UPDATE: I'm going to keep the above graph up-to-date as much as possible. (Hey! 1.54% per hour is my best rate yet! )

ORIGINAL POST:
Let's report all our battery life percentages at the end of the day. Be sure to state what major apps are running, how much time on cellular, activities recorded, 32mm or 42mm, anything notable, etc, etc.
I've been getting significantly more that the advertised 18 hours of battery power.
I'll start...mine is a 42mm Space Gray Aluminum Series 3 watch with GPS & LTE . . .
