I know there are some users on this forum that have more than one Apple Watch.

So how many Apple Watches do you own?
What series are they?
Do you wear them all? (for different reasons or occasions?)

For me I have 7 in which 5 are currently being used.

In use:
S6 44mm Graphite SS
S6 44mm Black Unity
S5 44mm SS
S5 44mm Space Black SS
S5 44mm SS (Work Watch)

Not in Use: (due to battery swelling issue)
S0 42mm SS
S0 42mm Sport

Wow how frequently do you switch them up? I only have two: S6 SS Graphite and S5 SS Silver. Graphite mostly during workdays with black sport/leather band and silver for weekends with different sport bands/loops.

The S6's I wear on the weekends, the S5's I wear during the week for work. I switch them out depending on what I am wearing that day.

Just one - Nike SE in black. It’s great for casual or even smart casual use, but would I wear it with a suit? Even with a black suit it’s not a great fit. I’m working at home these days so don’t need to wear a suit but if I was in the office on a regular basis I’d get some nicer straps.

A second watch? Not for cosmetic purposes, no I don’t think so. Although if AW7 was spectacularly good then that’s a scenario where I might then keep both.

Hmm, I don't think I've worn a suit in 10 years. The only time I wear a tie is if I am in trouble or I want more money. Or somebody died.
With the pandemic, I haven't even worn long pants for a year.
And looks like even after pandemic, I will not actually have a real office any longer, and be working remotely pretty much 99%. My coworkers and clients are now used to seeing me on Zoom in T-shirts. They don't care.
I think it's great!
So, the point is, I don't feel the need to have a watch "for work" and "for home."

- S2 SS
- S3 Aluminum black
- S6 SSG

I like some variety, for me it‘s not just the features or the speed. The S2 isn‘t the quickest one of course, but still looks great and I like to wear it (same goes for the S3). Plus, some straps go great with the SSG but not so much with the others and vice versa :)

Two, a S1 and a S4. Only currently use the S4. The Infograph face on the S4 is perfect for me so can’t see going back to the S1. Periodically switch among 3 different bands.

I have an S5 SG Nike that I was trading in with Apple to upgrade to an S6 Silver Nike, but they sent it back to me! In the meantime I had bought myself an SE SG because it was on sale and I had rewards at Best Buy.

I like the SE for everyday wear at work. I'm using the silver Nike for my morning workouts and on the weekends. I'll either sell the S5 or maybe use it out on the boat this summer so if it gets any more scratched up or I lose it i won't care as much.

Glad I'm not the only one with multiple watches!

I did have two (Series 3 and 5) but recently gave the Series 3 to a friend who had her's get shattered. It was doing no good sitting in a cabinet uncharged which would just eat the battery eventually and my 5 is so well-built (and since WatchOS 7 the main bugs it had are fixed) I didn't see any reason to keep the older model nor do I care about upgrading (I'm an if it ain't broke, don't fix it kinda guy).

Unless Apple drastically changes it (round screen, ditching the side button and just having a crown, and making the crown capable of bringing up Notification Center or Control center from the main screen, etc) I don't see a point in upgrading to a 6 or higher anyway, plus I'm trying to avoid needless consumerism. Only upgrade or replace if I physically break it and can't fix it myself.

Same for me, variety is the spice of life so they say, I agree with the straps, some just go better with different watch finishes.

S0 42mm SS
S4 44mm GPS + Cellular, aluminum silver

I haven't worn the S0 since I've had the S4. All fashion "modification" comes from changing bands - the Milanese Loop from the S0 looks just fine with the silver aluminum when I feel the need to dress up. Most of the rest of the time I wear a black Sport Loop, which I find most comfortable and easy to fasten. I have a few other assorted bands, but they don't really get much use once I move onto the next new one.

I also have one - S4 Graphite. I can't see the point of owning multiple Apple Watches. I should upgrade, but I am going to wait and see what the S7 offers.

Owning muliple Watches does provide you a backup if you break your primary, I suppose.

If and when I upgrade, it will be many generations ahead, likely when we get far more medical sensors/features besides just ECG and a VO2 monitor.

Literally hasn't been a reason to upgrade my S4 so far. Perhaps Apple will release something this year that tempts me, other than another minor incremental update.

I have one. I think it's a Series 4, but I don't honestly remember. I used to have two, but I got tired of updating them both and gave one away. I used to upgrade them every year, but that got to be silly. I only have one wrist that I wear a watch on, anyway.
