Will we be upset if Apple Watch X means our existing, extensive watchband collection no longer works? (alien.top)

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?

the past and current selection of original watch bands by apple is trash. i don’t understand why people pay the apple tax for it. i have a few modern buckles i got at discount and they aged so bad. i wear the nylon sport loop 100% of the time because of micro-adjustment ability

    Ohhhh!! Ok. Any bands that have velcro aren’t my fave. Dust and hair collect on them

    I have very sensitive skin and apple just doesn't cater to that, despite their claims otherwise. I would like to see bands made from more natural materials like cotton, wool, linen, etc... apple likely doesn't do it because plastic is cheap as shit lol. that $50 sport loop costs like 5 cents to make.

    Def agree on profit margin. Sorry about your skin sensitivity. I’m like that about cheap metal jewelry. I hope Apple will listen and create TRUE hypoallergenic models for you. Hope you’ve gone on their feedback site to say this.
