Will we be upset if Apple Watch X means our existing, extensive watchband collection no longer works? (alien.top)

Per title. We knew it was coming some day, tho perhaps not this soon. Will you be upset if you need ugly adapter to make your extensive + expensive watchband collection work?

i think apple switching to magnetic watch bands is highly unlikely. The current system works flawlessly & the bands are secure and solid yet easily removable. Personally don’t feel a redesign is necessary but if the X really is going to bring an all new design like some people think than i wouldn’t be surprised if they switch the way the bands work as the new design may not support current design
