As I can see from the comparison, the GW2 seems to fit better on the wrist (smaller gap) compared to the GW1, can anyone confirm this?

Let's see what the Experts have to say...

What is the real upgrade that the Watch Ultra 2 brings to everyday use?

1. New processor. In all the videos I have seen, there is no difference in speed in practice!

2. Battery and based on the official data, despite the increase, the hours of use (60hrs) are the same as the first Watch (2024).

3. Sensors. The main sensor is exactly the same (Bioactive) so the measurements are the same.

4. Durability. It was upgraded to IP69 with diving capability!

5. Weight. The same in the body, a difference in the weight of the strap (slightly lighter for the Watch 2).

6. Dimensions. 12% smaller than the Watch Ultra 2.

7.Screen size: slightly larger on Watch 2 (1.50" vs 1.52")

8.Brightness +2000nits for Watch 2 when used in outdoor conditions!

Are these upgrades really worth the double price (at this point in time)? Does it make a difference in real-world use?

To those who mention extra big discounts and coupons etc., I would like to remind them that for many countries, e.g. Europe, they do not apply! And if they do, in some they are very small! For example, in Greece, 105€ discount with trade in for the Watch Ultra 2025 😝
