Apple typically sticks with a new design for at least a few years.

Given we didn’t see that rumoured square edged re-design, but a whole new even rounder and slimmer design, do you think the AW10 is the form factor for the next few iterations? At least till AW12?

So the same, but new colours and hopefully a return to a matte black version. Even better would be space grey, but I doubt that’s coming back.

yes, 3 years to be exact, historically:
S0/1/2/3
S4/5/6
S7/8/9
S10/???

But, you just never know ;)

I wonder if that will be the case with the Ultra too.
We’re only in the 2nd year so potentially another tweaked version in 2025 before a new design in 2026.

since we are kinda on Ultra 2.1 (black option this year I call 2.1) it remains to be seen if the design will be the same for Ultra 3 since, assuming it gets released in 2025 ...
For me, don't care so much about the design, I am waiting for new health sensors ...

Not expecting to see a design change for an Apple watch in the immediate future. With Apple advertising it as the thinnest and largest, Series 11 and most probably the 12 too will be exactly the same.

For the series 11, expecting new colours only. Personally I would like to see the polished finish for aluminum for all the colours next year.
