That looks very sharp!
How do you get the correct size band?
I actually don't remember being given a choice...the order says "regular" ? ....but I have a local Apple store 20 minutes away if I need to switch it out...Thanks for the heads-up....
I'll most likely order a couple of knock off bands from eBay anyway...

Considering the gold aluminum, but I'm really curious if they fixed it and if it actually looks gold, or is it still that pinkish gold.
 
so the monthly payments with apple card/apple pay won't work if you use the veterans/military website even though it's right there on the watch page?
 
Was it the band of the watch that got sold out so fast?
Who knows— when I checked 10 minutes ago you could still order that band by itself (in the size I ordered, anyways) and get it this Friday. But yeah the delivery dates for that combo were 2-3 weeks later than with a sport loop when I was shopping earlier today.
 
My original apple watch is not working need a new watch (screen popped)

Waiting to see what Apple Watch 6 has to offer

Any of you guys interested?
I'm definitely interested but won't buy one until it doesn't require an iPhone. As soon as it supports connecting with an iPad, I'll be all over 2... one for me, and one for my wife.

No, I just upgraded from the Series 1 to the 3. I dont see upgrading to the 6 for probably another 2 years or so.
 
In the U.S., that band in 44MM has slipped to September 28th - October 1. It seems to be very popular.
Well, and it comes in 9 sizes, which could also significantly change overall availability

update: I think it must be the band, I can still spec the blue aluminum watch with other bands for 9/29 delivery

Upgrading from my S4, ordered GPS only 44mm Space Gray Aluminum Case with the solo black band.

Anybody doing a trade in? My estimate was $140

Thinking what my next watch will be. I've used an Apple Watch 3 and Samsung Gear S3 Frontier and the Apple watch always appeared more responsive for voice commands. (I set a lot of timers, alarms) One weakness is Apple Pay vs Samsung Pay. No one really has it for where I shop.
 
I did think about the smaller one, but based on the sizing I'm at the top end of the size. I think it will either be something I'll love or not. But I had decided not to upgrade my iPhone XS Max this year, so I thought I deserved it. The funds come out of Mrs AFB crafting supplies so its all good!
That’s cool. I’ve got skinny wrists and the 44mm on me basically covers the whole top of my wrist with no gap either side, so on me it looks stupid. There’s no difference though in use so as long as the size suits, you’re all good. :)
 
I was going to buy the SE if it was $199, but Apple decided to keep the peasants with the old inventory of S3.

In my country, the base S3 is already priced at ~$300. This new AW S6 will probably start at $500 here. That's just ridiculous.
