QUOTE(Mavik @ Oct 10 2022, 06:17 PM) Collected mine from the Apple store today.  Showed one of the staff the QR code I received online and he went to pick up the item.  Used my UAG straps instead of the straps that came with the Apple Watch Ultra  Spent about 20+ minutes at the Apple Store setting up the watch (because there is wifi and data there) nice UAG strap...now you can swap between your alpine and this..both nice straps..

QUOTE(MacDaNife @ Oct 13 2022, 07:59 AM) I don't understand why anyone orders from local resellers other than for easy payment schemes. Orders directly to Apple is very secure. some resellers like senheng offer 2nd year warranty extension for free..

QUOTE(Dozz @ Oct 15 2022, 03:45 PM) Collected the Watch from Switch just now. Surprisingly they have few Ultra in stocks for walk in customer. Help my friend get a yellow ocean band one , mine is white ocean (pre ordered). Redeemed Switch’s SURE points for 2 x RM45 to offset the balance.   Wow ready stock! which Switch outlet is that and do they have display unit on shelves?

QUOTE(shockk @ Oct 17 2022, 02:33 PM) Congrats! You bought it via Walk-in?  And be careful with the smaller sizes of the Alpine Loop. There is a high chance the Titanium buckle on the Loop will scratch the top of your AWU titanium body - when you are taking out the Loop from your hand (through your hand). Even for my M size Alpine Loop, I need to be very careful as well. L size would be better but then I think for Asian wrists (on standard slim build Malaysian), it may be too big. Haha. yea it was an impromptu purchase, didnt planned to get it yet actually, just thought of looking at the display, but got stock so grab it there on the spot xD yes I was about to point out on the buckle as well, it already scratched a few times so im looking at getting the ocean loop now..but the alpine feels good on the wrist This post has been edited by dikae: Oct 17 2022, 03:06 PM

QUOTE(chaisin @ Oct 17 2022, 06:07 PM) For Alpine Loop users, here’s how to remove the Watch from your wrist securely and prevent the buckle to knock on the screen that might get scratches. Check this out ⬇️⬇️⬇️ How to prevent case damage when removing Alpine Loopthanks for sharing the link, very helpful!

QUOTE(shockk @ Oct 17 2022, 11:28 PM) Still contemplating whether to add Cellular or not. At Rm18/month by Maxis, it would be burning money if it’s not gonna actually be used. Most of the time my iPhone is with me, even during my runs outside. 🤔 don’t need cellular if you have your iphone with you all the time …save the rm18

QUOTE(andrewtho @ Oct 21 2022, 11:35 AM) This band is so striking to the fact that everyone asked if this is an Ultra 😂 Nice, I'm contemplating to get another band, either the white or midnight ocean.... the white looks super good in your pic xD

QUOTE(andrewtho @ Oct 21 2022, 02:45 PM) The white looks good actually, thou my choice would still be Midnight. Yeah thats true, but still more comfy than the Alpine Loop for sure. Yea alpine not so comfy and the buckle tend to hit the watch easily..yea the white looks good, but I suppose it will turn off white overtime..

QUOTE(andrewtho @ Oct 23 2022, 09:46 AM) Did you completely push in the second holder into place? Because once you adjusted (elongate) it, you need to lock it back into place so the whole piece is tight. My Ocean band is quite snug actually, doesn’t wiggle at all. Only the Alpine band wiggles. yea I’m getting the ocean, don’t really like the alpine…not so comfy as well….still can’t decide midnight or white ocean lol

QUOTE(imboss.. @ Apr 12 2023, 11:57 AM) any shop can suggest selling it? very tempting I think no shops have it, you can try Shopee there’re a few sellers, but if you want someone to do installation for you then look for Shopee seller - Sakurazz. You have to meet at his place though..

QUOTE(imboss.. @ Apr 13 2023, 08:59 AM) thanks for the advised, will find shopee seller sakurazz for this. been longing this product for quite sometime. take note though, it'll transform the watch border into chrome.. so if you like the original look, then i'd suggest not to go with this...

QUOTE(RDoe @ Jun 2 2023, 07:28 AM) If the MicroLED display is the only expected new feature, then maybe not? Apple is working on an updated version of the Apple Watch Ultra that has an improved microLED display, but the device won't launch until the second half of 2025, according to information shared by display analyst Ross Young.https://www.macrumors.com/2023/04/27/apple-...%20Ross%20Young. QUOTE(andrewtho @ Jun 2 2023, 10:08 AM) i doubt a new Ultra will surface this year, next year probably. if you need one, don't think - just get it. once you have it on your wrist, you will understand why you've made the decision haha! Yeap don’t think there will be ultra 2 this year, not even sure what else can they upgrade, it’s overkill as of now..they probably focus more on series 9/10

QUOTE(dikae @ Mar 28 2023, 08:22 PM) never used a case or tempered glass on a watch before and not a fan, but this one is really good..IMOS sapphire..comes in 2 parts, the frame and tempered glass.. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « IMOS just launched a matte version, which I prefer over the shiny/chrome finish, same price. Wifey prefer the shiny so we swapped   Matte close up:
