Live Coverage of Apple's March 2015 'Spring Forward' Event

[iwayne]

Apple done lost their mind. Hmm a stainless steel Rolex that will last my lifetime or a gold computer that will be obsolete in years.

 

[LordQ]

Will people really go for an Apple Watch Edition over an Omega Seamaster?

 

[Andy0568]

April 24th?! Boooooo

 

[apolloa]

pfffftttt hahahahah 10 grand! Well what ever Apple. So no updates on the internals..

Meh whatever, the sport looks cool.

 

[AppleScruff1]

Do they really think they'll sell many of the editions at $10,000?

I'm curious what the markup is over the value of the gold.

Starting at 10K. I wonder what the top dog costs?

 

[biscuitsxluv]

Another video? HAHAHA

 

[alvindarkness]

10k ha ha ha ! There was silence.....

And notice how quickly and quietly he said it too. I had to squint my ears to pick it up.

 

[SilianRail]

So a $10K watch that will be technologically obsolete and have a depleted lithium ion battery in 2 years and will be thrown in the garbage?

 

[theSeb]

lol @ $9999

That's more than a bottom of the range Patek Philipe. I'll take the Patek.

 

[xgman]

waste of money imho.

 

[ZacNicholson]

so the best thing about this event was the macbook xD

and that wasnt even that impressive

 

[frifra]

Apple Watch Battery Time? No words on that so far.
Available on 24/04/2015.
Preorders 10/04/2015.

 

[iBug2]

$10K starting price for gold watch, Zero reaction from audience.

What do you expect people to do? Cheer and clap for a 10K price tag? It's a niche fashion item, I think the reaction was as anyone would expect.

So a $10K watch that will be technologically obsolete and have a depleted lithium ion battery in 2 years and will be thrown in the garbage?

likely in 1 yr.

 

[OSXMavericks]

I would rather sell my soul than get an Apple watch.

 

[cmanderson]

$10,000 for the Edition.

Wow.

All praise Gruber.

It makes sense for them to attempt the premium price on a limited run product, so that people of influence (and money) buy them and feel like they own something exclusive.

 

[thadoggfather]

why is 8.2 coming out now with the watch not even available until preorder until april 10th?

To get that cash cow incentive going?

Hopefully 8.2 is an improvement otherwise.

geez

 

[jbachandouris]

10k ha ha ha ! There was silence.....

I noticed that to. Comical.

 

[budselectjr]

Makes sense it will be a limited run at only available at high ends locations.

 

[abshole765]

Calling it now, Gold watch will be over $3,000

And I was right, but way off.

 

[zhenya]

Apple Watch Battery Time? No words on that so far.

18 hours.

 

[Chad-VI]

1100$ for a Stainless steel version

 

[Smartass]

10k? that must be a joke...

 

[AppleInTheMud]

New MacBook looks good.

Watch still ugly and years behind Samsungs Watches... And the pricing is a joke :-O

 

[biscuitsxluv]

You guys are funny. There are people who will buy the gold watch. It's part of business, if you are confident in what you're selling, it will sell.
