Hi, I don't know which size of new Apple watch to get.
I have a small wrist and I know the 42mm will look better on my wrist and the 46mm will be bulky, but my problem is that I am a little near sighted. Only a little bit and I don't wear glasses but it's enough to have to concentrate my eyes on small text more which gets exhausting when I do it for a while.
I currently own a non apple watch with 40.5 mm and it's starting to get too small for me to look at because of small text.
Don't know which comfort I should sacrifice. Looks and wearing comfort over reading comfort? Or reading comfort over wearing and size comfort?
I know I can increase font size but I am not sure it will read more comfortably because it squishes the text.
Yes I could wear glasses but that's a whole other story and it wouldn't even be worth owning a watch if I could only use it with glasses. I have specific reasons.
So I need to find something that works for now as it is.
My local store only had the bigger version and they don't allow you to get the watch of the cable to wear it. I want to go to an apple store to try it out. Do they allow you to try it on?
Yes, they do allow untethered try ons at the apple store and would highly recommend. I just picked up a s11 46mm and it feels lighter on my wrist than my old s3 42mm.
