Will we be upset if Apple Watch X means our existing, extensive watchband collection no longer works? - eviltoast

Per title. We knew it was coming some day, tho perhaps not this soon. Will you be upset if you need ugly adapter to make your extensive + expensive watchband collection work?

    No, after 10 years of band compatibility I think that’s more than enough for an accessory. The Apple Watch innovation can’t be stopped to support the previous bands.

      What innovation would require a switch up other than making more money? Design doesn’t need to change to welcome innovation imo

        imo it could look more seamless going into the watch. pixel watch has a clever design.

          That would be a nice change. What I don’t like at the moment is the part that you push into the watch. In some combinations the colors don’t match and look just bad.
