Just syncing now. It's it bloody lovely, very small, not liking the strap much, feels good on but not easy to put on, I'm probably doing it wrong.

Battery was 70% when I turned it on now 35%, I've used it so much I I've strained my neck, at least 4 long'ish calls included which is rare for me.

My friend at work got her Watch today. Have to admit it does look rather nice, and she was certainly very pleased with it.

From the tech / design aspect, yes, I like them. However, I still have absolutely no desire whatsoever to purchase one. If someone gave me one, I may consider wearing it, depends on type / model (the Edition isn't for me, much rather if it were something other than gold, not my bag really)

In no particular order.

Checking in at the airport.
Sending dick pictures.
It's a periscope on your wrist.
Making your iPhone beep so you can find it.

Got my watch sport yesterday. A few things I noted were the size of the box it came in, wasn't expecting that! The neat new power brick, I hope Apple swap this design to all devices.
So far I've had it on since about 10 o'clock this morning and it's at 70% battery life remaining. I charged it fully last night. It's also a shame it didn't come with a better way of charging it rather than just a cable, some sort of stand would of been nice.

The non sports use the box as a stand. I'll be buying or making one.

Mine was put on a 4am, used way more than you'd call normal and is at 38%.
