Show off your Apple Watch

definitely the 42, it looks like you have a wide wrist (which is good for a guy). You could probably even pull off a bigger size than 42 if Apple made it.

You on the smaller wrist size, but go with the 42mm.

The only time I would suggest a 38 for a man, was if that man is extremely tiny and frail.

You could pull off either one. I like the look of the 38mm more, but it just comes down to personal preference when your wrist is that size.

Thanks for the feedback guys! I think I will keep the 42mm then! ;)

Apple Watch Sport, Space Grey: 38mm vs 42mm.
Witch one is the right size for me you think?

I know im repeating me, but for sure 42mm for you.
More than that I really can not understand why you are so unsure? You could wear a 44mm model too without a problem.

Agreed. Definitely a 42 for this guy!

Haha, okey. That is great to hear! :) Then Im sure the 42mm will be good for me.
I just want to be sure it's not look big and bulky. I want it to look like a watch and not a computer on a wrist.....but I guess it doesn't in my case... :)

The 42 does not look that much more like a smart watch than the 38mm.
But if you really doesnt want a smart watch look. And if the smaller screen/battery is ok for you, the 38mm would be a good thing for you too.

I am a little special in this. For me the watch can not look too much like a smart watch. I like the smart watch look.
Bigger screen and 20% more Battery got me.
I want the biggest screen possible on my wrist.
 
Showing it off, unfortunately received a faulty one :(

I ended up with a faulty one.... no joy at all (yet)
A joy to look at, feel and touch, but aside from displaying only the Apple logo, and nothing more :mad: one would have thought that at $579 they'd actually TEST each watch before shipping ????

off to the local Apple store this morning

That sucks! Our SG Sport arrived dead as well, and in the US the only option is to mail the defective unit and wait ~2 weeks for a replacement to be mailed back. Hopefully that's not the case for you down under

What watch face is that on the last one, and how did you get the Apple logo next to the time? I only thought you could have it on the monogram complication on the colour face...

Apple Watch app > Clock > City Abbreviations, then change it to a symbol (copy and paste the Apple logo unicode symbol from a website). That's the modular clock face and it's the world clock complication :)
 
Spot my watch... Bored and going to Greece in 10 days and organizing some carry on travel essentials. Taking my AW more so for jewelry/watch purposes over a smart watch since I have a limited roaming plan. Also want to track all my activity since I've kinda been obsessed with it as a fitness band.

Is that an actual film camera?

You paid out specifically to have stainless steel and you covered it up with an ugly, cheap plastic case? The logic here is flawless.

Putting a case on a watch is like driving a car around covered in plastic wrap. You use a case so that you won't scratch it but you never get to see the watch's non scratched body. What's the point?

To me this is so strange, It has to be the younger people who have never had a watch before.

I've never seen a guy with an Audemars or Patek put a plastic case on his watch out of fear of scratching it, and those are meant to last 100's of years, not be disposable in 2-3 years like the Apple Watch.

Yea the cases are hideous. I know it's to each their own. But it's a freaking watch!! Who puts cases on watches. A watch will always be more of a jewelry item.
