Go Surfing... I'll hold it for you, and give it the same value to you were you to take it surfing.
I keep on seeing posts like this and wonder if it's viral marketing. (Please don't take this personally, I assume your post is genuine, but I've seen quite a few in the past few days like yours.)
Most people don't even have a watch, and they certainly don't see 300 dollars as a small purchase. I'm happy for people who have this sort of disposable income, but how out of touch do you have to be to fail to realize how small a portion of the world population would consider a 300 dollar watch affordable or a deal in any way? It's so unlikely that someone is this naive that it really makes me question if it's not part of a sophisticated marketing scheme to change the way people think of watches, and their value as symbols of conspicuous consumption.
Depends on what its resistance is ultimately rated at. With surfing you're not going to go deep underwater like you would on a dive so it wouldn't have to be rated as waterproof.
Comparing this to Swiss and Japanese watches is really stupid. This watch looks like an ipad nano. A good handmade watch complements a men and is a classic/timeless piece of accessory. And the level of fit and finish is a factor 100x higher than the apple watch.
Yep I totally agree. I think we have to see these in person. I get the feeling they are smaller than they look in the photos.
Also though two sizes help a bit there must be differences between the two sizes such as battery life.
What I want to know is does "Sports Addition" mean it's a sports look or is it actually different because it's intended purpose it to be used during sports? If not, will the other versions be durable enough to use for sporting purposes? (distance runner here)
... says a poster who has almost certainly held an Apple Watch and can therefore make an informed statement about the the level of fit and finish based on better information than 3d renders and pictures from the internet.

There's going to be lineups at every Apple Store around the world when this watch becomes available.
Apple Watch First Impressions From Watch Experts, Fashion Sites
I wear a skull watch and have had compliments from people many times over the last several years ( this is my second one ). I never wear it under a shirt cuff. If the watch is nice or cool enough to look at, why hide it?
Although my current watch doesn't work anymore but if the Apple Watch allows me to customize that face, it would be sweet.

How many Swiss and Japanese watches have as many sensors, communication abilities and connectivity as the Apple Watch?
The woman in your picture is very beautiful and that kind of camouflages the "ok but not so great" design of Apple watch.
From what I've read, it seems like there probably won't be much difference as far as durability is concerned between the three lines. The thing that seems to make the sports line "sporty" is that it's noticeably lighter.
You don't, but you could have a watch like device to aid in UI (tracking hand gestures, etc.)
Google Glass is the prototype for the next major revolution in human-computer interaction. If smartphones were the biggest innovation since the world wide web, augmented reality will be an even bigger leap forward. And it is almost here. Glass is very limited, but just touching on what's to come. Life will be augmented...we will have a digital overlay of the "real" world within the decade (hopefully sooner rather than later). My hope was that Apple had a breakthrough when they were talking about a revolutionary "wearable." Instead, it's a moronic watch...just like the other dumb ones from Samsung et al.
I think the fit and finish of the
Watch is one of its strong assets. The bulk and functionality are weaker, and those are the primary areas that people are complaining about. But the sheer attention to the smallest detail is astounding!
That would be my guess,but we'll see.
It's just the way that the watches are listed makes me think the sport is the middle model.
It's always listed like this- apple watch,apple watch sport and apple watch edition . For some reasons I'm thinking because it's listed in that order the stanless is the most inexpensive one.
Although if I had to pick on, I'd go with the stainless based on looks alone. The red and gold I'd buy for my fiancé.
The watch operates without the iPhone. It just wouldn't receive data like texts, emails, etc. My iPhone is always in my pocket or nearby so this shouldn't be a problem for me.
From what I've heard the battery lasts a day right now and Apple is working to improve that through software and hardware optimization in the following months. It is worth noting that it still beats the smart watch competition.

I'm really amazed at how good it looks, given it's only the first iteration. Can't wait for the Apple Watch 2.
