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

What 😳 worse than S5/S6?
Didn't have the S5, use to feel every notification on my wrist with my S6, had a awesome haptic engine, or maybe it was the thinner aluminium, I'm guessing it's the thicker stainless steel that's the problem, not a deal breaker, just a tad annoying, might have to toggle my phone off silent mode now. 😤

@Boardiesboi i’d ask @TheYayAreaLiving but she’s been nagging me to get one since day 1 lol.

You tried this band before? Looks a bit feminine not that there is anything wrong with that, also can’t see it going well with my trackies and hoodies, looks more like a dresser band, people also saying it scratches the watch case.

Reminds of something my uncle would wear back in the days. 🤔🤦‍♂️😂

Available for pickup tomorrow. 🤔🤦‍♂️
Do it!

Love this band - the main reason I have gone back to Silver after gold & black. Looks stunning.

Not going to lie, looks amazing, problem is, it won't match my clothing.
Lol it doesnt really match mine anymore - 7 years working from home (none of this 'nouveau pandemic WFH' lol).

Live in shorts (yes I am in the UK, but we have heating) and t-shirts 90% of the time...except when I have a Zoom call that I have to turn on video and then it is shorts and a dress shirt :)

The Milanese makes me feel like I have dressed up for work without the bother. I have the black, silver & gold Milanese and the only scratchy ones are the black (need to be really careful) and the gold (a bit careful). The silver one is just common sense.

Let me wear these watch bands a bit first lol, then I'll consider getting one, basically throwing money at all these watch bands, while they sit in a draw lol.

If I remember well, I also started with a black 3G. I’ll have to check about that though, I think I got an iPhone earlier than 2008.
Didn't know nothing about iPhones when I got my 3GS, few month later the iPhone 4 news comes out, remember watching Steve Jobs talk about the Retina display, next thing I know, I'm waiting inline at 4am so I can get one. 🤦‍♂️😂

It was worth it, never again though lol.

Anyone know anywhere in the UK where I can order a 45mm SS now and not have to wait until December? I placed an order with Apple but don't want to wait that long.

(there used to be a UK preorder thread didn't there? Can't see that anywhere)

Hi guys... just a quick message to share my pain (no less 😅).

Ordered (confirmation mail received 5 minutes after the pre-order started) a 45mm S7 GPS only blue aluminum with abyss blue braided solo loop... in the Oct 25-Nov 2 bandwagon... and no sign of any mouvment so far... nothing on the credit card side, not yet preparing to ship... i'm sad! lol

Have a nice day, enjoy your watch when it arrives... and have a nice week-end.

Thanks for the update!! It wasn’t a few weeks ago.
But is ‘t this going to make you want it even more? :D :D
No probs, even if I did want it, we won't be getting it here 🇦🇺🦘 for a while, we just got the redesigned apple maps a few days ago. 😂

Putting that card in my hands isn't a good idea, I'll clean out my local apple store in 5 minutes. 🤦‍♂️😂
