It doesn't look too small. If your happy with the screen size that's all that matters. Otherwise if your near a Apple Store try on a 42 and compare the two. Just make sure they don't mistake your watch for a demo and keep it.
How do I exchange the band? I thought band exchanges were for just certain sports models?
I think it is difficult to tell from pictures. But the main thing is that ideally you would look at it and it would look just right to you ... it would just be "it" ... KWIM?
I was the same with my 42 ... I wasn't sure. Then I got a 38 and it just looks perfect to me.... no question about it! That is ideal I think. If you are unsure, I wonder if it will ever look right to you?
What size wrist do you have? I have the 42mm and it seems small. My wrist is 190mm (corrected)
I think like most people, are posting these types of pictures from inside a parking lot of some type, reading MacRumors. For me, I did that because I was waiting for a bus at a park and ride facility...for those of you not in big cities, a park and ride facility, is a large parking lot or structure, where you can safely park your car, so you can get on the bus., rather than parking in say a Walmart parking lot, and risk it getting towed, while you're on the bus. Rather than watching paint dry, waiting for a bus, I check MR. It just so happens I took a picture to post here, while I was in the car....and no I wasn't driving
Finally found some time to post pics. Received my AW 5/7, just in time to wear for Mother's Day! Decided a white mani would be perfect!!
38mm SS WSB
My wrist is 139mm, 50mm across. Yep,..tiny!
(and ya, I'm a lefty!)

My 38mm bsb ordered on 4/24 at 12pm central time. Received it on Friday 5/8. I had an estimated delivery of may21- June 4th. I love it!! Going to eventually get a black band.
I think it is too small on you, but if you are happy with it just ignore me. My 38 looked similar to that in pictures but in real life looked very much like a women's watch.
I appreciate your opinion. I completely disagree. It's perfect on my wrist. The 42 looked too big and took up most of my wrist. Which I didn't want.
Damn! Makes me second guess my decision to go with the Sport for Gen 1. It looks so nice.
Nice keyboard!!!
Is it difficult for you to use the apple watch that way? I have a friend who wears his smartwatch like that.

Really nice pic. Shows off just how well the bezel blends into the screen, making it look like a real watch.
That's my theory. Maybe in the future, but Apple hides the bezel in all of Watch OS, except a few instances like the photos app.
