My husband replaced his original Apple watch with this one because he wanted to be able to swim with it. Four days after we bought it, there was a running crack along the edge of 3 sides! My husband swears he didn't hit it on anything, but we don't know that for sure. Glad we bought the Apple Care. It was disappointing that he had his original one for over a year, and it was still in perfect condition when we sold it, but this one had cracked within 4 days. Hopefully it was a fluke and won't be an issue again, but I definitely recommend getting some kind of protection on the watch immediately!

And got one but they failed to advertise that What they are calling gold is actually the ugly pink. After going round and round with Apple about the color discrepancy I gave up and went back to the Apple Watch 2. It’s fine, I like it but am just disappointed because I really wanted the newer model but hate pink.

The series 2 is pretty awesome due to the fact that's it's water proof. I wear it to the beach washing dishes, bathing kids it is great. The only problem it has is that it seems to be more sensitive to tattoos than the series 1.
My first watch always worked but it was a haste taking it off and on during my daily activities, however it didn't seem to have the tattoo "glitch" folks were complaining about. This watch seems like it does. I haven't worked out with the series 2 on yet but with the series1 when ever I got sweaty it would stop my work out tracking. So I still haven't gotten into that, but I feel pretty good that it will hold up fine being it handles so much water without issue

I love my Apple Watch. I got the Apple Watch Series 2 with the silver case and a white band. It goes with everything. I love the fact that I can take a call on it or receive or send text messages. I get alerts about the weather or news alerts. I am going to incorporate it with my workouts so I can see how many calories I burned etc. It is very handy. I love, love, love it!

The Apple Watch is great. It keeps me motivated and on track with my workouts, it makes communicating with my loved ones simple even when I am busy and can't get to my phone right away. Its durable and can take the everyday wear and tear. I'm never worried about it getting damaged while at work or it getting wet. Best watch I've ever owned.

I do love a lot about this watch and I've tried almost every Fitness watch on the Market. I will say that for a Fitness watch this misses the mark, of you are s runner wanting real detailed info or are interested in the fitness tracking for steps and sleep this is not what you want. If you are ok with just average info in these areas this watch will be fine and thd added features of the iPhone are a great bonus. I loved the texting and call ability I think it is better than my iPhone in those areas! I also LOVE the variety of bands you can buy and how EASY It is to change- no other watch compares in that area.

Love all the apps from health to talk to text and seri commands to send texts and make calls. You can add and remove apps. Interchangeable face top pics can add your own also. I added the sleep app for 4.99 ( never paid for app so wasn't happy with that ) . I can check email texts and lots of other stuff plus it's water proof!

I love my Apple Watch. I received it as a birthday present. I was hesitant about getting rose gold. But I love it! I love all the features. Especially when I am taking care of patients, I can just look at the watch quickly. I did change the band to a black band that I ordered on Amazon. I have received so many compliments!

Started with Apple Watch series one but work in health care and around water a lot. So, I upgraded. Absolutely the best decision. Apple Series 2 38mm Rose Gold with pink sand band. Can't wait to pair my Watch with my AirPods and I can leave my phone in the car while at the gym. Less distraction!!

I got my Apple Watch Series 2 (38mm with White Sports band, but I wear a black band for everyday activities) earlier this year, and am very impressed with it (I previously had a Fitbit Chrarge HR). First, the quality of the band is remarkable - It washed nicely (just washing it in the sink after working out or yard work) and has yet to show any wear and tear. I work in a wear house and it has held up wonderfully.
The Watch body itself is beautiful and feels high quality.
The OS is so easy to use and the touchscreen is incredibly easy to navigate.
After only a month of using it, I'm never going back to anything besides an Apple Watch.

This ended up having more features that I use than i originally thought I would. My favorite is the ability to read part of any emails I receive and I can delete or mark as read right from my Iwatch, I can see who's calling me at a quick glance and even use it to track exercise from walking to bike riding. It has become a part of my daily life and I love it! Also you can make it as dressy or dressed down as you want to very easily with a few accessories. I must mention that one of the most important features is the ability to see anything that shows up on the face of the Iwatch which was a worry for me when I ordered it. It is clear and bright even in daylight. I could go on and on about other features, but get one and find out for yourself!!

I love my watch! It has allowed me to be hands free with the kids I watch and still able to have access to my phone if needed. It challenges me to be more active. I don't do anything without it!

Had put off getting an Apple Watch for a long time telling myself "you don't really need that." I was so wrong. I do need this watch! So many helpful features--the one I use often is "find my phone"! The health apps have been most helpful from counting my daily steps to reminding me to stand up during the day and take a break and just breathe. So convenient to see messages and phone calls when out without digging for my phone in my purse. Seeing Minnie tapping her foot and hearing her voice telling me the time always makes me smile. I could go on and on, but bottom line is I am a fan!

Love my new Apple Watch. It makes answering or rejecting calls and using Siri very easy. I can connect to pandora, leave my phone on the kitchen table, and use the watch to adjust the volume, skip or pause songs as I do house work. Please get a protective case! The salesman forgot to mention that they can shatter easily and I found out the hard way. Thankfully I have AppleCare+.

Easy to set up and use. Texts and emails are quick. The wireless headphones set up to music was tricky and did not always connect.
