I was looking into trading in my S8 for when the S9 is launched, and even though it's a mint SS model, Apple only offered £150 for it, which is a joke!

No need to say that I'll be keeping it, if I upgrade.

If you're like me, or you just like collecting Apple Watches, how many do you own?

Wishing you all well.
 
One is enough for me, and generally there doesn't seem much changes from generation to generation. I survived with a S0 to a S6 or S7 (I actually forget when I bought this).

I have an s2 and s4 and an s6.

The s4 is still pretty good. Performance pretty much similar to s6; but my s6 has cellular. Performance wise the s4 and s6 are fine.

The s2 is feeling VERY old at this point.

Looking at an Ultra2 when they drop. Mainly for the battery life.


edit:
Once you commit to stainless, nice band and cellar.... the ultra isn't THAT much more for so much more battery life, etc.
 
Yes I hope they bring titanium back too , my one is stainless steel and feels very heavy tbh

Dont like the look of the ultra at all

Wish at the time I’d got the titanium version as it was only a hundred quid more , oh well
I really don’t like the look of the Ultra.

I have a SS S8 which I love, so hopefully they bring back a regular titanium, which would give me a good reason to upgrade.

I only have my series 5 stainless. I’m not sure I’m going to replace it. I like the look of the Ultra, but I’ve been wearing my other watch more. I probably would have completely switched back If my watch could be read in the dark.
 
I've kept the original watch for historical nostalgia, but I've traded in all other watches when I upgrade. So I have the one I'm using now (S8), and the original watch in a drawer.

I currently have my Ultra and S7 SS SG. I’ve had and passed on to family members, S6, S5, S4, S0. I have over 40 straps and have made a few of my own with paracord.
