On the 10th at 8:03am space grey sport with black band
Was gonna go with the SS version but as its a gen 1 watch I'll wait until it's improved and made a lil thinner before punting 500+ notes

Mine arrived today, not played around with it much but so far im impressed
People who have the watch, how are you finding the thickness with cuffs when it comes to wearing long sleeve shirts (specifically a work-type shirt)?
Does the watch catch at all? I'm at the point of getting an old Fossil watch out the cupboard which is roughly the same thickness to see if I can live with it on a daily basis

Mine arrived today and so far I love it. Its really nice to be able to do 90% of the stuff I did on my phone without having to use my phone!
Things like setting alarms and reminder; replying to text messages and making sure an email is worth looking at before giving it my attention is great. I think as a lot of people have said, this will save them a lot of battery on their iPhone. It has plenty of limitations but I don't mind them and for almost all of them, the phone is a much better device to accomplish the on.

I'm having exactly the same dilemma!
I'm using the dictation a lot for replying to messages but I find that certain times it either hangs or seems to be waiting for something. Has anyone else had the same issues?
Its especially obvious if you dictate a piece of text then add punctuation like a comma or exclamation mark.

I used dictation and found it very accurate compared to when I do the same on the iPhone
very pleased overall
The dictation itself is very good, its the processing that it seems to be doing if I stick a comma in there.
I picked up my 42mm Stainless Steel + Milanese Loop model at Dover Street Market in London on Monday and have been using it since. I'm absolutely loving it (Coming from a previous owner of Pebble Steel).
Yesterday was my first full day of use. It had a day of what I'd call pretty moderate use (Given that I'd already tried most things out for the first time on Monday), which included frequent notifications for messages etc, typical testing out Siri and demoing stuff to everyone that wanted to see, Passbook to swipe the Cineworld QR code in the evening, activity turned on, and using the Philips Hue app to turn lights on and off in the house.
I took it off its charger and popped it onto my wrist as I was leaving the house at about 8.45am, and got home just after midnight, at which point the battery was on 41%, so I'm quite happy with that side of things!
I've since ordered the black Sport band for running with as I don't want to mess up the Milanese Loop with sweat (It's beautiful), but obviously it's backordered to May and neither the Regent St or Covent Garden Apple Store's had any straps yet.
They did have extra magnetic chargers though in both 1m and 2m variations. I picked up a 1m one for travelling with.

Cheers all
