If there is a redesign, would you like a round or square shape?

I think round watches look better, but square smartwatches have a better UI and usability and are more distinctive. So I would say it's a toss for me

Round watches only work for the watch face. You soon realise why the Apple Watch is square as soon as you do anything else on a circular smartwatch and everything you view is cut off at the top and bottom.

Square. I had a Samsung Galaxy Watch some number(?) and for me it just seemed too old-timey. Being able to cram in as much information as my old eyes can read in an alway-on-display is valuable.

Definitely square it is.

Do you really mean square or do you mean rectangular? I would vote rectangular over either square or circular.

The current AW design is to toy like.. I would like to see options that look like real watches. Square is OK, but I prefer round.

Here is an idea for a cool Apple Watch face that works better with a round case, but could work with rectangular too: create a 3D representation of an analog mechanical skeleton watch where you can see all of the springs and gears moving and animate it on the OLED screen.
