Still loving my 42mm White Sport. Really goes perfect with all my clothes. Have a black sports band on order but thinking I may cancel...

I have a SG BSB delivering on Monday, but I just love the look of the white sports band.
 
The SG is 42mm and the Silver is 38mm. Both are nice and comfortable, but I think 42mm is for me.

You're one of the few that can pull off either size. I'm about the same wrist size as you (180mm) and went with the 38mm, but it just comes down to personal preference.

I'm comfortable with both sizes. But the added screen size is a plus. Now I'm thinking to upgrade to the SS over the SG. ;)

With 150mm i think i will go with 42mm and yes I tried on both.
I really cant understand people with 160mm+ who think about getting the 38mm.
 
It just looks better when the watch doesn't dominate your wrist, but compliments it.

Mhh maybe a man with big wrists can wear a small watch more than a man wirh small wrists.
Small wrist with a small watch looks "perfect" but in this case a little bit feminin.
A big wrist with a small watch looks like "hey this man has really big wrists".
 
42mm Stainless Steel with Black Sport Band...Boom.

I like this concept. Not that it matters much, but your diagram should show the diameter lengthwise, not widthwise...in other words, a 42mm Apple Watch is 42mm from top to bottom...not side to side. But again, I think your method is a good one. ;)
 
38mm Watch Looks Better

Well, I have both a 42mm and a 38 mm watch on order. However, after looking at all the pictures if I was strictly going to pick a watch based on LOOKS, it would be the 38mm. It just looks nicer proportioned and the aesthetics are more pleasing to the eye. Kind of the way that shoe stores always put out the smaller shoes on display.
