Uh oh, I used Apple's measuring tool in an Apple Store and it had me at size 8, I wonder if I should have chosen size 7 since it stretches.
Got a tip for us?

Have a blue aluminum w/ leather link on order (Oct 6-9 delivery), but was able to reserve a titanium space black with Milanese for tomorrow morning Apple store pick up. My guess is I'll end up keeping the titanium, I love that it has the sapphire screen.
Picked up my 44m Titanium watch and it is super light compared to the SS I had previously. I like the brushed natural look.
Verizon has to add the IMEI to their database so it’s a watch until tomorrow
The Apple store in SF was very efficient- A lot of people were having issues with the woven bands but they were allowing swaps for another size. Glad I decided to chose a different band. I added AppleCare to my watch as well.
My tracking info for my orders updated as I was driving home so I would have gotten them on Monday 9/21 -If I would have known that I wouldn’t have bought one for pickup.

I’m interested to compare the weight as well. I never minded the SS and liked the heft. Hope the Ti doesn’t feel too light like the aluminum.
Hair over six grams, almost a quarter of an ounce.

edit - interesting that they shaved half to two thirds of a gram off going from S5 to S6
For those that went from the sbti 5 to 6 is the rubber sport strap the same exact gray color as the one that comes with the aw5?
Sadly from what I’ve read and experienced with my size today, yes. I’ve seen the sizing more wrong than I have right, but that’s sorta to be expected on the webs. Here’s a link to the thread discussing sizing.
New Solo Loop sizing woes
Apple Lehigh Valley will size you and let you try actual bands.

Great question. I’m curious about this as well. I’ll be able to compare on the 21st.

I broke. Ordered both. Will see which I prefer. Return the other.

The titanium is definitely worth the wait everyone -Wishing you all moved up delivery dates.

I ordered natural titanium with charcoal sport loop right away but got a September 25 - 29 delivery date. Just got a notice yesterday that it had shipped from China. Looks like it is estimated to deliver on Monday, September 28.
Checked the Apple Store app yesterday and saw my local store had it in stock and ready for pick-up. So I bought it in-store yesterday, and I'll return the one they shipped to me when it eventually shows up.
First time with titanium, and I love it!

I would’ve done the same. There is no Apple Store in Michigan that sells Editions sadly. I think my 25-29 deliver date will be moved up to Monday this week or Wednesday at the latest.
I just compared the band that came with my natural titanium AW5 to the one that came with my natural titanium AW6. They are identical.
Yeah Apple said 28th when shipped email came, UPS then said Monday, but it needs to make clearance and get through China. I expect Monday or Tuesday.
That’s the one I ended up with as well and I picked it up yesterday - The woven band delayed my order. I think I want the new solo band instead anyway now.

I am coming from a SS series 3 40mm to the SBTi with charcoal milanese loop, same cost as the other bands, $100, so I opted to “customize” mine to get that band instead, and I’ll sell my S3 SS once it arrives with Milanese.
here’s hoping SB is durable over natural Ti.. or else I’m waiting again for another order.

Thinking of going for this strap with Titanium. What do you think? I'm also interested in the new Graphite but not so sure which strap goes best with that. Coming from version 2 so will probably keep for a while.

UK based here. Coming from a Al S4. Pre-ordered a Ti S6 with charcoal sports loop shortly after the Apple store came back up on Tuesday.
It's also coming directly from China using UPS.
Apple quoted Sept 25-28 for delivery which changed to 28th once it shipped. UPS then initially quoted Sept 25 delivery but that has been moved up twice now since it's been with them. Now scheduled for delivery Tuesday 22nd.

I’ve got the same configuration on order and have just got the dispatch email from Apple saying it will be delivered on the 28th.
it hasn’t gone live on the UPS system yet so I hope it gets moved up by a few days like yours as it would be nice to get it before next weekend.
According to other posts and the 'what's in the box' section of the Apple store app / website, yes it does come with another light grey M/L sports band.
Hmmm....my flight tracking it's a bit off here as my Watch / UPS package has just arrived at Dubai and not CGN as I initially thought!

The natural Ti comes with a light gray sport band, the SB Ti comes with a dark gray sport band. Each band has a corresponding matching Ti pin.
Last year, and per unboxing posts this year, you get both S/M and M/L versions of the sport band - even though Apple's In the Box says different.
