Seriously, like i must see 20-30 AW per day minimum. I’ve never even encountered one ultra, ever. What do you think the percentages actually are? Why are the percentages so high here? Just surrounded here by AW aficionados or something? It’s begun to feel surreal.

It’s too bulky, I’ve put one on, and it looked awful on the wrist. I don’t think I would buy it if I did some outdoorsy stuff, regular aw is fine for that as well, if you worried it gets scratched get a case for the one day a year when you feel outdoorsy. I think I have to gain like 50lbs for it too look decent on my wrist.
I mountain bike and I see a lot of them among mountain bikers.
But not on roadies. Think of the added weight!
It’s titanium so it’s still lightweight. The real issue is the aero drag it causes.
I ride mtb and road and got one primarily to save weight. Don’t have to carry my phone anymore with LTE on the watch. Half joking on the weight, but I’ve also broken a few phones mtbing so that’s another benefit.
I’m a roadie and I like to keep my jersey pockets free. Easier to get a jacket or something out while riding if you don’t have a phone in there as well.
Same I like no longer carrying my phone
Same reason that everyone got a M3 in a BMW sub, or everyone on a gaming sub got an RTX 4090.
It‘s usually not the average person that has huge interest in the topic. The average joe just got his watch and doesn’t care to read anything about other people’s experience.
They are very expensive? That being said if you work in tech you see them daily
Probably just a matter of chance. AWU makes up a small percentage of AWs in the wild, and you only see a small percentage of all possible AWs in your area because you likely aren’t walking around staring at everyones wrists or they’re covered by a sleeve.
So now you have to happen to see the small percentage of the small percentage of watches you see every day to find an AWU. Chances are you’ve been near someone wearing one, you just didn’t notice.
I see them all the time, even on people who don’t look like they’d spring for the Ultra. Kids, small woman, really skinny guys. I see them all over
The Ultra users are all at their country club laughing at those wearing a normal AW.
They’re common with the techies where I work. Big, obvious, maybe a sort of style thing.
They are more expensive, and frankly it doesn’t do much that the regular one doesn’t do.
My dad’s specialist doctor has one, and a guy we met at a car dealer had one.
I see them a lot. Dads at the playground, fellow triathletes at races. A bunch at the last running race I did - a 10 miler.
Because we’re all up Everest
Zero in my field of construction at my current job site with 200+ ppl lol
I would say, I see one out of every 10. Apple watches is an ultra where I’m at.
I’m a teacher and a lot of people have them. They’re amazing for teaching high schoolers
They are all ugly over priced junk who cares 😁
