Ups pushed back the delivery one day!

Now I have it!!! Still learning how best to use it. Kind of underwhelming after reading so many forum posts, blogs, and articles and watching so many YouTube videos about it, but here it is in all of its tech beauty:

It's on a Spigen stand with the brown leather loop strap. I like it but I'm definitely not upgrading for some time. Way too big a hit on my wallet!!!

You're free to wear it how you want but typically the short band piece is at the top.

I tried that at first but found it harder to adjust as I wear it...

A shot of it on my wrist with the "what's playing" glance showing up when I flick it on:

I've noticed it smudges easily. I'll keep you posted on scratches. I expect to get at least a few, since this is a watch and I will wear it like a normal watch rather than treating it like an expensive piece of tech, though this is also an expensive piece of tech.

Something interesting happened to me today- I've been checking for Space Black SS local reservation availability like a hopefully madman and finally got one. Went in and they brought it out for me, awesome, but it wouldn't scan. 15 minutes, a manager and store support later, we find out that the watch cannot be sold because that model still has online orders pending from before store sales commenced.

Didn't surprise me but it still sucks.

Yeah, it did suck. Especially driving 1.5 hours to get there. They were nice and helped me out with something else though.

Apple made that announcement a few weeks ago, that the SB SS versions wouldn't be available in-store until all of the online orders through May were fulfilled. If they actually have some on location, my guess is they'll be lifting this hold in the next couple of weeks.

(For reference: I got mine in mid/late-May, after ordering in April; ordered wife's on 13 May - delivered today)

I just took a look and if you want a 42mm one you can go to Colorado

They have at least one in stock for pickup today!

I haven't seen any pics of this combination so I figured I'd share.

Thoughts?

Why not! It looks like you're having fun with it, and that's the point!
