If you ordered from Apple online store and it is still within 14days, I suggest you return it or ask for a change of model. I think you got a lemon...

anyone has any idea whether would the size s/m Milanese loop on a 42mm apple watch be too large for a 5 inches wrist?

TIA!

I love my Apple Watch to bits. Now my Omega is permanently retired. I used to keep myself updated in the developments and news of new swiss timepieces. Now not anymore. Whenever I see someone with a mechanical watch or some other conventional watches I just see them in a different light - sort of like an archaic and old fashioned wrist device that I'm glad I'm no longer associated with. Somehow the reverence I used to have with the artistry of Swiss mechanical watches is lost.

I use it mainly for reminders of my next appointment (I use the calendar extensively). It's much quicker to just take a glance than having to pull out my phone. Incoming messages can be read much quicker too. It's a perfect tool to acknowledge small bits of information like messages and notification. And I used Siri (need to be in a quiet environment though) to dictate a reply. It works well in my case. And the Activity app reminds me to stand and take a walk if I'm sitting for too long. And all these still in its infancy. Expect more apps and better watch apps in future.

U bring up an interesting topic. What does your daily watch or luxury watch end up? Rotating doesn't make sense cos the idea of using apple watch is to track fitness etc

Apple Watch will get my daily wrist time. Need it more for the wealth of info it provides. Time is actually a secondary feature. Just like smartphones the call function is a secondary feature to me. The mechanical watch I keep in a winder.

For the case, I recommend the Spigen Tough armour, with this case you won't need to put on a screen protector because the case comes with a plastic cover. Here is a unboxing video I made for the case : https://youtu.be/VblO3Zmy5J8

For the stand, I recommend Spigen Apple Watch Stand. Plain and simple stand and does the job well. https://youtu.be/bTvc3K1YSW4

Mechanical watches will still have their own "class". The fact that you are leaving your omega behind and changing to an Apple watch is probably a downgrade in the eyes of Swiss watch enthusiasts. Unless of course you are wearing the gold edition Apple Watch.
Also wearing the Apple Watch will become a common sight when everyone on the planet seems wearing one. The feeling of exclusiveness is no longer there.
Think you will lose steam soon and go back to your Omega. :)

Owning the Apple Watch for almost 2 months now, I am seriously getting bored. Guess you guys are still new on the boat.
