Wow!! could this really be the Apple watch

[Bradsmith]

Watching the movie Steve jobs The Man In The Machine. Started to notice on Steve Jobs was wearing a Watch that look just like the AppleWatch.

It's the only possible conclusion...

Just looks like a digital watch from that time period....

 

[CobraPA]

Hahaha... Looks like it was filmed 'in that period', but obviously was not... so who knows.

LED or LCD Watch of that era

I wish the AW would look like that.

Gaudy chrome band? No thanks.

I particularly enjoyed the massive pictures of the Apple Watch in the OP. Like no-one knows what it looks like.

just looks like maybe a casio to me

You do have to wonder if there was some direct inspiration there. The Apple also vaguely reminds me of the Pulsar digital watch my dad had in the 1970's (that was another watch that sported a dark blank display until you wanted to see the time).

I love it when OP start-date is a day of the week. Joking aside, welcome, nice find. It really does look a lot like the Apple Watch lol.

 

[Oohara]

The watch that Jobs wore is a Seiko D03. Of course in some way or other it has to be at least part of the inspiration for the AW.

Whatever the current state of the AW design, I think this can't be ignored as a highlight among the digital watch designs of the time...

Ultimately, much of the Apple Watch DNA comes from Marc Newson's Ikepod designs.

Wow those bands are identical, especially the sport band.

Unsurprising when it was the same designer that created them both.
