With the new accessories, even if you look like Popeye, you can still wear an Apple Watch.

Apple won’t ship its timepiece with the new L/XL band, which means you will have to swap the original band that comes with your watch, or shell out the cash to buy the new size.
For users with wrists big enough not to be able to fit in the Apple Watch, Apple has launched a Link Bracelet kit and two new variants of the Sport band. Don’t worry, no tools are required to add or remove links.
Naturally, it’ll come at a cost with Apple charging £39/$49 for the privilege. Apple also offers a number of other additional bands for the watch. That makes it the only band that can be expanded in this way, and with six additional links, it’ll be the band best suited for wrists larger than 215mm, which is where the Classic Buckle maxes out. The previous Sport band just stretched out to 210mm. They are created from the same stainless steel combination as the case and the Link Bracelet. Also, on account of a basic release button, you can include and uproot them without any specific tools. Shipping takes about 5-7 business days, or you can also opt to pick the kit up in a nearby Apple Store.
Apple’s Link Bracelet Kit is priced at $49 and available for purchase immediately through the company’s online site. In addition, Apple has finally received inventory of the Black Modern Buckle in medium for the 38mm stainless steel Apple Watch.
The price for these bands is also deceptive.
