  • The plucking continues, as we remove the self-emptying speaker, designed to sonically blast out water after your watch takes a dip.

  • After an entirely Series 2-ish experience, we're finally rewarded with something new—a whole new section of RF chips, surely responsible for handling the added LTE functionality.

  • In another new twist, the air vent hole next to the microphone is now populated by what looks like a barometric pressure sensor.

  • Apple touted a new barometric altimeter when it introduced the Series 3 at the Steve Jobs Theater—much to our confusion, since we already found a barometer in last year's model.

  • Time to pull this board!
