I missed - did they say these news faces were just for Series 6? I can't think of a good reason why they wouldn't also be on Series 5

oh wow, just saw Watch SE and because I am clueless to the AppleWatch pricing thought it would be a lot less than that.
$99-150 I'd say they could be easy gifts, but eek!
$99 LOL

You might be able to find a nice used Fitbit for that much on eBay.

Only gripe is they removed something that was provided within the price and did not provide an equivalent price reduction to support the removal - the USB power adapter. If you are that conscious, make it solar-powered and be done with both batteries and adapter then.

Did they remove the magnetic puck? Or just the usb brick? I thought it didn't come with a brick already.
It doesn’t include the the charging brick, and hasn’t for the sport model for two years now since the Series 3.

So they're exclusive to s6 hardware? I'd be a bit miffed if they didn't kind of suck anyway. I like that one on the s4/s5 with tick marks that go all the way around the edge, it looks the most "like a watch" rather than "like a round dial on a rectangle"
Since it is sounding like this is indeed the case, it’s a dick move, as they generally don’t restrict several faces to the new Watch.
