To determine the size of your Apple Watch, you first need to identify its model or series. Apple Watches come in different sizes depending on the series.
How to Identify Your Apple Watch Model or Series
You can typically find the model and size information for your Apple Watch in a couple of places:
- On the back of the watch: Turn over your Apple Watch. Small text is often engraved on the back, which includes the model number and size (e.g., 44mm).
- In the Apple Watch app on your iPhone:
- Open the Apple Watch app on your paired iPhone.
- Tap the My Watch tab.
- Go to General > About.
- Look for the Model Name or Model Number. Tapping the Model Number might show a shorter A-number; tap it again to see the full model number, which can help determine the series. The size is usually listed here as well.
Once you know your Apple Watch Series, you can find its corresponding size.
Apple Watch Sizes by Series
According to the provided reference, here are the common sizes for specific Apple Watch Series:
| Series | Smaller Size | Larger Size |
|---|---|---|
| Series 1 | 38mm | 42mm |
| Series 2 | 38mm | 42mm |
| Series 3 | 38mm | 42mm |
| Series 4 | 40mm | 44mm |
Note: The reference provides information up to Series 4. Later models have introduced new size options.
Understanding the Sizes
Apple offers two primary case sizes for each series, often referred to as the "smaller" and "larger" options. These measurements (e.g., 38mm, 42mm, 40mm, 44mm) refer to the height of the watch case. When you purchase a watch band, you will need to select a band compatible with your specific case size.
By identifying your watch's series using the steps above, you can then determine its size based on the table provided.
