My first

Here's a couple of shots of my new SD. Bought last week after a lot of deliberation, with plenty of help from this forum. I'm absolutely loving it, and I've got to say that it wears incredibly well. No wrist sloppiness here. And this has been described before, but the shape of the case, not sitting completely flush on the wrist, allows it to breathe and actually feels quite comfortable on a hot summer day.
