The new Apple Watch model we all hope to see on September 7 could bring a change that many of us feared: the new size could require wider straps.
Since Apple launched its first model of Apple Watch, it has not changed its strap system, which has made it easy for us to build up a good collection over the years to be able to change straps depending on the situation. or simply because we feel like it. However, this year we expect a new model, larger and with a more “raw” look, in the style of more sporty watches. This new model, which many of us have been waiting for a long time, may require strap design changewhich should be slightly wider to fit the new watch.
Does that mean the current bands won’t work with the new Apple Watch? Not necessarily, although it can happen. If we trust the design of current straps, the area that attaches to the watch case is wider than the strap itself, so it is possible to create wider straps without modifying the attachment system. It’s the alternative that those of us who already have a good collection of bracelets would love the most, some of which aren’t cheap. Although aesthetically they might not be perfect in a larger watch, this would be a solution that would make everyone happy. But it can also happen that the hook is different, which would mean that those of us who would switch to the new smartwatch would have to start a new collection again. There is not much time left to find out, because in just over a week we will have the Apple presentation event in which we will see the new iPhone 14 and the new Apple Watch, with all its specifications and prices .
