Do you plan on ordering the new Apple Watch Series 7 (2021) this September?

Why are you sending it back? I think the red looks really nice.
I picked up a 45mm graphite stainless steel as well and if I absolutely loved the product red watch I’d have kept it but I already have a gold stainless steel series 6 and really don’t need 3 apple watches.

the red watch does look nice but honestly to convince myself to keep 3 apple watches I think I needed to be head over heels in love with it lol

oh and plus the braided solo loop is a size too big (my bad) so that didn’t help lol

Product red watch came in. Packaging is pretty dope but I wish the braided loop color matched the Watch.

meh….this one’s going back. Wallet saved lol

Thank you! You helped me made up my mind regarding red vs green! Been on the fence since preorder whether to get red, green, or blue. Then blue is out of stock everywhere, and I saw the reviews and really like the green, oh and it’s available for pickup in a few hours!

That make sense. 3 watches is a bit much.
 
Finally it's here
I ordered a 41mm titanium with a Green Mallard sport band

Coming from Garmin, their customer service is 🤮 so I decided to switch
Apple Watch hardware is clearly at another level

This band is a stunning colour. I really want one, it’s such a tragedy that Apple discontinued it right after pre order. No where in the UK seems to have them either.
 
Picked up my 45mm SSG today, they let me swap out the band to the midnight one which is what I’d wanted rather than the abyss blue. Was a bit of a faff, employee got confused and ended up doing a return and swapping out the whole order but I was in and out in 30 mins. Just going to set it up now as baby is finally asleep. Nice to see everyones watches & hopefully those waiting don’t have to wait much longer 😊
 
So after nearly 2 hours the UPS truck has finally moved on the map. It was sitting on the side of the highway the whole time so not sure if it broke down or if the map just wasn’t updating properly. I was getting nervous for awhile.

Thanks. The truck is about 2 miles from my house now 😀
Alright something really screwing is going on with the UPS truck. It has been stuck 2 miles from my house for over an hour now. It was supposed to be delivered an hour ago. This is apparently the second time it has gotten "stuck."

It’s quite a shame that they didn’t allow us to preconfigure the Watch for that :/

I’ve been lurking on that combination particularly since the keynote

I hope you’ll find a second hand one

Mine stayed at the post office for a full hour - I'm wondering if it was his lunch break or something. Good luck!

Loving the Midnight!
 
I am really liking the screen size of the 45mm. I am also liking the Graphite color more and more. I like the shine it has when out in the sun. Other than the original black stainless original watch, I have had all aluminum. I am liking the SS and I don't think I will be going back to aluminum any time soon, unless there is some awesome color.

same. Now that I’m bout that SS life I can’t go back to aluminum. I was originally going to grab a silver SS but I’m super glad I went with the graphite. Looks amazing.
 
My order is not due until 27th - 29th Oct, but is already preparing to ship - could it arrive sooner?
Possibly mine over lapping yours. 26-28th. Also preparing to ship since yesterday morning. Also got a temporary charge on card account now gone.

Same. Always had aluminum but decided to go with SS this time. I originally wanted the silver stainless but went with graphite because it was available this morning and I’m very happy I went with the darker SS. It is really beautiful.

Oh my!! I absolutely looove the Mallard Green!! It was available in the Apple store online under Accessories and I though oh well, let's get the watch first, then see how it would work with that color. Although I could've ordered it for my S4. And now... gone!! 😭
