I'm curious as to how practical the stainless steel band will be when working out, running, etc.....

Apple seen to suggest it is an OK combo.

either the sport or the regular. i am interested in the white sport band for whichever i choose
 
So, what is everyone getting?

The time is almost here folks. What have y'all decided?

Edit: Damn, I wanted to make a poll, but I didn't see an option.
 
42 mm Stainless Steel for sure. Debating bands:

  1. Milanese Loop
  2. Steel Link Bracelet
  3. Still half considering the Space Black option.
 
2 Apple Watch Sport Space Gray 42 mm. One for me and the wife. I am beyond p'oed that she wants the same one I do. At first, I thought she was trolling me.
 
42mm space grey sport.

Not willing to shell out more right now because I'm an idiot and will undoubtedly want version two. If version two seems killer, I'll probably upgrade to a stainless model with a Milanese loop and black sport band.
 
Either 42mm SS with link or 42mm SS with sport (white/black) depending on shipping times. Gotta go into the store to try some other bands, the sport watch and 38 mm size.
 
Based on pictures I'll be getting the 42mm Stainless with the link band. I'll be going to the Apple Store to check it out in person before I preorder it. I'll probably also get a white sports band to use for exercise.
 
42mm Silver Aluminum case with green sport band will do it for me. Won't be for awhile though.
 
42 SS, but I'm torn between the black and stone leather loop bands. It's been ruining my week... I can't wait for Friday just so I can be done debating, but I'm guessing I won't be sure which band until I tap on one in the Store App at midnight.
 
42mm Sport with a Blue band and AC+

Also thinking about picking up a blue leather band to class it up for work and such.
 
42mm stainless steel with black leather loop and additional white sports band for sport/change of style.

Going to pre-order first thing Friday morning (08:01 GMT), and probably book an appointment just in case I hate it in person and need to rethink my choice.

i've narrowed it down to three choices:

1. 42mm with milanese loop
2. 38mm with modern buckle. my current watch is 39mm and looks fine on my wrist; i'm hoping 38mm will also look just fine. i'm more worried about screen legibility.
3. 42mm black stainless steel with link bracelet. it looks sharp, but it's quite pricey, especially for a first gen product.
 
I wish we could get more votes. I'm genuinely interested in the consensus here. My opinion: the Apple Watch looks like garbage. I was SO excited about it and just KNEW Apple was gonna design something that put all other smartwatches to shame. Unfortunately, this watch looks no different from all the others. The Moto 360 DESTROYS this design (I've never owned an Android phone and don't plan on it, for the record). I suspect when Apple saw it, they sh$t themselves! If only Motorola had spent a little more time on it (outdated hardware, poor battery life, no iPhone support), I'd buy it in a heartbeat. The Moto 360 is what I would expect Apple to design.

Damn that's a sexy watch!

Wow. That is a super sexy watch! I do love the round watch faces, but I do know square works better in terms of functionality.
