However, the Apple watch series 7 watch band can be also compatible with the old version, like Apple watch series 6 and others.
Starting at $399, Apple’s latest smartwatch, the Apple Watch Series 7, has a larger always-on Retina display, a more rounded form with a larger shell, greater durability, and faster charging.
