My husband is a big guy (6ft 3in, and about 280lbs). He had one of the earlier watch models but claimed that he didn't like it because he felt like the screen was still too small. Once Apple came out with the 49mm, he said he was ready to try an Apple watch again and he loves it. I wasn't sure if he would like the band that it came with but I was shocked to find out that he loves that too! So this watch met all of his expectations!
