Next September, the Apple Watch will celebrate ten years since the launch of its first generation in 2014. In recent months, everything seemed to indicate that Apple was preparing a special launch for this tenth generation. However, the latest information released moves us away from this hypothesis and brings us closer to the fact that this is another generation: with changes, yes, but nothing beyond the changes observed in the other generations.
