It is a product that meets a specific purpose. If you have a need for it then I think itās an incredible watch. The emergency SOS feature is going to save lives.Uuugghhh...I hate to say it, and I'll even admit I'm a little scared to bring it up in here...but...anyone like the new Apple Ultra watch?

Thatās the feature I meant. Itās free for the first two years. Apple knows that some of the features are for the few but thatās what a halo model is. Kind of like a GT500 vs a regular GT.That emer SOS on the watch isn't new though, is it? That satellite thing on the phone is kinda cool though. But it's a paid service, and I doubt anyone but the outmost adventurers that may actually need it will pay for it.
Duh, I just realized the satellite SOS is on the iPhone 14 Pro not the watch. It's still an awesome piece of technology.Oh for sure. Iām a little surprised the satellite feature isnāt on this watch considering the target audience and features. I wonder how many people will do something stupid with it just to try it out, LOL. Hopefully not moany.
Nah there's tons of people who will get it that don't really need it. Its just a gimmick and it marketing plays it off well. Its the same with vital features, that gives you your HR and O2 Saturation.That emer SOS on the watch isn't new though, is it? That satellite thing on the phone is kinda cool though.

Come on Chris, please. This is a watch thread, a friendly watch thread. Let's keep Cars & EV's out of it. In this thread all kinds of watches can co-exist peacefully.Apple Watches are the EV of the Watch World. Yep, neat technology, can do a lot like GPS, pulse, O2 sats, texting, communication with your phone or time, but in order to take advantage you are married to it on your wrist. I definitely prefer mechanical/automatic watches. Simple with 1 function, tell time or perhaps a chronograph or GMT Function, maybe an alarm. Besides mechanical watches don't report to Google, Siri or Alexa your every move. So what, you can change the watch image on the screen, I will just change my watch.

That why we have two wrists!I love my apple watch. I also love my 1884 Navitimer.
Very nice!Picked this up about a month ago. Iām a huge fan of the spring drive watches.
