That looks really sharp. I am actually going back to try them on again to see if the 38 might be the better option...so indecisive.

When did you order/when did it come?

I went back and forth too. Haven't seen a 42 so can't comment. I ordered this Wednesday and it got here Friday. I'm in the U.S. If that helps too.
 
42mm :)

I think I could have gone either way, my wrist width is about the size of a credit card. The buckle does up comfortably to pretty much the central pin, so I guess that makes my wrist circumference about 180mm (couldn't find a tape) based on the size range the classic buckle fits. The weight is nice too, I think the 42 might have been too heavy. I'd probably go for a sport if it was a 42.

I've had it on for a few days now and I'm okay with the screen size. I don't really see me using it for much more than a nice watch, and letting me know why my phone buzzed without having to get it out. I certainly can't imagine myself talking to Siri to dictate a text or sending one of those new emoji things. Jeez, I sound like an old man.

I have a feeling that your wrist circumference is a fair amount less than 180... I say this because I just measured my wrist and it's 180 spot on, and my wrist is just slightly wider than a credit card (about 1mm on each side) -- can you please take a measuring tape or piece of paper and ruler and report back? :) thanks
 
Mhhh as photos show the watch much bigger than in real I think the 42mm would work perfect too.

depends on how far you're away . If you take a picture from 1m in front of a mirror , it will look like it does in real
 
Here's my $0.02

Here's my :apple:Watch Sport 42mm Space Grey with Black Sports Band. Ordered it on April 10 with confirmation at 12:06 AM Pacific. Initial delivery was May 13-27. It was delivered on Friday, May 1st at approximately 4:43 PM Pacific.

:cool:

But I am SERIOUSLY considering getting a Spigen or Actionproof case for it.

I think you meant to say, ordered April 10th.
 
Settled for 38mm now :cool:

I think, if you look at the watch yourself, it looks different, than if somebody else looks on the watch , the distance to the mirror was about 75cm.
(Sorry for the bad quality, my hands were bit shaky)


38mm looks great on you! Die Borrusen!
 
Care to post some pics of the other way around - space grey watch with white strap? :)

Space grey Sport 42mm with white bands.

It appears the space gray is much darker than the iPhone space gray? Am I wrong? Or does it look similar to the slate on the original iPad mini? I'm debating between the space gray and the ss.
