Tudor you can try Sincere Watches or Watches of Switzerland, The last time I bought from an AD is a Tag Heuer Aquaracer and that more than a decade back.
Ya put name at wos. Nothing til now. For grey I’m paranoid about fake stuff. China can fake any watch. At least for AW the whole country can’t even make the same chip with billions of investment haha.

I have same problem. I stick to my trusted Garmin for runs because my Apple Watch 6, I don't have physical button to stop the watch.

Once I was completing my first half marathon, quite a milestone for an apek like me and when I tried to stop the run on my AW6, the screen is not responsive to my wet fingers and I can stop the run. I need to also swipe the screen to press stop and the screen cannot swipe/slide. Luckily I wore 2 watches together my Garmin.

With the Ultra, we can stop the run by pressing both the Action button and side button simultaneously ?

Another gripe that I had with the AW6 is that it doesn't have a metric to monitor my max HR. Can the Ultra do this now ?

To solve this, I bought the Walkoutdoor app and installed. But not sure if we can configure the Action button to stop the run in the walkoutdoor app ?

Thanks
For all existing Apple Watch I think you can pause/ resume workout by pressing the crown and side button at the same time. No need action button for that.

Beware that awu has longer watch body so your measurement need to take into account that as well. E.g. you measure for size X with 45mm watch reference but when you put it on a 49mm watch you have 4mm extra of circumference. TLDR a fit loop on 45mm watch will feel loose on 49mm watch.

ya .. thats what i noticed.. cos mine exsting strap is fixed on the 42mm series 3... probably for the nylon strap loop / trail loop fit into the 49mm (7mm more) have to get a shorter strap if not will be protruding at the end.. may get the s/m size liao.. anyway thanks for mentioning this to confirm my thoughts lol

yea i realised when on the old series 7 45mm, using the sport band, i am on the 3hole from the last.. now using the same band on the ultra, i am using the 4th hole. that explains it.. theres extra 4mm.

Haha yes I've seen knock-offs for Apple Watches and it's pretty hilarious. It's a totally different 'system' altogether. :ROFLMAO:

Anyway I just visited Orchard Apple Store and took a look at their demo trail loop. It's very soft and a little stretchy. Think among the 3 new bands for the Ultra, the trail loop is the most comfortable. Still I find alpine loop is most suitable for my purpose.

The trail loop is still not available to purchase so online order only. The other 2 are available for purchase.
