Just got mine 2 days ago. 38mm on about 170mm wrist. I was worried it might be too small. Seems like it has an okay fit, but i could do 42mm. What do you guys think on the size? Good fit?
Got a tip for us?

Looks perfect to me! 98% of the time I'm a 38 fan!
Ps. However, having 180mm wrist myself, I wish there was just a little more band left over on the classic bucke. Do you find this as well?
Why did you order the 38mm with your sized arms?
They look bigger than 170mm.
Looks small if you didnt wanted an extra small watch.
Oh Mapple86, leave us 38 guys alone would you?! Lol
Go hang out with your 42 buddies! Lol
By the way the 42 does look good on you
I can understand that, but how much Band do you need to see? Here a picture of the 38mm on my 150mm wrist.You know, some of us don't want our watch case to go edge to edge on our wrist. We like to show of the band a little bit on each side!
It shows enough band I think?
So with more than 20mm more wrist circumfence I think the 42mm would look on you like a 38mm on me.
Yeah, I tried the 42 and felt it was to big for me. But I'm not a big watch kind of guy.
Now see, I think that 38 looks good on you. However, I've seen your other pics, and with your long hands etc you can definitely pull of the 42.
My wrist is ~180mm, and I really wanted the 38mm watch, but both my wife & the Apple Store person told me it was too small. I have not received it yet, and every day I wonder if I'm going to be happy with the bigger watch. I've always gone for the smaller watches over the years.
I will admit the 38mm with the Milanese Loop was difficult to get over my hand, so in the end I do believe my wife and the girl at the Apple Store are correct.
If y'all haven't left here by the time I get my watch, I'll post pictures.

We'll watch for you! When's it due?
I ordered a 42mm SS ML on the 12th of April, due date is the last week of June, but I'm really hoping to get some good news this week. They were (according to the 42mm SS ML June thread) up to morning of the 11th last week. After the long silent weekend I'm thinking we may actually be up to the 12th RSN.
Wow, it's been a long haul for you ML guys! Well, hopefully you'll love it once you get it like a lot of us do!
If you've been reading everything on this forum since you ordered, you should already have a good idea if you'll love it or not, no?! Lol
Picking three watches at random from past pages...
Watch 1 and Watch 2 - gaps and bar
Watch 3 no gaps - looks finished!
ALL BANDS look great, its just the way they attach to and finish off the watch I am not wrapt with.

42 Sport with Milanese
9:99 UK pounds Cheap stand that doesnt fit very well, however itll do for the office.
Also Im keeping the app layout on a 2-3 limit, making it easier to select the apps, in a vertical line
Gotto go got I'm late for a meeting
Love your reminder!!!!!!
And in my opinion it looks great. You seem to be dead set on 42 is the only size for everybody over 16. It's not. Enjoy YOUR 42 and accept the fact that there are different tastes.
As much as I like the number 42, this is NOT the answer to everything. (As we know this answer was insufficient in the first place
)
