Design

Pioneering
engineering.

Looks tough.
Because it is.

To build the ultimate sports watch, we crafted every element with painstaking attention to detail for unparalleled performance. Titanium strikes the perfect balance between weight, ruggedness, and corrosion resistance. The new case design rises up to surround the flat sapphire crystal and protect it from edge impacts. The Digital Crown is larger and the side button is raised from the case, making them easier to use while you’re wearing gloves.

The biggest and brightest Apple Watch display ever.

Direct sunlight is no obstacle for an Always‑On Retina display that’s an eye-opening 2000 nits at its peak and twice as bright as any other Apple Watch. And the bigger display provides more room for workout metrics and detail‑packed watch faces.

Wayfinder watch face with Night Mode.

Specifically for Apple Watch Ultra, the Wayfinder face features a time dial that can be switched to a live compass and has room for eight complications. In low light situations, you can rotate the Digital Crown to activate Night Mode and see the watch face turn a vivid red.

Ready for Action.

The new Action button gives you quick, physical control over a variety of functions. It’s customizable and can do things like control a workout, mark a Compass Waypoint, or begin a dive. Just like you, it’s full of potential.

Everything in its place.

An essential and versatile tool that fits on your wrist, Apple Watch Ultra packs incredible capability into a surprisingly small space.

Hike, run, dive. There’s a band for that.

Making the ultimate sports watch for athletes of all kinds required a unique approach. That’s why specialized bands for outdoor adventures, endurance training, and water sports are as meticulously crafted as the watch itself.

Alpine Loop

Ocean Band

Endurance

Push farther.
Run wilder.

Whether it’s your first run in a while, a 10K, or an ultramarathon, it takes a special kind of person to seek out challenges that test you physically. Apple Watch Ultra is the training partner to help you push your limits.

Find strength in numbers.

Making progress as an athlete requires accurate data and insights. Updates to the Workout app like new metrics and views give you all the information you need to be and beat your best. The larger display lets you see up to six metrics at once.

Heart Rate Zones.

Quickly see your intensity level. Training zones are automatically calculated and personalized using your health data, or you can create them manually.

GPS that’s truly trailblazing.

GPS performance is critical for athletes who want the most precise metrics, whether they’re training in urban streets or out in the wild. Apple Watch Ultra features a new precision dual-frequency GPS system that provides amazing accuracy in the most difficult locations.

The GPS dilemma.

For most people, a traditional GPS solution with just L1 GPS works well most of the time. But it can be tricky when tall buildings, trees, or dense foliage block satellites. The newer L5 GPS enables advanced signal processing, reducing many errors and providing a more consistent signal in environments like dense cities.

Precision dual‑frequency GPS

L1 and L5 GPS for incredible accuracy and precise metrics

Two frequencies. One precise solution.

Apple Watch Ultra integrates both L1 and L5 GPS into a new antenna design for greater range with incredible power efficiency. It combines data from these two frequencies to provide amazingly accurate distance, pace, and route calculations.

The most accurate GPS in dense urban environments.

The dual-frequency system combines with Apple Maps to include road, bike, and trail routes that better identify actual locations. Accuracy is boosted by new satellite and signal models. And a custom, advanced algorithm makes optimal use of available satellite signals.

Trail Loop. Comfort for the long run.

Designed to be light, thin, and flexible. It features a fuss-free loop closure for quick adjustments during workouts. Extra stretch built into the webbing makes it easy to cinch for optimal fit.

Adventure

Above. Beyond.
And back again.

Designed to take on extreme environments, elevations, and temperatures, Apple Watch Ultra is an essential exploration tool that can take you everywhere. And help get you home.

The compass reimagined.

An accurate compass is as crucial for navigating the wild as a solid pair of boots. The redesigned Compass app delivers all‑new views and functionality that take wrist‑driven orienteering to new heights.

More information with every turn.

Start with a classic compass dial along with a constantly updating digital view of your bearing and direction. Zoom in by turning the Digital Crown and you’ll see more on the giant display: elevation, incline, longitude, and latitude.

Compass Waypoints mark the spot.

Quickly and easily mark your location with Compass Waypoints. Tap the icon to drop a waypoint on a trailhead, campsite, or point of interest. Name your waypoints, give them icons, and color‑code them to stay organized.

Backtrack. Retrace your steps.

To help you return to where you came from, or simply get back on route, Backtrack uses GPS data to automatically create a path of where you’ve been — even if you’re off the grid. So you can easily get to a previous location or all the way back down the mountain.

Action button. Make your mark. Find your way.

A single press of the Action button can quickly drop a Compass Waypoint at your location or immediately start Backtrack, so you can focus on the journey ahead or behind you.

86-decibel Siren. Sonic salvation.

If you get lost or injured and need to attract attention, hold the Action button to activate a Siren that can be heard up to 600 feet or 180 meters away.

Coming soon

Up to 60 hoursOn low power settings for days full of adventure.

Ocean

Ground­breaking,
even in the sea.

Built to withstand jetskiing in Maunalua Bay or kitesurfing the Gorge. Apple Watch Ultra features a new depth gauge. It also delivers the data and functionality required by scuba and free divers for descents down to 40 meters.

EN13319 certified

An internationally recognized standard for diving accessories.

Coming soon

A full-featured dive computer.

Designed in partnership with renowned underwater innovators Huish Outdoors, the Oceanic+ app for Apple Watch Ultra puts a bona fide dive computer on your wrist.8 Made for recreational scuba diving and free diving down to 40 meters, with all the core features divers need. It’s also refreshingly easy to use.

A dive planner with local knowledge.

The Oceanic+ app on iPhone goes beyond calculating just depth and time by integrating local conditions like tides, water temperatures, and even community‑fed info like visibility and currents. Or simply use your watch to quickly and easily plan your dive.

Metrics that make more sense.

Most dive computers require a complex sequence of button pushing to get what you need. Oceanic+ lets you access additional screens simply by turning the Digital Crown. It uses color‑coding on the big, bright display to make complex information easy to understand.

Safety never stops.

All the safety warnings you expect from a dive computer are incorporated into Oceanic+, from decompression limits to excessive ascent rates and safety stops. The app runs a Bühlmann decompression algorithm to constantly calculate and monitor dive parameters, giving you the data you need at a glance.

Post-dive data. From sea to cloud.

Get the data from your dive immediately after you surface, including your GPS entry and exit points. It syncs automatically to your iPhone and the cloud. See a summary of your dive profile and check out your logbook to search through past dives or share your experiences with friends and family.

Innovation taken to new depths.

Using a new depth gauge, the Depth app is ideal for snorkeling or any casual underwater activity. See the time, current depth, water temperature, duration under water, and maximum depth you’ve reached. It can even activate automatically when you submerge.

Action button. Ready, set, dive.

Make controlling your watch easier in the water by programming the Action button to start the Depth app or set a compass heading during a dive with Oceanic+.

Ocean Band. The sea is calling.

Molded from fluoroelastomer rubber, it’s lightweight and flexible. It has a titanium buckle and a spring‑loaded titanium adjustable loop that secures through the tubes for a hypersecure fit, even during high‑speed water sports. An attachable band extension lets you wear it over a thick wet suit.
