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?

      Nah, they’ll do away with bands, you’ll need an embedded wrist socket.

      I actually think this might be true, obviously not a dongle in the traditional sense but an adapter of sorts to allow the previous bands to fit.

      If Apple doesn’t make it, I’m sure a 3rd party would, and the patents on the current watch mechanism has got to be expired by now? 🤔 so I think it’d be easy for someone else to make an adapter to connect them with any new system.
