Second Apple Watch Ultra due this fall on Apple's product roadmap

Apple's product release roadmap includes three Apple Watch launches for the fall, a report claims, including two Apple Watch Series 9 models and a second-generation Apple Watch Ultra.
Following the introduction of the Apple Vision Pro at WWDC, the attention of the rumor mill turns to the rest of Apple's product catalog. Among the expected inbound devices are a trio of Apple Watch models, which should arrive as part of Apple's usual fall lineup.
In Sunday's "Power On" newsletter for Bloomberg, Mark Gurman outlines the product roadmap for the second half of 2023 and the first half of 2024. At the top of the list, alongside the iPhone 15 lineup, Gurman offers there will be three Apple Watch models introduced in the fall.
The watches are codenamed N207, N208, and N210, with two being part of Apple Watch Series 9, while the third is an "updated version of the Ultra." Gurman doesn't offer further details about what to expect from the models.
Other products listed on the roadmap include an M3-equipped 13-inch MacBook Pro, M3 Pro and M3 Max versions of the 14-inch MacBook Pro and 16-inch MacBook Pro, and New MacBook Air models. A couple of iMacs are also anticipated with 24-inch displays, though "early work" on a version with a screen over 30 inches in size is also apparently happening.

I may upgrade my Ultra if this new one has the Satellite SOS feature.z
Wow, Apple Silicon is on a roll. M3 chips for the masses, no device is left behind it seems.
I don't see any M3-powered hair-dryers yet but it's only a matter of time I guess.
With all due respect, Apple could release the 6th version of the ultra. It makes no difference that globally, people are convincing themselves that a single days (2 even) battery is something they’re cool with. It’s insane. We’re a slave to it, as it dies daily. It’s why I got off the Apple Watch bandwagon a few years back. I’m not going to talk about what I switched to as it detracts from my main point but I sincerely hope folks understand how bad the situation is.
