I actually just realized that Apple stopped making the black stainless steel AW and that you could only get it as the Hermes edition.

I quite like the new Hermes faces in watchOS 8, though; I need complications. If my Apple Watch is only telling the date and time on its face, I’m wearing a traditional watch instead. Hermes or not, my AW is used as a tool to track my health and give me info and capabilities like a phone.

I’m still a watch “traditionalist” and have a “rotation” of my Swiss pieces. So, rarely wear the AW *all day*, but still wear it almost daily at some point when I’m working out!

Yeah getting Space Black was my main reason for ordering it, but I also like the subtle watch faces. They’ve also added a few with complications now.

That’s the main reason I went for the Hermes this time around - the new face with complications on the edges

Been hoping to walk into an Apple Store or Best Buy on Friday to get one but I'll probably have to wait to get one when there's more supply - probably in November.

I’m hoping to find out if it’s a silver color at a white almost like the ceramic watch, so I can decide what to get.

Has anyone seen the starlight in person?

I just saw a close-up shot of the starlight and it is sort of a champagne color. Not really silver - definitely not white.

I'm hoping the Apple Store line is almost non-existent tomorrow so I can pick up an AWS7. If it's long/busy, I'm just not going to bother.

People don't usually line up for Apple Watches so I think I'll be okay.

Just checked the inventory at all the Apple Stores in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area and there isn't a 45mm AWS7 in-stock in the color/band combination I want. I'm okay with waiting until I can find the one I want.

Was hoping to be able to buy the series 7 at my local Apple store…

But they don’t have any in stock yet. So I ordered one and it will take four or five weeks to get here. I didn’t expect it to take that long at this point in time, but oh well. Here is a screenshot of what I am getting:

Canceled my order for the series 7 because it is now in stock at my Apple store! I bought it and will pick it up on Monday morning!! I decided to trade in my stainless steel silver series 6 instead of my Nike series 5.

At last big numeric hour in the middle !
With zoom in accessibility !
Once set it will show your setting every time you raise your arm !
It take practice to achieve what you want.
Set the zoom a 2X or 3X max !

Hour zoom from Compact Modular with all complications off !

Original date was Nov 16-23, but my watch delivered a few minutes ago. The only sad thing about it, is I’m out of town & wont be able to admire it until Tuesday
