Hi,
I will buy the new Watch 11 42mm and I was wondering if the strap of a 38mm Watch 3 series will fit on the new Watch 42mm. One person says no and another one says yes.
thank you!

Original Title: 38mm band on 42mm watch?
Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 11
The short answer is: no, a band made for a 38 mm case will not properly fit a 42 mm case, if we assume the new “Series 11 42 mm” follows Apple’s usual sizing rules.
Hello!
Unfortunately your strap of a 38m Watch 3 series will not fit the new Apple Watch Series 11 42mm.
However, I hope you are able to find another strap that meets your liking for the Apple Watch Series 11.
Kind Regards
Will a 38mm band fit my new 42mm Apple Watch Series 11?
