Today has come the day that I have decided to sell my Apple Watch and return to traditional watches.

Bye bye the lack of interesting and truly customisable faces!!!

Bye bye having to charge the watch every an single day!!

Bye bye WatchOS 10 annoying problems!!!

Bye bye spend more than 400€ every 2 or 3 years on a device that will become obsolete!!!

I know that I left behind advantages that I will miss, but the negative aspects have been able to… who knows, maybe I will come back, but now my way is traditional watches along with activity

Is anyone in or has been in my situation?

    I’ve been there. Gave up AW around gen 4 or 5. Had exactly same comments you had (well except watchOS 10).

    Result

    - I have spent so much money on mechanical watches I would cry (talk about interesting faces, complications and tech). AW price is change compared to that.

    - Mechanical watches do scratch faster than AW

    Only 2 years later realized I actually like having health data, had medical problem and only the old data showed the doctors that they are wrong. Immediately upon release went to store and got Ultra and never looked back again.

    And yes, I still like mechanical watches…
