S/M = small to medium, typically 130-180mm; M/L mean medium to large, typically 150-200mm. 1 inch equals 25mm, so if you have an eight-inch wrist, you'll want the M/L band.

Going through the choices on the Apple store app, some of them say ,"s/l" "m/l". What do they mean? Again, thanks.

ET,

This really is a question of personal taste.  Personally,I find the default band a little too casual.  I wanted something I would be comfortable wearing when dressed up.  So I have the Milanese band—at least I think that’s what it’s called.  It’s a metal band with clasp, and I like it much better than any of the bands that come with the watch.

Another thing to remember is that you are not limited to Apple’s band selection.  You can also buy a band from Amazon.  That’s what my husband did, and he’s been very happy with his.
Best,
Donna

Steve and Donna,
   Appreciate this. I am quite willing to save myself $100. My iPhone is always with me.

   What about the watch band? If I was in walking distance of an Apple store, I could go there and look.Other than colors, is the default band decent? Thanks.

Hi ET,
I agree with everything that others have said.  The one thing I would add is that personally, I don’t really like taking phone calls on my watch.  This is, of course, subjective, but I mention it because if I remember correctly, you have hearing loss, and the reason I don’t like using the watch for phone calls, is that the sound isn’t very good.  It might be something that wouldn’t be useful for you, and that that case, the option of using your watch without your phone would be less wortwhile.  I don’t carry my phone with me all the time.  When I’m at home I set it down and leave it in one place, and it still syncs with the watch.  As you can probably tell, personally, I don’t think the cellular version is worth the extra money.
Best,
Donna

Hello,
   Looking at the options that are available. Do I want cellular? About the watch bands, anything special about those or is the default band good enough. Appreciate the feedback.
