38mm SS BSB on 180mm wrist.

I also ordered a 42mm one which hasnt shipped yet. Not sure which size to take though. I like that with the small one nobody is realizing i am wearing a smartwatch.

I can't say what I want to about your pose, else I'll get moderated. :D:D:eek:

More seriously, watch looks great.
 
I love my SS 42mm BSB but I've been getting a few marks on the SS from the gym so I wanted something that looks sporty but will also help with those little scratches. Pretty happy with the Spigen Rugged Armor.

The TPU matches the BSB perfectly:

Not to be negative, but I don't get watch cases.

Unless you are doing karate and chopping cinder blocks or similar. I can't think of a time a case would come in handy. To each their own, no offense, just opinion. I actually came across this case on amazon by mistake yesterday and was wondering why people are buying it.

I like the 38 for the same reason. Looks great on you!

Like my post said... I've been going to the gym and have scratched up the SS a bit so the case is on there. It hits the handles of workout machines.

But maybe I will take up karate now that I have a case.

This would be perfect for the gym. I think it looks ok! Some people Iv spoken to don't like the watch because it's so rounded, so I'm guessing some will enjoy these cases :) everyone has different tastes. Lovely photos by the way!

Thanks. That's exactly what I use it for. Less flashy without the SS showing and the case protects it from handles from machines.

I think the case looks fine, not quite as good as I'd hoped. I ordered one my self. Not to protect the watch, because I do think in regular use cases that would be silly, but to give it a different look now and then. Kind of as your pointing out.

I love these people that say "it looks stupid" or whatever. Makes me laugh. It's for you to like, not them. I can't wait for mine to come. I'm going to start a thread just for it and load a ton of pictures of it from every possible angle! Lol

Lmao and seriously. Not to be a fashion elitist but I've been working in in the fashion industry for 10 years now working my way up from data entry to now Creative Director. I know a little something about style. Not saying this case is gonna be on the cover of GQ or Details, but for $15, it's not bad.

----------

Why do you care what others think? The case makes it look even more stupid. No offense.

I think it looks stupid. Well let me take that back, I don't think it looks stupid, it's just not my thing. And the only people I see wearing SS watches and gold watches at the gym are old men.

Ant these are my thoughts... what are you talking about what other people think?

Would love to see how you dress...

I'm not sure I get this thread's obsession with posing your watch in front of the logo on your vehicle's steering wheel. Is that intentional? Seems sort of lame.

I plan on posing with my Apple Watch with the logo of my stove in the background. Everybody who is anybody knows that middle-class kitchen appliances are where the fashionistas are focusing these days. They're the new black!
 
So I usually refrain being brash or negative on any internet forums but man...these pics of watches is cases make me cringe. Just awful. Would anyone ever actually put a case on any other watch?

Why are people doing this? Is it because they are expensive? I've never seen a non-smart watch, especially the more expensive ones, be wrapped in a case. This is such a weird mentality.

Sorry but....ICK!

Okay...rant over.

Well I grew up with swatch watches that we put the rubber things around. I actually really like some of the cases, let you add a bit more personalization to your watch. to each his own, if you don't like it don't get it and vice versa
 
Hi Guys,

Did anyone try to pair the iphone 6 plus to the apple watch and a car bluetooth handsfree device at the same time? I have a pioneer which automatically detects my iphone whenever i switch on the car, I would like to know if the iphone will be able to support both the apple watch and my pioneer at the same time.

Thanks! :)

I don't know if you've gotten an answer yet but, it will work just fine. I have a BT enabled vehicle and my iPhone 6+ was able to connect to the car while the my watch remained connected to my iPhone.
 
UPS attempted to deliver at 1040am, missed me. Went online at 150pm to pick up at the Customer Center today. Someone called at 2pm to say they'd try and call me back at 4. They called at 430 saying I could pick it up at 615pm!

42mm, looks smaller on my wrist than it actually is. My wrist is about 2 1/2 inches across, 7 inch circumference.

Very cool pic

Best pic I've seen.

I say rock the Spigen Rugged Armor if you like it. Doesn't look any sillier than my G-Shocks. And it's your watch. To each his own. I might get the Spigen Tough Armor in that loud orange just for fun to change it up. We should try supporting each other. We get upset if somebody makes fun of us for buying one of these gadgets, yet we turn around and make fun of someone who wants a case for his. Rock on man. :D
