I settled for a Surface Pro 4

No Mac computer? Parallels Desktop is $49 and I run Windows on my rMBP.

Oh. Fine choice.

Thanks, I just used it last night and it seemed to work well. I just charge the Watch from about 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm, then put it back on, and charge again in the morning while I shower. Seems to be enough charging to allow me to wear it at night.

This is what I tend to do. Except I'll put it on airplane mode at night and it survives.
[doublepost=1458923753][/doublepost]Watch out, everyone. I just saw a post by somebody who bought the black Milanese for their Space Black. Said it has scratched up his watch. Both the sapphire screen and the coating on the bottom.

Replaced my Mac completely with my iPad Pro. I put my Retina MacBook Pro on a two month test in its original box turned off. Never needed it once. At the time I sold it, my company was using all iMacs/iOS (no problem). The company I work for now is solely Windows XP. . (Not even W7)

 

[dannyyankou]

I love my space black Milanese loop!

 

[danmart]

I've also taken the plunge:

Very nice, extremely comfortable and noticably lighter than the link.

I'll keep an eye on the scratch thing!

 

[Branskins]

The top and bottom of my case has micro scratches under direct light anyways so I'm already over that! And my loop will never touch the top of the screen so I'm not worried about that either.

However, what makes me feel better in all of this (I.e. If a bad scratch does happen) is that I can upgrade in the future while keeping my bands. I know that's horrible environment wise, but it helps my OCD for sure

They look so awesome in black. Always thought they looked a bit on the feminin side in the original steel version, but this is just bad ass

I agree, but get ready for the people who will inevitably call you sexist.

Naahh come on - small and thin watches also look a bit feminin to my eyes, but because they look more like watches made for women.

The same with the Milanese strap in steel might look more like women's watch straps from other watches I've seen. Nothing sexist about it.

Not saying you're sexist, just that people are too sensitive and criticize comments like that. Like people who try to be social justice warriors online. It's annoying.

So it is highly possible that the SB Milanese Loop *can* scratch your sapphire as I found a few micro scratches. Now it doesn't make sense that it happened so fast so maybe it didn't, but because it is DLC and is tough like diamond, it is strong enough to scratch sapphire.

Having thought about it, it makes sense, so just don't let the band bunch up and touch the sapphire

This is really unacceptable. $200 for a band that you have to be careful with or it will damage your watch?

 

[SilentDoom]

Can't have your cake and eat it too, I guess. We all wanted strong finishes, then we're mad if it's crazy strong! Lol. I'm loving mine! I think the color is perfect! Shiny black.

 

[Branskins]

I mean what are they supposed to do? A good DLC coating is diamond like. If they go cheap, then the band rubs off easier. Put a good coating and it can be as strong as diamond which means it can cut sapphire.

Now this is just from my reasoning and I could be wrong. But if it's even close to being hard as diamond then it makes sense.

This isn't a problem with the link bracelet because it's too stiff to get close to the screen. The Milanese loop is much different and has the potential to touch the screen.

By the way, I was out in the sun today and the SB Milanese loop shined beautifully

 

[vincenz]

Anyone try the gold/navy nylon band on space black? How's the color combo?
[doublepost=1459037636][/doublepost]Got a black nylon. These bands look better in person than online. The nylon fabric has a slight luster to it and light plays off it in interesting ways. Had to get 2 replacements before finding a set that fit without issues. Obligatory steering wheel shots incoming.
