So which one pushes the number right to the edge of the screen? 🤔😂
You should move into Las Vegas. You’ll make good $$Years of playing "Spot the Difference Between These 2 Pictures" game.
Okay... So here's the deal. Officially, most of the watches are digitial tied (in Apple's inventory) to a specific watch, so they won't let you swap them. I used to work at Apple, and I happened to get a very nice guy, who went through about 5 hoops and a manager's approval to let me swap the band. My hunch is that the orders made with the configurator might be swappable.
I'm the last person who should move to Vegas...I really dislike gambling.
why do you think is confusing? I never had an Apple watch and I'm contemplating to get one
The screen is gorgeous, you can easily tell that it’s bigger than the series 6. 👌
I’ll send mine over to you on Monday, mail service is closed on weekends. 😂
Dang it by that time I should have my UPS scan 😂 I’m still stuck waiting for it over the weekend. Can’t win!
Yep, he has a good eye, still not seeing it. 😂
Finally arrived and setting up! It's SO beautiful, nice upgrade screenwise for me from the 4, and I get the cool compass / O2 sensors, AOD, etc. Loving it (except it's charging and updating to 8.0.1 now haha)
8.0.1 updated so much faster on this S7 than it did on my S4, so that's nice too.

I originally ordered a Starlight watch last Friday because SS was already showing delivery dates in mid November. Much to my surprise, I was able to score an in-store pickup for today for a graphite SS. I've had the Apple Watch since it first came out in 2015 but this is my first SS watch and I'm loving it!
I bought it with the graphite Milanese loop but it also pairs beautifully with my Nike Pride sport band.

This is awesome, they have every watch band color since 2015, for your watch face, nobody pays attention to detail like apple.
That’s pretty impressive. Attention to details. Never knew this was existed. Apple Watch for the win 🥇
Ok, you win! Best picture in this thread, so far. 😂
Anyone know what time Apple refreshes their inventory for in-store pickups?
It's here!! Playing around with different faces right now. I am coning from a series 3. I love the larger real estate. Much easier for these old eyes to read.
Ahhh! It’s Gorgeous. Congratulations. I hope you enjoy your Apple Watch.
Got my Graphite Stainless Steel that I ordered for in-store pick up this morning and also picked up my wife’s Starlight. I’m loving the combo with the graphite and the Nike band. I’m going to sell the Abyss Blue Sport Band as I hate that kind of band.
Got my new green baby. This green is awesome. It’s subtle enough that it looks near black in some lighting. But, the tinge of deep green looks so nice. It’s far more neutral because of this than people may suspect from the Apple website pictures.
Unfortunately, I had my first bad Apple store experience. I will get over it, of course, but it did kinda sour the experience of picking up my first Apple Watch since the S4. Not happy about that part. For anyone who feels like reading it, below is what happened. Otherwise, scroll down past it for pictures of the green Apple Watch Series 7 😀
Here’s my bad Apple Store experience:
When ordering online last week, I had a trade in. I chose Apple Card Monthly Installments along with store pick up and store trade in because it looked like a very simple ordering option combo. With ACMI, I‘d get my trade in value off the price up front, and, according to my order details, all I needed to do was unpair/reset the old Watch and bring it in when I picked up my new Watch. As long as it was in the shape I stated, everything was done in one transaction. No box to send in. No refund to track. Easy peasy, right? Not so fast.
I get there and they bring me my new beauty. I’m thrilled about that. I’ve got my S4 all reset and ready to hand over. Suddenly, the girl helping me tells me they don’t have an option for it to work the way that my order states it should work. She even reads what my order says and seems a bit confused by it. She goes into all these convoluted ways she thinks we can do the trade in. Cancelling the trade in led to some messy sounding result, and she didn’t think it would work. So, she gets a manager to try to figure out how to do this. She seems just as confused after reading my order details.
At this point, my concern is that no matter what we do, something is going to get messed up accounting-wise. I mean, I don’t care how I pay, as long as nothing goes wonky with it. So, the manager thinks the easiest way is to do the trade in as its own transaction. I’ll get a refund to my card, and the Installments amount will adjust accordingly. Fine, I guess…as long as it really does work out that way.
We start the trade in. She asks to see my Watch app. She’s disappointed the Watch is no longer in the app, because she needs the Watch’s serial number. Well, of course it’s no longer in the app, because I unpaired it for trade in. But, I’m able to give her the serial number from the order email. However, she also needs the IMEI number. She asks me if I mind repairing the Watch to my phone so she can get that! I decline. They figure out how to look it up. This whole thing is like a 30 minute process of them trying to figure out what to do. In the end, they offer me a 10% off a band for the hassle. I know it sounds entitled of me, but that didn’t seem like much of an offer, so I passed.
At this point, my order shows as picked up and trade in complete. So, maybe it’ll be okay.
