The spring bars are a pain. Many of my extended family don't have the finger dexterity to operate them at all, and either take them to the jewelry counter to replace or bring them to me. The rest can change them, but hate the damn things and take several tries sometimes with the bar flying across the room and complain about it every time.
This isn't change for the sake of change, it is a genuine improvement.

I have one band that I like for exercise, another for work (avoids inflaming carpel tunnel while typing) and a third for the aesthetics when walking around. If the Apple bands were harder to switch I probably just wouldn’t wear a watch while working and exercising.
- ubermonkey 3y agoOn my traditional watches? Almost never, because it's a pain. On my Apple watches? Often! I wear a nicer strap in dressier situations, but always change to one of the rubber straps for exercise or swimming, and I do those things a LOT. The Apple innovation here is pretty slick.
