This happened yesterday. I purchased the AW7 Graphite Stainless Steel Edition 45mm version.

It didn’t happen.
You made it happen.
While I’m glad you have a new watch, I think you should’ve waited.
The Watch series 8 is gonna be super awesomasauce.

That’s a large watch. How thick is it?

It's the 45mm version and it's thin in comparison to my Citizens, Seiko, Casio, Timex and others I have that doesn't do half of what this Apple Watch can do.

Yes, I could have waited, but waited for how long? The AW7 was available for purchase on October 15 2021...keeping that in mind, why wait for 8 more months when Verizon had a great deal on the AW7 right now along with my Device Dollars that I would have lost in June.
I don't make my purchase decisions based on what Tartarus thinks I should have done...LOL

That's good to know. I'm still into mechanical watches but I like them on the thinner side. Maybe some day when they hold a charge longer I'll try an electronic one.

This is actually my third AW (original series and the fourth series) and to be honest since I've started wearing Apple Watches, my other watches just sit in my watch case wondering when I'm going to wear them..LOL
I'm not exactly sure how long I could go without charging this AW, but I estimate about two days, however I charge it every night like I do for my iPhone. I remember when we never had to charge our home phones or earbuds either...LOL

Just curious if anyone else noticed that the AW face became brighter since the last WatchOS update to 8.5.1? Or is it just me and my eyes?
