The watch would go on sale in the United Kingdom on April 24, however, pre-order would be available from April 10 with prices between £299 - £8, 000 for the apple watch sport, apple watch standard and apple watch Edition. The information about the pricing and availability of the watches were made known at Apple's Spring Forward media event in San Francisco, where it also announced that the Apple watch will deliver up to 18 hours of battery life, and can be used to make and receive calls through an iphone. How incredible!

Apple is said to have ordered about 5-6 million units from its suppliers in Asia and it is Apple's first original product since the iPad in 2010, so demand is anticipated to be high.

This is just marvelous!

The watch has a sapphire crystal display and a sidewinder, known as a digital crown, which can be used to zoom in, scroll and navigate the interface.The watch in addition to this also has a built-in accelerometer and heart rate sensor which together with GPS and Wi-Fi from an iPhone are able to track different types of motion and provide a comprehensive picture of the wearer’s all-day activity and workouts. 

All these in a wristwatch and truly you can conclusively say that we are in the era of technological advancement. I am just astonished. Anyway, I can't wait to order for mine! Thumbs up for Apple.
