Ordered my Space Black Stainless Steel 42mm Apple Watch Series 2 from Best Buy because they could get it just as quickly as Apple and they are local and I could use their interest free financing program.
Pros:
1. Very good battery life - 48+ hours.
2. Activity rings are very addictive and great motivator to get you up and moving.
3. Super convenient receiving notifications on my wrist and easier to respond to them than you'd think from such a small screen - voice dictation works well and scribble is a cool feature.
4. I've only bought one other band so far but it's fun changing the look up.
5. Use it to control my music on my phone and to control some light switches in the house (HomeKit and with Siri).
Cons: None to speak of.

I had the first generation Apple watch and loved it. The second generation functions smoother with the upgraded processor. The new features are also helpful, especially being able to swim with it.

I’m an early adopter. I got the first release of the Apple Watch. Just loved it. I bought the aluminum one on launch and since I used it every day I decided to upgrade to the flashier and more durable stainless steel/sapphire glass series too. Super happy by my choice. Love it!

I've had other Apple watches and they work great, especially the Series 2. The battery is SO much better now. The Space Black just really takes the look to another level though.

I purchased it to help me at work. I work in the shipping department and when a sale is made online I invoice it and ship it. I used to have to sit at my desk or check there frequently for sales. Now I can be away from my desk doing other things and when a sale is made my watch buzzes me and I can complete it from wherever I am. Also, I don't have to reach into my pocket with dirty hands for my phone. I just raise my wrist and see what is needed. Also I can instantly see message requests from fellow workers and answer the phone. It's a great product. It will be perfect with a few more upgrades to do "all" that my phone does.

The Apple Watch is awesome. Tells the time, tracks my walks and cycling, provides heart rate, so many options for my watch face and so many other apps that mirror my iPhone. I love it!!! Just be careful not to call 911 when changing your watch band.

Decided to invest in this model based on the reviews between the stainless steel and the aluminum. My co-worker has the first gen with the ion glass without protection and that one has so many extremely fine scratches on the display from just regular use. I don't feel the need to use a screen protector on this model, which is great because I think it'd take away from how sleek it looks. So far I've had no issue, battery life is great, end of the day with regular use I still have around 50% and I don't think it impacts the batter life that much of my iphone 6s as well.

Plain and simple, if you are a watch guy or gal this is not for you. If you like tech and a conversation piece then it's good. The battery is pathetic. The screen is just a tad too small for most functionality. It was good as a series 1, but the water resistance of the series 2 is a much needed improvement.

The Apple Watch is a great edition to my watch collection. It is stylish, easy to set up and simple to use. Performs so many functions that I am learning something new about the capabilities of this watch all of the time. It is also very diverse, meaning that a simple change of the band can change the whole look of the watch, so you can dress it up or use it as a sports watch. The Activity Tracker is great for people who want something more functional then just a FitBit. I highly recommend purchasing this watch. You won't be disappointed!

This watch is phenomenal. I almost bought the series 1, but decided to hold off for V2. It was well worth the wait. Many more features plus its water-resistant. Pretty awesome. Had a small issue with the first one I purchased, but Apple was 'on it' and sent me a replacement. Working great----so far

Series 2 Watch seems to last longer from a battery perspective than the original Apple Watch, own both. Like the water resistance added feature.

Received for my birthday, thought it was just gimmicky, but have used it exclusively for over a year. And still find more things that it does. I use it to notify me of calls without having to pull phone out, allowing me to “peek” at caller ID during meetings. Also love the connection to gps for notification of turns. And the Activity monitoring, though annoying as heck, actually is helpful; could turn it off, but need the motivation. This is just a taste, it does so much more. Never had a problem.
