Watch Edition

Apple revealed the pricing for all of their models of the Apple Watch at their press event yesterday and the company announced that the Apple Watch Edition would retail for $10,000.

What Apple did not mention at the event, was this is for the entry level gold Apple Watch Edition smartwatch, the top model will cost a massive $17,000.

There are a total of eight models of the Apple Watch Edition a 38mm 18 karat rose gold model with a sport band will set you back $10,000.

The next model in the range is a 42mm 18 karat rose gold Apple Watch with a white sport band, this model will cost $12,000.

The next models will cost you $15,000 and these comes with Apple’s classic buckle and leather band and the top model retails for $17,000 and also comes with a leather strap, although this one features Apple’s Modern Buckle.

Apple’s pricing for their gold Apple Watch Edition smartwatch came as a surprise to many and Apple have priced these devices to compete with luxury watch brands like Rolex, Panerai, Omega and many more.

There is a major difference between the gold Apple Watch and a luxury gold watch from a maker like Rolex or Panerai, in a few years the technology in the Apple Watch will be out of date and the device will lose most of its value apart from its scrap gold value. Where as a luxury watch will last for years, many last for people’s entire lifetimes.

This wont stop people buying the gold Apple Watch though, as many people will see it as a status symbol, although one that will need to be replaced every few years when the next model is released.

The Apple Watch looks like a great device and Apple will probably send up selling millions, we wonder how many of those will be the gold model at $17,000 a go. Leave a comment and let us know what you think about Apple’s $17,000 smartwatch.
