Apple will probably not only present the new iPhone 14 models today, but also the new generation of its watch. It could also include a large and very expensive Pro model.

The normal Watch 8 will probably differ little from its predecessor on the outside.

According to Gurmann, Apple wants to appeal to extreme athletes with the Pro version. However, if it does come, you’re sure to see it on the wrists of users who see it as a status symbol. The new top model does not necessarily have to be called “Pro”, according to Gurman it could also be called “Extreme” or “Explorer Edition”.

In addition to the new Pro version, there should also be a new, cheaper SE model of the Apple Watch. It will probably be based on an older generation again and will be equipped with an older chip, among other things.
