Did you ever try on the Ultra? It looks/feels very different when you put it on than when you see it in promotion pictures.
I wear the 41mm Apple Watch.

I’ve seen photos of people in the Show Off Your Apple Watch thread on here, and sometimes the regular watch just looks hideously large on their wrists.

I’m quite sure the Ultra would be too big for me.

Also, I’ve built up a good selection of official 41mm straps, so I’ll stick with the smaller size. Can’t afford to throw money away.

But I just don’t like the Ultra design, so even if they did release a smaller version, it still wouldn’t appeal to me.
 
You weren’t asking me, but I‘ll tell you anyway;)
I have an Apple One subscription (the all-in one with 2TB of iCloud space) and occasionally use Fitness+ runs, quite nice to get some tips sometimes.
Do you use the other included services much?
 
i wear it all day at work, and the gym. at home it stays on the charger. sometimes when i'm still wearing it at home it feels a little uncomfortable for some reason and i prefer just to leave it off while im winding down the day

I have the Ultra and wear all day except when sleeping and showering. I hate wearing a watch while I sleep, but I did try it at first to get a temp baseline. All that really did was remind me I don’t like sleeping with a watch on. I also don’t like having to use the built in sleep function.

I will switch wrists sometimes if I’m going to be exercising outside to even up the tan lines. 😎

Sometimes I’ll take mine off when I get home for the same reason, but only if I’ve closed my circles.
 
If it's not on the charger it's on my wrist. It comes off only for charging, cleaning, and the TSA.
 
I’ve gone off of mine, so I’m having a day or two without it.

See if I miss it.

Do you ever do this? Or do you wear it always?
Simple I don’t have an AW because I don’t like my wrist cuffed with anything, okay maybe long sleeves but that’s it.
 
Thinking of signing up for Apple Fitness+.

Walking bores me, and biking wouldn’t be enjoyable when it’s peeing down (UK weather.)

With Apple Fitness+, there’s not really many excuses one can come up with to swerve it.

I’ve exhausted my trial period (hardly used it) but I can get a month of All In for free, to see if AF+ will be for me.

If it is, £9.99 per month (£2.50 per week) is pretty good going.

Do you subscribe to Any of Apple’s services?

Nope I don’t. I’m motivated enough without thankfully. I walk, run, and hike for exercise. My gf has a gym membership which allows a guest so I go with her sometimes. But usually it’s just me running primarily.

But hey; whatever motivates is good. Fitness+ is not for me, but it is for many.

I’m English but live in Canada. I despise running in the rain and totally avoid it, but it’s super rare that it’s an issue. I’m headed back there to see my parents next month. Must pack a rain coat! :D
 
I need to measure mine again but I think mine are in the 150ish range. I don't remember exactly. I have seen people with small wrists using the Ultra and I don't think it looks terrible, but I'm more worried about any functionality issues. If the Ultra's larger frame makes it harder for it to detect my heart rate - that's not what I want. I don't think that will be an issue though. Hopefully.
I have small wrists, and the Ultra had no problem alerting me that my heart rate was over 100bpm when I had a pulmonary embolism. In fact fall detection activated and 911 was called when I didn’t respond to my watch. It don’t look no bigger than my S4, and the battery life and ****** screen is a bonus.
 
I wear my Ultra mainly on weekdays to get my work-related notifications and to track my sleep and workouts.

On the weekends I usually wear one of my G-Shocks or maybe my Citizen diver.
 
Wear through the day, leave it on the charger overnight.

If I'm away somewhere over a weekend I tend to leave it home and wear a real watch - the battery life on the Watch is pretty abysmal and I dont always have a good way to charge it. I also tend to take it off and wear a real for the rare occasion I'm at a formal event.
 
All the time except every morning when I arrive at my office. I charge my watch during that period.
 
I wear my watch when I go out to stuff or when I see family or friends but at work and at home I take mine off as at work it could get broke and at home I just don’t need it
 
I've worn a watch 24/7 since I was a child.
I wear my Ultra as I have always worn a traditional watch.
Occasionally, I pop my SS S2 on just for a change of pace. I like the way it looks as an occasional timepiece, but it's not much good as a smartwatch anymore.
