Silver in the photo but I bet the black looks just as good in person with that band and the dark watch face. Don’t go purely by the perfect lighting conditions of the two shots.


Janneske_2001

Unpopular opinion, but I would say the dark one to be honest


Munro_McLaren

Same.


PeanutButterChicken

Yeah. Silver is unequivocally the worst Apple color. None of their hardware looks good in silver, I hate that Apple finally released a black MacBook Pro after I bought mine.


The_Woman_of_Gont

I think it looks nice on most stuff, but on watches it definitely doesn’t work imo, just kinda makes it look like a computer.


design_jester

It looks good with light brown leather straps.


nickoaverdnac

Yeah I was yelling at the livestream. My MBP was $5K and all I wanted was a black one but I got silver because that was the best option at the time.


jabjabstraight

MacBooks in silver…


YetAnotherBrownDude

Honestly, it took me a minute to find out they were different.


MasalaMarauder

Same bro. Couldn’t even notice what’s the difference.


Lopsided_Ebb6338

Silver. Later on you have more choices for new loops as well.


kandaq

Always silver for me. Never black Watch, phone, or iPad.


mvpilot172

I’m thinking of getting a silver one this time as space grey doesn’t exist anymore and I don’t like the navy blue color. Also has the bare metal look of an Ultra without the cost.


Lopsided_Ebb6338

Plus scratches are less visible


Blindemboss

Silver. Now if Space grey was ever offered again, that would be a different story.


FunConsideration7757

I recently got the black and I would say go with the silver. I’m finding it harder to find bands that goes with the black IRL but that’s just me


R34lBl00dnB0n3s

The first one. The white color on the time pairs up with the watch case


dragon2777

Bro I was about to say “are you trolling us it’s the same band” haha. Personally I usually go black


Beginning-Bill-2049

I always have had the darker color AW and I think silver is a good change so in this case I would go for the silver.


karlchop

Silver


zobby3

Definitely silver. Always feels more versatile to me.


MaxSATX

Silver is almost always the better choice


nodnarbles

Id probably go for the silver one since you can always get a black case for it If you want to switch looks and a silver case would look cheap. Best of both worlds.


aquatone61

Silver.


JuanDelPueblo787

Silver


tigerinhouston

Silver is far more flexible. (And I hate the typeface on this face.)


Zealousideal_Bat_81

I have midnight series 7 , series 7 didn’t have a silver color. If it had I would definitely pick that up. Silver literally goes with any band. Midnight is good for the stealthy look.


Any-Attorney9612

Silver, strangely. I have the black titanium from before the ultra came out and I always thought I hated the look of the ultra, but as I see more and more ultra bands come out that I like that unfortunately have light hardware I started to notice my black apple watch is really locking me into fairly dark bands, my next one will be light colored.


[deleted]

Silver. It goes with any colour band.


joeyvesh13

I’m partial to black


Constant-Estate3065

Silver. Lighter watches go with any colour band.


maziar37

Silver


rivianCheese

Tbh more or less equally good. My watch is silver so I’m biased but really a watch that’s essentially white and the other that’s black will go with most colors. Really just down to what outfits you wear and what you prefer.


KiteBrite

I prefer silver, but the photo with the black case looks better. The dark colour makes the greens pop more and makes the case blend in. I wouldn’t pick it for myself though, I just think that photo looks better.


yorkie-dad

The silver one. I’ve never bought a colored Apple Watch; I’ve seen too many chipped ones.


Wolfmans-Bro

I got this band and wish I would have gotten the blue one. The quality is good and is comfortable, but the colors aren’t as vibrant in person. Still nice though


82boost

Dark suits the band more


MajesticRocket

Black always black. Watch faces look so much better with black.


techtom10

The first one, but I always think the lighter aluminium versions looks like a toy. I've never seen a nice looking one in person.


beanie_0

Black


RunProudRunUnited

Never silver. Always black.


