Can apple watch band 42 fit 40?

It's a little smaller than the watch, but it closes normally. The 42 also fits the 40, there is only a slight overlap of the band. I have the 40mm Apple Watch Series 4, as well as several 42mm straps from the old 42mm Apple Watch Series 1.I've heard that the 42mm straps are supposed to fit the 40mm watch, so I went to try it out. In doing so, I noticed that the strap protrudes from the corners of the watch.

I don't know if this is supposed to happen and it just has to do with the difference in the shapes of the watch, or if it means that the 42mm strap won't fit the 40mm watch. Is it safe for the band to stick out like this? I don't care what it looks like as much as making sure I can use my old bands. Initially, you were wondering if a 42mm strap would work on a 40mm watch. Yes, the 42mm strap will fit and lock properly, but the lugs will stick out on either side of the watch, as the 42mm strap is designed for watches with a wider body.

Apple Watch Series 4, Series 5, and Series 6 come in 40mm and 44mm case sizes, so they're the same. As long as you get the same size for the new Apple Watch, the existing bands should fit seamlessly. If you have an older Apple Watch Series 0, 1, 2 or 3, your straps should be for the 38mm or 42mm case. The Apple Watch Series 7 was one of many announcements made during Apple's “California Streaming” event, sharing the stage alongside the iPhone 13 and 13 Pro, a new iPad Mini with USB-C charging, and more.

This is because when Apple slightly increased the size of the Apple Watch case, they kept the same strap sizes. While Apple Watch has been around for many years, Apple has maintained the same ear design every year. In addition to maintaining the same watch band mounting slots, the smaller 38mm and 40mm displays also have smaller screen sizes. For the 40mm and 41mm Apple Watch models, you can get individual loop bands in the size range of one to nine, while the 44mm and 45mm models work with band sizes four to 12.But many of them no longer include options for the 38, 40, 42 and 44 mm size options for all straps.

Apple Watch Series 6 has an always-on display that's brighter than before, so you don't need to make that awkward wrist movement to see the time. While it may seem at first that Apple has unceremoniously eradicated support for all previous models, don't worry, it didn't. Apple Watches have two screen sizes, 42 mm and 44 mm, but both models have the same mounting slots for the watch straps. However, the company made it a little more confusing to quickly find the accessory made for your watch size.
