Get me this Apple Watch 2 in Space gray and it’s game over Apple.

The first version of Ultra was so ugly that it helped me with the decision that I didn’t need to upgrade from my series 7. I’m willing to switch the wristband to make the watch look a bit more “dressy” - but that wouldn’t really help in this case… 😐
So, either a decent look for the next Ultra or more endurance for the regular Watch would be really welcome.

If they offer a darker version it would be nice if the buttons and accent were the colors of the other.

For example, a dark titanium with natural titanium accents and natural titanium with dark titanium accents.

Having the orange circle around the crown is kind of unnecessary since they ONLY offer the AWU with a cellular connection.

Agreed! I wouldn’t mind something like this either. That orange accent gots to go!

Again I just got my AW Ultra in March, I keep my watches for 2-3 years and see nothing compelling in getting one this soon I like the regular titanium color as is do not need a change and I got my new titanium bands shortly after that match it so then I would have to spend more to find matching bands. I do not see a new one if rumors true adding compelling features at another $800 @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️ I already upgraded my macbook, iPad Pro and AW this spring enough for a couple years and I do not have spare cash to do again. No to using credit card I am done having debts and when my current cards paid in next year it s gonna be a cash only or have any purchases paid in 30 days same as cash plan LOL @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️ Saving my money for the 16 ProMax and its rumored features if not that great then maybe 17 Pro LOL and we wont talk about Vison Pro yet I have to see how it does before I am remotely interested
 
I wish I could get the regular aluminium watch with the battery of the Ultra. I don't need the rest of its features, I just want to never have to worry about battery life ever again.

EDIT: @lkrupp what a weird thing for you to disagree with. Please elaborate. Do you just hate good battery life or is there something I'm missing here?

For me, it's that plus the siren for hiking. Bears and cougars around here plus I'm already in a relationship... :-D

That being said, my S7 is still going strong, so I can wait and see or skip another year.

Nah @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️ I know that you are into more fashionable things for your AW’s than I. I like my third party titanium AW ultra bands I purchased shortly after the AW Ultra in March. They look good for me and I am not into changing bands for occasions but you can ask my wife I am not into styles that much LOL I stick to one thing. Most I have are 30 plus tye dye T-shirts you see me in a lot @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️ ;)🙃
 
Very happy with the first gen Ultra watch. I do not chase colors, but see if the new medical related features include something I am concerned about can trigger a purchase..
There you go @switz that is me as well. I just got my Ultra in March and tend to keep my AW’s for a couple years til significant feature comes out. If some major new medical feature gets added then I would jump sooner but that does not seem to be in the rumors so I am good. I tend to stick with one band. For the ultra which I got because I like the features especially battery length it chose one of the matching third party titanium bands that looks great with it and I have no inclination to chase after other titanium colors in purchasing the rumored Ultra 2
