Honestly they shouldn't release the ring together with the new watch since their function highly overlaps each other, and prior watch owners would likely purchase the ring over the watch it both are released further. But now that they decided to release the watch over the ring in certain markets, one would expect people that bought the new watch this round would find it much much less likely to adopt the ring in the coming months.
They should release the ring first, then the watch. This way the early adopters of the ring that doesn't like it, will then get the new watch a few months down the road instead.
