I totally love the pacific blue iPhone 12 Pro Max - but unfortunately the Apple Watch is not available in pacific blue. The graphite phone has a graphite watch, the gold has a gold watch, and the silver has a silver watch. But, unfortunately the pacific blue has no matching color.
I assume the silver stainless steel watch would pair up fine with the blue phone. Am I right?
But, my problem is that I have already bought the blue aluminum watch (because I thought they would work well together, and despite the different shades of blue, they kinda do), and I’ve also bought the graphite stainless steel to go along with my graphite iPhone. But I’m thinking about switching back to my pacific blue phone for the summer. And I think my wife would kill me if I bought yet another watch.
So, which watch should I go with? The blue or the graphite?
I think both works well with the pb phone, and I really love the premium feel of the stainless steel watch. But, not sure if the blue watch looks better for “summer wear”… what would you guys have picked? Or should I sell both watches and go for a silver stainless steel?
I know it’s down to my own preference, but would love to hear your opinions.
 
my opinion is that it doesn't matter. Do you also choose your T-shirt or shoes color to match your phone?

What’s wrong with the SS graphite watch with a blue band? in other words, have various bands to match each iPhone, etc rather than worry about the entire watch.

I don’t get why these devices have to have a matching colour, it’s not as if I’d hold them in close proximity of one another.

Take a black or steel one and maybe find a nice matching band.
 
Of course there are worse things to worry about in the world (and my life) right now.. but sometimes it helps to move the focus to something completely different… and I’m also curious to hear what watch color other people chose to go along with the pacific blue phone… just a lighthearted thread in a serious world.. nothing more…
 
I think blue and gold work really well ^^

So it seems you need to get a new Apple Watch anyway

Hahaha 😂😂 just when I had tried to convince myself that I don’t need a silver watch, you throw in the gold option 😂🙈
Apple really need to start a “buy 2 watches and get the third for free” campaign 😂
But I have to admit that it looks beautiful in your picture. Does it look good with the pacific blue phone as well?

What you want is the Baltic blue leather link band. It’s the exact same blue as the Pacific iPhone. Looks great on the stainless steel.
