IMO you should get the 38mm, the 42mm looks VERY big, but just my opinion!

----------

It looks a bit exaggerated in that photo.

Whats your wrist size?
I haven't measured my wrist, but after trying both 38 and 42, I preferred the latter.

Here's another angle.

** update: wrist size is 170mm

I think we need to stop making judgments about size based on these photos, since in my experience they look totally different in real life.
 
For comparison....this was $119

Finally got mine today, loving it! :apple: Now just waiting on the black leather loop to arrive.

Please report back about aluminium corrosion when you get the band, please. Folks have been warned on Apple Stores about that, I'd like to know if the Leather Loop causes the same effect (and/or if it has SS on the part that attaches to the Watch), because I'm also interested in having the same setup as you...
 
i think every guy that has a space gray is going to add some blue on his watch face :p

including me!

best email!! #irony

Blue Sport to match my blue Sports car (M4)!

Ordered on 04/11 after changing my mind several times. Received today 04/27. 42MM. So far its "ok" I don't see this replacing my Rolex but maybe over time I will like it more.. Haven't had a lot of notifications in the last few hours to really test that out.

Nice

M3 or M4? I'm looking at one of these possibly. Any issues?

If it's an M3 don't bother I had one a the throttle actuators go easily. They're also quite common and affordable. Just expensive to run. My last service was like £900 (after discount).
 
Just got my 42mm SG BSB watch in the mail!!!

With all these cool photos I'm still confused as to what to buy. Have not been able to physically hold one and having a hard time between 38 or 42. I don't have a large wrist, but I want to be able to see it well but don't want to look like I'm wearing a tablet either.

For those that bought the 38, are you happy with the size?
Those that bought 42 does it seem ok or too big ?
Either of you wish you'd bought the other ?

Thx
 
I went with the 38mm space gray sport because I didn't want it to look like a super nerdy smart watch. My wrists are about 175mm. Do you guys think it looks good? I'm happy with it but have some doubts.

Whats your wrist size? Looks really good on you, I'm like 175 I think and 38 felt really small (which was a disappointment as I wanted it to be subtle) but looks great on you!

The black looks so much nicer than the normal sports watch!

I'd prefer 42 but 38 looks ok. To be honest: 4mm is not a big difference and the 42 model does NOT look geeky at all.