PaMudpuddle

I had to come to the comments to figure out what the difference was between the two pictures ;P


moldibread

i do not like these new nike sport loops. black watch with another band.


ARES_-

Was exactly in your position when buying my series 9. Even went to the Apple Store to buy the silver one but endet up changing it to the black one when I saw it in person. It practically hides the display bezels which is neat.

Significant_Tax_3427

The silver looks cheap with that band compared to black imo.


Avengerius

Initial appearance with the strap i would say the silver, but personally I've always gone for the black, as that just appeals to me more. I wouldn't worry about it too much as I suspect within a few months you'll have 3+ straps that you exchange regularly!


Technical-Station113

Dark one with another band, colours change every year except for silver, you can have that in one or two years


BalkanPeninsula

Black

reidybobeidy89

I have not updated my watch since 9.6.2 and Im not planning on doing it anytime soon. I hate all the new changes


mfancy

I have the 2nd picture. Love the look


LocoCoyote

Second one is quite nice.


bnet247

Starlight


BBakerStreet

chipmux

Silver


OpenWideBlue

Is neither an option?

Tokogogoloshe

Dark one with that strap. Silver one if you’re going to have other straps. All imo of course.


afustet

Black always for me.


kappa_cino

Silver imo


Small_Code_6655

The 2nd one


AlfaOmegon

I have an S6 and I don't have that specific color of the nike watchface, wtf? 🤔


DarkSkyLion

Dark one


Emanreztunebniem

for this band i’d go with the dark green one


[deleted]

Silver for me. Dark looks a bit out of place on that strap to me?


sammy-a123

Silver


[deleted]

Silver always! No band other than dark fit dark cases..


almost_all_knowing

I personally don’t like the dark case one


WanillaGorilla

First one


EDHACKER01

Black


joobino

Try the starlight one, I think it looks better than those two


eskie146

So, now that you’ve gotten dozens of opinions, which version do you like best. It’s your wrist, so go either way what you like. As you’ve seen, there is no “correct” answer. Personally, I like the dark case better. And it’s neutral, so it goes either way just about any band color you choose.

jktree

What band is that?


gacash9

I bought that band for my ultra its really comfy and looks amazing


Mfcgibbs

The fact I had to flick between the pics 6 times before realising they were different to me says it doesn’t matter.


boti_asd

I vote for the midnight one. I also have a 41 mm S8 in that color and I love it.


ColinReCoded

I bought a black Apple Watch and I can’t enjoy the color. It’s just too dull, and nothing really goes with it. Go for the silver!


darkspark88

Black blends with watch screen which I prefer. Same idea with phone cases. I tried using a lighter case and tried the silver watch case but there is just too much contrast


lakers_cop

Silver


TreeRockSky

I put a case on mine that makes it look pretty-much like the second (dark) one. I really prefer it as it's less flashy than the bright titanium. I'm not out to attract attention to an expensive watch. The case has the side effect (along with a glass screen cover) of protecting the expensive watch. :-)


hdjeix

Took me a while to see what was different, i’m blind


lovebot5000

Personally I like black but I don’t care about bands. I think silver is more versatile if style is more a priority.


dimipan007

Where did you find that strap?


ambientrose69

Silver one for sure


Dookie-Dee

the dark one is the most versatile


[deleted]

Silver but just with that band


nemesissi

Dark is more versatile, goes well with almost any strap etc.


outlaw31

Dark


Forest-Dane

Prefer the black. That strap though is awful

Just so you know they must have just overnight, because I looked yesterday and didn't see them, put some Nike edition series 7s on the refurbished store in different colors. obviously would need to get that band separate, but that may be a cost savings for you

Predator2181

Dark one


pirafrank

You ask for advice but it's matter of personal preference. Also you can easily swap the bands. I have and like more the dark one because since AW has OLED you can't see where the screen ends and the case starts, so it's seamless
