DO you work on a farm (genuine question) ?

Sheza No, I'm working in a LNG plant, and they use the John Deeres as mini transport :cool:

I have a pick up, cos I'm a SME :D

the :apple:watch is great, however its for light use, glances are correct, anything longer use the iphone or Ipad etc.

when i retire my wife will work on a farm and I'll sit on the porch and shout "More Beer please"
 
The watch faces bring some additional personality. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1431859043.445236.jpg
 
I love the all-black look. Never even contemplated another colour! I've been changing the colour of the Modular clock face to match my outfits.

Apple Watch Sport 42MM with black leather loop (and hairy arm) :cool: Totally changes the look of the Sport IMO.

Has there been much evidence to suggest the SS is more scratch prone than the Sport? I can imagine the Sport is as scratch prone as the iPhone casing (which is not very) and the shiny coating of the SS scratches incredibly easily.

I've had the SS for 12 days and have worn it for about 15 hours a day and it looks brand new. No scratches at all. Have done minor yard work in it, mowed the grass, housework ... everything ...
 
My stainless watch also seems like new, so it's not as though they're going to get scratched up the second you start wearing it. I suppose scratches of some kind are inevitable though.
 
Now my 42mm arrived.
The 42mm is really much nicer.
For my 150mm wrist, the 38mm is a little too small and the 42mm a little too big. In this case I prefer a little too big.

And for comparsion the 38mm

Both look ok in my opinion. I have no problem with a smart watch look and I really like the bigger look of the apple watch and the bigger screen with the better screen to bezel ratio.

I really like the 42mm better! They both look good, but pictures tend to make them look even bigger than they actually are and the 38 just looks too small in my opinion.

Stick with what you find to be the most comfortable!

Now that you added the 38, it looks better
 
My 42MM SBSS with Bright Blue Leather Loop..

To answer a couple of questions, the leather loop is 1,000,000 times more comfortable than the link bracelet. I have worn a rolex brushed stainless submariner for the last 15 years and the apple band is much more rigid and when it pinches, it pinches hard!

Additionally, i find the leather loop to look absolutely phenomenal with the space black. Its just the right look for me. Not too formal/casual. I am waiting on both the brown and stone leather loops to come in as well as the BSB with SG pin. Additional pics upon receipt.

Last but not least, my only niggle with any of the accessory bands from apple is that clearly none of them were meant to go with our watch. See my last photo for an example of such.

Loving my watch. Not necessarily as useful as i expected but it does make a few things simpler, like responding to basic texts and making quick impromptu calls from the wrist. I haven't yet gotten the notification load perfect yet but I see how it can make life a bit easier once perfect.

Good luck to all waiting on their devices, i hope the wait is swift!

I have to ask because I love your band.
I have a Milanese loop and I have to re-tightening it all day. I'm thinking about your band but I'll pass if I'll have the same problem.
