Apple to Refresh Apple Watch in March ➝

Mark Gurman, reporting for 9 to 5 Mac:

Apple plans to announce new Apple Watch models in March. The new lineup will be similar to the September 2015 Apple Watch revision, bringing a series of new band color options to the Apple Watch lineup. We are also told that entirely new bands made out of new materials are in development in addition to partnerships with firms beyond Hermes. […]

With new Apple Watch bands and software features in the pipeline along with the new iPhone model and iOS 9.3, sources say that Apple is still tentatively planning a small media event in March. Apple’s current plans call for an event-based introduction during the week of March 14th, but this could be reliant upon another product becoming ready for introduction in the spring, such as the in-the-works iPad Air 3.

I still plan on buying a leather loop for my Watch, but those new band materials sound intriguing. I might wait until the March even before I make any final purchasing decisions.
