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?

For me, the biggest draw increased battery life. I do the occasional overnight hike or canoe and like to have a watch keep up. The other big draw to me was the stronger case and the raised bezel around the screen. I turn wrenches for a living and often bump my watch in tight spots.

Both of these features played out extremely well and I love the watch over the past year.
