The Apple Gold Edition watch was announced as the most expensive Apple product ever released, however, we're sure, the price won't hold back any die-hard fans of the brand. In the words of Tim Cook, the CEO of Apple, this is "the most beautiful model from the collection".
The starting price of the gold timepiece is $10 000, but increases with each additional feature. At its most expensive, valued at $17 000, the Apple watch flaunts a 18k yellow or pink gold-plated body, a sapphire display and an elegant clasp. Each watch comes with a magnetic battery charger however, the luxury version of the Apple Watch also comes with a specially crafted case made from 18k pink or yellow gold, as well as a designer band.
The appearance of the watch is not its only redeeming factor. It has all the functions of an Apple smartphone by allowing its users to log in to their social media, read news and check on the weather. Using it, one can take phone calls and read messages and even monitor vitals.
It is expected that all models of the Apple Watch will be made available for purchase on April 24th in Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States. Starting from April 10th, after an easy sign up procedure, customers will be able to test the watch at participating Apple store locations before it is officially released on the Apple Online Store.
