Had a Series 0 space black stainless. It lasted me 3 full years. But in watch years that is nothing. Got a Series 4 this morning. Not making same mistake... this one is aluminum. The lighter weight is actually nice.

Re: SS vs Al

Does anyone have the aluminum watch with the stainless Milanese loop? I like that band, but I’m wondering if it’d look cheesy on the aluminum watch.

I think it looks fine with the Aluminum watch. I had a third party Milanese Loop I bought off of Amazon and liked the way it looked on my Series 3.

I bet the black one looks good with the space gray as well. Since the screen is black and shiny when off it seems like the space gray case would act like a matte accent to the look. It's just a guess though. A coworker has a gold S2 with a 3rd party gold Milanese loop and that looks ok together, though it kinda reminds me of the "cheap gold watch at retirement" thing.
