Do you think they will replace them?
I’m quite bored of the current offerings, so I truly hope so.

So, apparently 2 faces are being removed in the next big update [MERGED]

I haven't followed the rumors or beta experiences this year like I usually do… Which 2 faces are being removed?
I always hope for new watch faces, but rarely end up using more than the few I already cycle through. So, I guess first off, I'm more curious to find out if I'll need replacements for ones I use! 😂

Chronograph and Siri I believe. Hopefully someone can confirm.
I don't use either so no loss for me. But new faces would be nice too.

They could remove the Artists - this also would free German users to see the hilarious description "fe:male Artists" ("Künstler:innen" transferred to English here), as we strictly have to distinguish between male artists and female artists...
I personally do not like the faces anyway.

Yep it was the Explorer watch face, Siri, and Chronograph that were removed. @fran24 unless you are talking about a different face, I am on the beta of watchOS 11 and both Numerals Duo and Numerals Mono are still on the watch.
I totally understand the removal of the Siri watch face, with Liveactivies the widgets screen can now stay on the watch when the wrist is down. This has pretty much become the Siri watch face. Explorer seems a little harder to understand unless new watch faces are coming. Pretty likely being that the watches are rumored to be getting bigger. Maybe we get something even better.

I did a side by side for someone previously talking about the Explorer face going away. You can get pretty close with Wayfinder, assuming that's on all watches, not just the Ultra.
They may very well update the way finder and add it to all the watches. Thats the Explorer but better.
Oh ok, my bad. I haven't see anyone use that one in a while. I forgot about it totally. Again maybe this is making room for some cool new watch faces for the 10. I mean I think the Modular Ultra knocked it out of the park last year, so hopefully we get something like that for the 10.
This x 10000. I'm bored as hell with the digital watch face choices and this is the watch face I want the most for my regular AW.
Wayfinder would be a perfect replacement for Explorer if one could remove the seconds hand when the Analog Seconds complication appears in the bottom sub-dial…
I guess I mostly just wish there were more customization options given to us on the faces and complications we already have. That would go a long way towards keeping us from getting bored or disappointed when old faces are retired.
I don’t see how Apple won’t see the demand. I think they would kill it if they offered it for the new 10. It’s by far the best watch face offered on the Apple Watch.
Honestly I'm still annoyed that it was an Ultra exclusive. They could have easily made a AW version but you've got to drive those Ultra sales.
I can’t disagree with that. I thought for sure they wouldn’t add it to the Ultra 1 for that very reason. Was very surprised.Honestly I'm still annoyed that it was an Ultra exclusive. They could have easily made a AW version but you've got to drive those Ultra sales.
"This year we're bringing it to the Apple Watch X - Starts at $ 499 and we think you're gonna love it"
I'm really bummed that Apple removed the numerals face in watch OS 11.
Look at this beauty, the perfect weekend face. I used it a ton, and boy did I adore it!
You too could have had this face, until a few days ago when Apple mercilessly yanked this feature from your wrist. 😭😤

If we had third party watch faces we wouldn't be having these issues. It's so frustrating.
Your favorite face got removed.
What would be my favorite face (Modular Ultra) isn't available on the Series 10.
But we can wait to see what small amount of watch faces we get next time.

They should allow folks to download removed watch faces to their devices if they want to use it. Some people get attached to a face even if it's not popular with most. Sucks that Apple would just yank it completely.
Go tell them you miss it!

Might be able to. I know there is a "Save to Files" option to save a Watch face to disk. And can import the files (do that with holiday specific faces I use). Never have tested with Apple provided faces and or ones that have been terminated.
EDIT: but, yes, I get it, Save does no good once the face has been pulled.
