I'm copying my response to mikepizzo:Do you think it appears larger than a wristwatch, for example? I guess if it's lightweight like the new design of the MB's then it wouldn't impact life too much. I thought I saw pucks, or read about it anyway, where they were going to have the time on them, so it would be like wearing a watch. I don't wear watches often, but maybe this was designed to fit more like a watch.
Imo, the risk is probably the same or less as the current design.
I have small wrists..so not only is weight a concern but also having the sides be like a large watch.....which I don't buy because of my wrists. Any watches I've had in the past have been much smaller ones which usually require 2 or 3 links to be removed.
I haven't worn a watch in years but that's just because I've been using my cell phone as my watch.
Basically for my husband this puck would be perfectly fine I'm sure (and he loves to wear watches) as he has larger wrists. But for me it would not. It is hard to say now without having enough diverse people wearing them so I can't say that my concern is necessarily the same as others. It would be interesting to see how children like them, how people who have smaller wrists like them, how people who are used to wearing things that are around the same size feel about them, people who have larger wrists, people who have gotten used to the current design , etc.
I do know that some people have had issues with their current magicbands staying on but my thought was more along the lines of the puck just flying out when on a ride. rteez however advised it has screws, which is interesting to say the least. On the one hand it allows for more security of it staying in on the other it doesn't make it as easy to switch them out.
