From the Apple website:

"You can match most bands with any Apple Watch Series 3 or newer case of the same size. The 41mm bands work with 38mm and 40mm cases; the 45mm bands work with 42mm and 44mm cases.
The Solo Loop and Braided Solo Loop bands are only compatible with Apple Watch SE and Apple Watch Series 4 or newer. The 40mm and 41mm cases work with band sizes 1–9; the 44mm and 45mm cases works with band sizes 4–12."
Right I know this ☺️ But If I went with a 45 all my 40 mm won’t work. So yeah my collection will have to be sold off.
Polled the audience at work. They seem to think 41 for me

I’m super pumped to get my first Apple Watch.

Was a little bummed out this year to be left out of the preorder fun for the iPhone but now I’m ready to jump on the preorder train. Gonna have to set my alarm early Friday so Hopefully I can get one of the initial units so I don’t have to wait for Nov/Dec delivery🤞

I’m hoping Apple lets us add them to our cart earlier this week and that there aren’t any issues preordering with the Apple Card this time.
Welcome! Glad you are joining us.

Oh no! Did you not order the iPhone during the pre-order date?

Dang! My Series 4 is at 89% lol
My S4‘s battery health is at 93%. Surprisingly, because I am wearing it permanently to monitor health parameters and am charging it right before bed (while reading around here LOL). I also use all kind of apps all day long. Not LTE but I was expecting some more wear and tear. It’s also looking great, no scratches. I wouldn’t trade it in though, it was a bday gift from my babies ?

Glad to see the Oct 8 preorder date got confirmed. I was looking to upgrade my current S5 GPS to a cellular model, so it only makes sense to get the S7, especially with the $100 off promo. I was originally going to trade in my S5, but I think I'll keep it for workouts and maybe sleep tracking. I currently have 84% battery health with my AC+ set to run out in December, so I'm going to try and get it down to 80 and then get the battery replaced under my coverage.

I often use my 40mm bands on my 44mm watch. They do fit if you don't mind the look of it. I quite enjoy the look of a smaller band on a bigger watch. :)

Looking forward to the regulars contributors joining in!!! Welcome Aboard!!!

I plan on pre-ordering the Apple Watch Series 7. Preferably Space Black Titanium version.

Please share your thoughts on which Apple Watch Series 7 model you plan on pre-ordering? What color? What size? What case material? What case finish?

Are you going to upgrade your Apple Watch this year?

-This thread will continue to get updated periodically.
I’ve used Apple products exclusively for 32 years And would never spend my money on anything else. I’ve looked forward to an Apple Watch for years and will be ordering mine promptly at 8 am EST on Friday. I haven‘t decided on any feature yet except the 45 mm screen size And I will definitely buy Apple Care. As a senior I need all the screen space I can get! It might look a little large on a woman but I don’t care. I’m nervous about having it shipped because FedEx is the worst carrier on earth and I can take that chance so I’ll probably pick It up at the store. I live alone and the health features in this product make it a must have. Every senior should have one and Medicare should cover the cost. It would save them $$$ in the long run.

What promo are you referring to?

I am most likely going to upgrade from the S6 to the S7. I have blue now but probably going to go with stainless. Does anyone know when the trade-in value of the S6 will be posted? Also, is there going to be a pre pre-order setup like the iPhone 13?
