Dye further shared that the team had mastered designing for small screens. However, now with a bigger display the design team had new opportunities to improve user experiences.

Apple Watch Ultra 2 If you were a little worried about scratching the new black Apple Watch Ultra 2, Anderson reassured users during the interview. “The diamond-like carbon coating is even harder than the surface of natural titanium. If you scratch it on anything apart from maybe diamond, you’re going end up with that object on your watch rather than scratching the coating off,” Anderson explained. How New Watch Face is Designed? Alan Dye also shed light on how the Reflections watch face was created. new Reflections face is modelled on hand-carved guilloche dials, such as those found on many a Breguet and Audemars Piguet’s iconic Royal Oak, and uses the Watch’s inbuilt gyroscope, sensors and updated display to shimmer along with the sunlight on your wrist…“We got obsessed with understanding where the object was in any place or time and how we could actually cast reflections on it that feel like they come from the world around you,” says Dye. Fun Facts from Apple’s Design Team A few more insights about what goes into designing the smartwatch, bits and pieces from the interview include - Many Apple designers still own and wear traditional analogue watches. Dye enjoys spotting the Apple Watch on the red carpet at film premieres. While Apple isn’t typically seen as a dive company, the team worked hard to include diving features in the Ultra and Series 10 models. The design team is constantly challenging themselves, exploring new ideas, and is “not afraid of the new at all.” As we are learning about these thoughtful design innovations and upgrades, Apple continues to refine the Watch experience.
