Or finally catching up on her sleep 😴

Nah, she won't sleep until after the MBP's are delivered.

Hey, Another member of team Blue - Love it. I ordered whatever band I could to get a launch day watch, too. I got in through the veteran store around 0510PDT and still made it. Got this Deep Navy Sport Loop that I still have in the sealed box. Wondering how/if I can exchange just the band in store...seems hit or miss, but I was letting the initial craziness die down. Maybe this weekend I'll try. And of all things, the Deep Navy band isn't even an option to purchase separately anymore, nor can it be made in a style. Guess it got discontinued following pre-orders and i got one of the last in this combo.

I am super happy with the new Nike Sport Band in Midnight Navy/Mystic Navy.

Much better sport loop colour than mine. I went for whatever was on the front screen for preorders.
Might see if I can just return the strap, otherwise it will have to go on the bay.
Got another 2 straps coming tomorrow as well so will see what they’re like.

Waiting for my pre-order to arrive in the next few days. But, I went to the Apple Store just now, and yikes, I made a mistake. I pre-ordered starlight 41mm and I have 6.25” wrists (male), but at the store the 41mm looked too small and the starlight colour was not very appealing at all.

Pre-ordering wasn’t a good idea, I might have to order a 45mm midnight now and wait even longer…

My bands have arrived. I have to say, I am blown away by the quality/craftsmanship from Bandwerks! One of the best bands Ive ever purchased. I ordered on Sunday night got here today from Germany.

That sounds frustrating.

But you get to go through the excitement of ordering and arrival again!

Wow, no wonder you couldn’t sleep!

For all you watch band addicts out there ( Me included ..) check out : chargerstore , on eBay. It looks legit and he has wonderful comparison photos.

He's very legit, many of us collectors have spent lots of money with him. He's great.

Very nice collection! I love it. Congratulations!!

The parcel that seemed lost got a scan. 🤨 Let's hope for the best.
Maybe the fact that Apple filed a claim today helped.

Hoping and praying your Apple Watch arrives soon 🙏

I’m very happy to hear that ! Thank you 😊

Thank you for further confirming that. I’m excited! I’ve always been hesitant to order apple stuff on eBay because I felt like I was randomly choosing. So this is awesome!

Just applied a screen protector on mine - know many people don’t like them, but had scratches on my S-6 screen edge so back to a screen protector. Also, pic of S-7 with Baltic Blue Leather Link in case anyone wonders how it looks with the new blue.

Were you able to find a screen protector specifically for the 7? The ones I tried for my 4 didn't work when swimming, have you immersed this one? Waiting for my 7 and would like to put one on, I guess I bang into things too much.

GORGEOUS!

It’s so beautiful. In pristine condition. I love it. Congratulations and hope you enjoy your Apple Watch

The FedEx fiasco continues....I paid Hermes.com extra for 2 Day Air, and that should have been delivered yesterday, but instead they were busy zig-zagging my watch across the country. It finally arrived in my state yesterday afternoon, but they made no effort to get it to me. Finally this morning, it's out for delivery. At this point, I'll believe it when I see it.

Since we’re talking bands, anybody know of a good source for vegan/faux leather bands?

Hopefully you get it delivered today. Stay hopefully. Can’t wait till you post pictures of your Hermes watch

I’m considering cancelling now, cause that’s BS. A preorder reserves you an item that should be delivered around when they say it should, not over a month later.

If they couldn’t get a Milanese band, they should have offered another band, not just pushed my order off.

Similar issue here. Preparing to Ship last Friday and now pushed back to the end of Nov (original date Oct 20-22). Called Apple today and they weren't really sure what happened, but though it was odd it was saying Preparing to Ship if it was delayed due to a stock issue. I ordered a SS Graphite 45 with a sport band....are you waiting on the same case?

I'm late to the party but finally my series 7 arrived! I'm happy <3.

 

[lc96]

Just need to get a new strap as this one is a bit of a weird colour 😂

I really don't like it, either, and I don't even have the watch yet. But it was the only way to get the blue ordered.

Great bands! Glad to see shipping was fast from BandWerk, too.

 

[highdefjunkie]

LOL, Right? Only problem now is, I have nothing to look forward to. Thinking of ordering this one. (If I order today, it would arrive by Saturday) I have to stop! 5 new bands since last Friday is absolutely ridiculous!!! Someone please talk me out of it.

You should be happy! It looks great. Huge congrats.

I think the options they had on the preorder screen were not comparative to what would be delivered the quickest.
Next time, I’m going to get the actual combo I want at preorder, and once the preorder is in, look at other channels for speed (if not due for launch day).
I plan on getting a substantially more expensive watch next year, so want it to be right (not so much of an issue with aluminium).

I want to talk you out of it, since you ask, but seriously, if I were going leather, that one in the photo is totally what I would get.
