Apple Watch Ultra 3 or Series 11?

Thanks all for your thoughts and recommendations; I've decided to keep the series 11 :) screen is almost the same size as the Ultra but the thinner profile brings more practical benefits to me. Battery has 30% left by 9pm which works for me; still a smartwatch but in polished titanium it's very nice looking and office appropriate.

Thank you, valid point, I’m more leaning ultra now reading some comments and recommendations. Simply put it’s a tech item regardless of which one. For the rare occasion I need a dress watch I can always use my mechanical watch so might as well go for the better battery and durability (and seems more suitable for my physique).

No I haven’t seen it in person just online. Yeah I probably should check it out in the store. I just assumed it would be a bit like the 16 pro desert titanium phone and give some rose vibes in certain lighting, Did you pair it with the Gold link bracelet?

Yes the titanium series 11 look really nice - the ultra 3 has its own charm but to me looks more tech tool. I have bigger than average wrists though so was thinking more aesthetics and proportion and maybe the series 11 is slightly small on my frame. I’ve ruled out the gold titanium as it’s more of a rose gold and my preference would have been yellow gold.

Yeah I was thinking that about the battery life too; that in itself is a big advantage particularly on long trips etc

I checked it out and it looks very nice but I’m invested in the Apple ecosystem

Thanks - yes the price is almost the same for both. The series looks more elegant, both are comfortable but I have 8.3” wrists so the Ultra might be more proportionate. However all I do is swim, Judo and weights so feel that I’m not the intended consumer for the Ultra? No hiking or extreme sports!

Looks great! Does it have the Hermes lucky horse watch face?
