He says not to expect any radical redesigns when it comes to the screen or thickness of the watches. One watch would be an incremental upgrade to the current model and would feature a more powerful processor and better water resistance. The second model will be called the Apple watch two and will include the same features as the other watch and they also include GPS for better location tracking, a larger battery and a barometer. Barometer are used to determine the air pressure.
