there's going to be something right?

From the existing threads already created by our own community no less, I'm going with....

SCRATCHGATE!!
 
pre-ordergate
deliverygate
launchgate
bandgate
scratchgate
crowngate
watergate (deja vu...)
too-smallgate
watchOSgate

Let the "Gates" begin!!!
 
Guess none of you got the memo. Gate is so 1970s.

The new suffix is ghazi

Scratchghazi
Bendghazi
Watchghazi
Etc

Yes. There are fear out there, and there are people who want to stoke that fear. You could see that when the Watch in the photo has dust or strange reflections someone will immediately came in and say "scratches" and someone else will echo it on and on. It's herd mentality at its best (or worse).

Bandgate: i.e. faulty mechanism not holding the bands in place. Watches go flying every where, total chaos. Cats and dogs living together.

That would be interesting to see how Apple handles it, even if its not a wide spread issue. If the band comes loose and the watch falls and is damaged, who is responsible? Is it Apple because the bad didn't do what it was supposed to do, or is it the customer because they might not have attached the band properly or must have been using it in a way it wasn't designed to be used (hard to make that case since its a sports watch)?
