Will you buy a blue Apple Watch series 6? (Rumour)

No, It would clash with my outfits and bands. I like neutral colors that I can pair with anything. Not a surprise though. I only ever get black, or the closest equivalent, iPhones/iPads.
I love my Product RED XR, but for a watch, it'd have to be neutral: Space Gray or Silver. A blue watch case might be handsome, but I like changing bands too much, and I like a variety of colors, so the watch has gotta go with everything.
Only cheap aluminum for me. Goes with everything, including my bank account.
This is the truest statement ever and I wholeheartedly agree!!!
I like space black although I might be tempted to buy blue, depending on the depth of color. I am more interested in features and impressing the ladies with the power of my Dick Tracey watch, versus what color it is.
No. Blue sounds tacky. I think when you think of a watch, traditionally we look at aluminum, stainless steel, standard materials that give the watch the appeal when it comes to accessorize it. When I think of something like a colored blue watch, that seems like that would be geared more towards a teenager wanting to match their Nike shirt for the day. Personally, I like the more mature side to watch with leather bands, stainless links, etc.
Seems like a dubious rumor. Sometimes Watch colors have color-coordinated with iPhones, often not.
Watch Series 5 comes in Silver, Space Gray, or Gold (aluminum and stainless steel), Titanium or Space Black (titanium), and White (ceramic)
Meantime, iPhone 11 - RED, Yellow, White, Green, Black, Blue
iPhone 11 and 11 Pro Max - Silver, Space Gray, Gold, Midnight Green
There was no Midnight Green Series 5 (or RED, Yellow, White, Green, Black, or Blue). There was no Titanium iPhone to match the Titanium Watch...
Would I buy a Watch to match my iPhone, regardless of color? No. To me, they don't seem the kind of things that need to color-coordinate. My Watch is worn, so I do want it to look good on my wrist and alongside my normal (very casual) wardrobe. When I need to dress it up, I change bands (I wear a Sport Loop for everyday, and a Milanese Loop for dress-up). My phone is either in my pocket or my hand. It's in a brown leather protective case, so the color of the phone barely matters.
That said, other people may feel differently. That's the nature of fashion. All that matters to Apple is that people will buy a blue Watch in sufficient numbers to make it worthwhile. I suspect they wouldn't sell that well, so I suspect Apple won't be selling it.

Nope, quite happy with my S5. The gold stainless steel is gorgeous, photo doesn't due it justice since case is actually highly polished.
I never really gave any care to my watch or bands matching with what I wear (I currently have silver. First Apple Watch was the space grey) but I saw a picture somewhere of what the blue watch might look like, and my first thought was “hey that would match my scrubs” 😂 If the blue ends up being similar to the picture I saw...I would seriously consider it! It would be tempting, for sure!
I would think the rumoured blue model would be in the cheaper aluminum so maybe you’re in luck (if you so choose).
