I gave up my Apple Watch after 9 years and feel free.

I’ll give up the Apple Watch when they release a ring similar to oura.

That would be a day one buy for me.

Ha, were showing our age / generation by that remark, and I know it.

Decided to part ways with my Apple Watch Ultra 2. From owning the original 9 years ago and wearing one on my wrist up until now, I felt it was time to try and see just what it feels like to rid myself of it.
I purchased a Omega as my new wearable.
Sold the Apple Watch on eBay.
Now, I feel comfortably free and, for some reason, clear headed.

Give it a try.

I took off my Apple Watch 7 SS after three years and purchased a $44 timex indeglow and immediately found that not having to charge it 🤬 every day along with my other Apple products was a breath of fresh air. Some of the included Apple Watch complications, I never used or used very little and I was thinking why did I spend almost $800 for this darn thing three years ago and have to be almost a slave to it, charging it up each and every day? So I took it off, and got myself a Timex. Everything else I do with my iPhone. So far, I’m very happy.

Been using an Apple Watch since Series 0 launch. I cannot envision a day when I will ever NOT wear an Apple Watch.

The fact alone that I don't miss notifications on-the-go is reason enough. Combined with paying for most things these days at stores, how much I lean on it at the gym, etc.
