I currently own the AW Hermes Edition and I am looking forward to the release of watchOS 3 next Tuesday.

The Apple Watch Series 2 seems the AW I expected last year; true waterproof and GPS functionality for sports but the most interesting new feature - I have bad eyes - is its brighter screen.

With watchOS 3 being imminent, even the old AW could become faster, but I hope some screen comparison tests will be available soon. Remember DisplayMate's excellent test http://www.displaymate.com/Apple_Watch_ShootOut_2.htm

It is a pity both the aluminium and steel AW Series 2 come with white silicone bands, but that is probably because Apple wants us to buy more covers ;)
