Rumor: Apple Watch Series 7 to Come in Larger 41mm and 45mm Sizes

People literally just can’t wait to complain about any and everythingYoohoo, 1 mm more.
I'm not sure I like the idea of wearing something that is larger on the wrist. Yeah it's only 1 mm, but if they keep growing each year, than 5 years from now you might as well get an Iphone holder for the arm and use that. There are times when I do find the watch a little uncomfortable, specifically later in the day.
This is thinking in present-tense only, is short-sighted & naive. It's going to happen. It's a matter of time.
More likely that the screen size increases without increasing the size of the device itself. Smaller bezels.
That may be misleading. Look at how large the bezels are on the current watches. If those (2mm= on each side?) can be removed along with the addition of an extra .5mm, that's actually a substantial visible area boost.
Still wearing my good old Certina watch (like Rolex Submariner…☺️), so I’m not worried about the 
Watch getting bigger or heavier. But I think the renderings look like those cheap knockoffs that imitates the Watch. I just hope Prosser was wrong about the curves.
(already had S2 and S4, sold the S2 and gave the S4 to my wife (justifies buying a new one right…?), wasn’t impressed by S5 or S6, but I’ll definitely buy S7, I miss all the convenience with theWatch)

I suspect there's a strong probability that is exactly where this is all going. I read on 9to5Mac that the iPhone can logically be replaced by a wearable iDevice. Mine has LTE capability, and that's half the reason I bought the watch. I can, in my fertile, feverish peabrain, envision a watch with a curved display that'll wrap 180º +/- around my wrist. Bring it on, if so.
Of course, that benefits me; I don't know how Apple et al will stay at one trillion in market if they're not selling me two devices anymore.
I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder but I hope the AW7 will look better in reality than in these renderings. I would really like to upgrade from my S3 but I am not sure if the new look is for me...
Omg. I truly hope not. I have a dozen bands (not 3$ knock-offs), and would be devastated. Not that I am upgrading anytime soon. But still!!
