Why the Ultra? (alien.top)

If you bought an Ultra, why did you choose se it over the regular Apple Watch?

When I saw it announced last year, I thought to myself “no one is going to buy that”. I just thought there were too few features that most people don’t need. But now I see them everywhere. I don’t see the appeal of increased battery life being worth twice the price of the standard watch.

Why did you buy the Ultra and is it worth the price to you?

Prove me wrong I guess?

I was going to get a SS model when my S3 broke. Realizing that a SS model was $749 and I was probably going to scratch it up, I thought about the Ultra. I like the look of the Ultra with a Ti band as much as a SS with steel band.

In terms of the features, more durable is always better, and now never worrying about bringing a charger on an overnight is awesome. The other features are cool as well. I kind of see it like a dive watch, even if you only dive with it a few times it’s still a nice accessory to wear.
