I haven't tried the SS model on yet, but man does it look nice. I made the mistake of judging it based on the renders from Apple's website. Very foolish- it's very nice looking in person. On one hand, I'm glad I didn't spend ~$600 on a first gen watch, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a bit jealous of those who did.

Once you try on the stainless model, it feels really premium and I think most seem to like the additional weight once you adjust. But overall, yes it's pricey. But with the Sapphire and stainless, it offers a really nice appeal and is aesthetically pleasing.
 
I got a Series 2 space grey sport for Christmas with the black sports band. Also got the JETech black stainless link band. So far I'm loving it. I ordered An Orzly Duostand as well as a Spigen Rugged Armour case off Amazon. I also picked up a Casemate band but I'm not thrilled with it. I like the look of the bands from Monowear so may order a few from them...
 
I feel the Target promotion (BF and week before Christmas) convinced a lot of people to give them as gifts. I couldn't find anymore in my town after I picked up my Gfs watch.

I had purchased an Apple Watch earlier this year but I could never get into wearing it over my standard watches. Fast forward to this Christmas and I was absolutely delighted to receive a new one this Christmas. I feel like the new Watch OS has really improved the experience.
 
Actually, no one said you went to an Apple Store. I said you could compare them at an Apple Store and not waste everyone's time and resources.

How could that be wasting everyone's time and resources when employees are paid to do so in assisting in choosing the most appropriate model for the customer? Not quite.
 
bought myself a series 1 space grey. I like it more than I thought I would. Really liking the fitness and health benefits.
