Upgraded from a 42mm AW3 SBSS. I did a year with the AW5 Ti, but I don't remember it as particularly large. I have large hands/wrists and the AW3 always looked too small. Just got home from picking up a 45mm SS 7 and I cannot believe how huge the screen and watch are, I love it. I feel like this is the first "real" smartwatch that truly looks like one.

Might be too big for my wrists to be honest.
But i ordered both, because my taste has changed over time and 40mm started to look small on my wrist.
Hopefully i can keep the bigger one.
 
I completely agree. It's big in a good way. My Series 6 44mm Titanium now looks like a toy next to the Series 7.
I’m interested to know why it looks like a toy if the case size is the same ? …. Are you just saying the screen makes it appear larger or it’s physically larger ?

Yes, because of the display size mostly. I can tell that the physical size of the watch case is bigger, but not much. The display size of the 44mm series 6 makes it look like the smaller 38mm/40mm model.

On a related topic ….. has anyone had any issues with sizes of solo loops or braided loops moving them from S6 to S7 ?
