I ordered the SS with Black plastic band. Today I was able to try on the Watch, and I really liked the Milanese Loop. It fit really well and very easy to put on and take off. I had difficulty putting on the plastic band. I will eventually drop my watch went putting it on. Maybe Apple will allow exchange. If they do, I am will to pay the difference.
The smaller Sports model with a white band. I do a lot of fitness activities and it looks just about perfect for what I am doing most of my day. I am very much looking forward to ditching my chest strap and having the HRM be in my wrist. I hope it works as I need.
I did the same (mostly for the ship date), and ordered a separate link bracelet, but have been seeing lots of love for the loop too. I am actually going to just keep the sport band as a "spare."
My choice, the Black Sports Watch with dark blue leather loop
42mm Apple Watch. I intend to swap out the black sport band with the dark blue leather loop when not in the gym.
It has been pre-ordered however not expected until 12th May. Despite ordering within a minute of Apple's website going live I have not been quoted launch day as my delivery day.

I'm going for the Space Gray 
Watch Sport. Still do doubt a little about the size I should take. Both 38mm and 42mm would fit fine, but I don't actually care about the size for daily usage, especially if the difference in pricing is $50. So I might go for the 38mm model eventually. 
Anyway, really looking forward to be able to pre-order the Watch here in the Netherlands. Can't come soon enough.

The next big thing is here and it ain't the S6. That came in third place behind the Apple Watch and Jordan Speith.

I ordered the Watch. I was going to get the Sport. But, After talking to the Apple rep I decided to go with the Watch because i'll want to change the band eventually. With the sport you can only swap out to other sport bands. If I want to go out somewhere nice, id like a nice band.
Im pretty sure that all of the bands work with sport, watch, and edition. They are all compatible with each other because they all use the same mechanism. You could use the leather band, milanese, or link band with the sport.
That's incorrect. You can use any band with the Sport Watch. They are all interchangeable. The Apple rep gave you bad information.
Many have confirmed that all bands work on all watches (as long as the watch is the same size).
I have ordered the Apple Watch Sport as well as the blue leather loop band. I will use that band most of the time when working (work at a big corporate office) and just normal day-to-day use. I'll use the black sport band when at the gym, hiking, etc.
That band does indeed look nice. Might buy it for my steel watch.

Launch day, if all goes well.
38mm Milanese loop, I will be getting the Midnight Blue modern Buckle when it is available as I liked it during the try-on.
