Random question to those who have the watch: I know you can snap a picture remotely using your watch. But can you hit the record button and record video from the watch to the phone as well? That is a small feature but a huge benefit for me.

This is mine. I'm loving it!
 
Seeing the Sport in the pictures, I'm not sure what looks so "cheap" about it. It looks as good as any other "sport" watch I own. It looks like what it was intended for.

There's not a single Apple Watch that looks decent in my opinion. The Sport versions looks really cheap, yet the high end gold models look ridiculous and tacky. There's no middle ground.

The black on black actually looks nice. It's the only way to go, IMO, and it's what I ordered. :)

Agreed. I chose the Sport because the mirror finish of the Watch is too shiny in sunlight. It hurt my eyes a bit even while trying it at the Apple Store.

The matte black Sport certainly looks cool, in person and pictures. Mine comes later this morning! :)
 
I hope everyone that received their watch today enjoys it and has a great first weekend fiddling with it and learning about it. New gadgets are always a lot of fun.

Peace, everyone.
 
Loving my watch, managed to get if from Dover Street Market in London Today. Not a huge fan of the Milanese loop though I wanted the classic buckle but it's all they had left.

Did you try both? I did and the sport is not cheap but it just feels like a gadget comparing to the SS versions feel like more luxurious and also the bands feel better on your hand.

Yes I tried both and I completely understand your point. I have watches that I consider more luxurious than the Apple Watch. To me the Apple Watch is my gadget watch, I'll use my other watches for those more luxurious moments. :)

Exactly. I have a nice little watch collection with several watches costing a lot more than the Apple watch. This is a gadget, period.
