True. Like Steve Jobs had forgot it when he wanted iMac in multiple colours, or insisted having gigantic scenic Apple Stores entrances, or agonised designing Apple Park, and sold iPods in multiple colours and so on and so on. Weird that only these coloured faces trigger you though.
Got a tip for us?

Religion is a preference. Sexuality is an identity.
Yet more faces where digital seconds are unavailable. How utterly useless.
Is Apple ever going to change the styling of the Apple Watch to something more appealing? This one looks so much better, is less expensive, and doesn't push a political agenda down our throats.
Go ZX-81. My first computer. I still have it and 2 brand new spares.
I support Apple to support whatever causes they want
However I would like to see some Black Pride, or Free Tibet or whatever causes for marginalized people who aren’t being represented. You can be exclusive by simply targeting your inclusiveness

Pride isn't about sex, but rather identity. The rainbow represents inclusiveness, not anything having to do with sex per se. It's only natural that this cause has principally been advanced by the LGBTQ population, which has been discriminated against in many ways. When many of us wear things like this, we aren't necessarily doing it to tout anything about ourselves (I'm mostly straight), but rather to let those still in the closet know they have support.
The problem is there’s plenty who do care about the sexuality of others and try to force their opinions in to the bedrooms of others.
These watch faces are hideous though, just far too busy.
The faces are too busy for my taste but I would try them out just as homage to the classic Apple rainbow. I get that these are Pride Rainbows but they could just as easily be classic Mac rainbows (I know the Apple rainbow had horizontal lines and the colors weren't in this order but those are details many people might miss).

Not really. Both would be considered an identity, and a preference. But not sure what this has to do with a watch face other than one group it is okay to shun, and the other it is not.
Religion is a huge part of my identity.
None of these laws put limits to what LGBT+ can and cannot do. The fact that they're affected (positively and/or negatively) doesn't deny any right (1A, 2A, workplace, etc.).
Too much in these for me. I really like the one from last year and use it on occasion. I'll bet kids will like these. I'm old. 
It’s not at all divisive, pride isn’t a political side. If your politics is based on what other people do with their anatomy you have much bigger issues.
LOL....Are you really using the ACLU, VOC, and The Daily Beast as legit references?
ACLU - No explanation needed.
VOX - Vox is an American news and opinion website owned by Vox Media.
The Daily Beast - The Daily Beast is a left-leaning American news and opinion website
My first computer too! I still have it. With the 16kb RAM pack.
lol, trump derangement syndrome is real. cc: you
And what exactly is the political message Apple is sending here?
Good to know you realise you’re cynical. Apple is about inclusion, and yes that’s part of their brand, but with Tim as the CEO I find it hard to be cynical about their motivations here.
Wait? Both aren’t mutually exclusive?
If you don’t know anything about a subject, then why the need to express your opinion? Because, you’re not just “asking”, but trying making a statement and failing to do so because clearly you’re not a member of the LGBTQ community.
I've noticed that people who are so upset about LGBT causes also tend to use phrases about things being shoved down their throat. It makes you think.
So now anyone that disagrees is a bigot? What exactly are their thoughts? You left those out of your comment.
