Beyonce Yellow Gold Custom Apple Watch


...Apple Watch Hotness...

Beyonce
Yellow Gold Custom Apple Watch

Apple is doing an amazing strategic marketing job with the rollout of the Apple watch by having it show up first on many famous celebrities wrists. In the photo below we see a custom yellow gold Apple Watch with a matching yellow gold bracelet on legendary beautiful recording artist, Beyonce.



I believe it is inevitable this all gold Apple Watch model will come to market in the future, probably at a price point around the cost of a yellow gold Rolex. 



In the photo below we also see Karl Lagerfeld's Apple Watch, which is also a custom yellow gold model like Beyonce.

J.J. Abrams Director Of Star Wars


...Apple Watch Super Coolness...

J.J. Abrams
Director Of Star Wars
WATCH SPORT

The list of celebrities that are rockin' Apple Watches is very impressive, and it is awesome to see J.J. Abrams wearing one. J.J. Abrams is the hottest movie director working today, and will likely go down in history as being one of the absolute greatest directors.


The photo above of J.J. Abrams was taken today at the Star Wars Celebration Festival in Anaheim California, where he showcased for the all-new Star Wars: The Force Awakens Official Teaser #2 Trailer, which can be viewed below.


The Star Wars Event was amazing, and it included all the primary original cast member as seen below, including Peter Mayew (Chewbacca The Wookie), Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker), Carrie Fisher (Princess Liea) and Anthony Daniels (C3P0). Only Harrison Ford (Hans Solo) was missing, since he is still recovering from his airplane accident.



J.J. Abrams is pictured again below at the end of the event, after he took off his ballcap, and as we see he is wearing what appears to be a custom-made blue Apple Watch Sport Strap, which matches the R2D2 model in front of him (seen in the second photo below).


I must say I believe we are living in the most amazing of times, and to see the already super-iconic Apple Watch next to the super-iconic R2D2, is just amazing and heartwarming at the same time. It also give me a deja vu feeling to see the Apple Watch next to R2D2, and if you think about it, the Apple Watch really is kind of like having your own real life R2D2!!!!


Star Wars has special meaning for me, since I saw it in the movie theaters when I was 10 years old. Along with Raiders Of The Lost Ark, it remains one of my favorite movies of all time, so after all these decades to see the original case return, is a dream come true!!!!!!

You can watch the J.J. Abrams interview in the video below, which I very highly recommend watching!!!!!

The Apple Watch First Impressions


The Apple Watch
Hands On First Impressions

This weekend I had the chance to try out the Apple watch in person, and I was completely stunned!!! I mean I was absolutely blown-away!!! If I had to sum up the Apple Watch in three words, I would say: "Innovation, Innovation, Innovation!!!"



In my opinion, a hundred years from today, people will look back at the history of the wristwatch, and there will be three seminal events that will stand out. 

First would be the development of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual in 1931; second would be the development of the digital quartz watch in the late 1960s, and last but not least, would be the the development of the Apple Watch launched in 2015. 

Before we look at the Apple Watches up close, I want to share how impressed I was with the implementation of the new Apple Watch Display cases in the Apple stores. 



The new Apple Watch display tables by themselves are a work of art. As you see in the photo above, they have all the different models displayed behind glass. These watches are never removed to be shown to customers. Instead, Apple specialists magically swipe what appears to be an NFC device in front of a drawer, which magically opens.



Each Apple Table has six watch drawers, each with one Apple specialist able to access their individually assigned drawer. The gold Apple Watch models (known as WATCH EDITION) are not available in every Apple Store, and you can only see them by appointment is larger Apple stores. Each Apple store that showcases the gold watches shows them in a special room.

Today, Apple launched both the Apple Watches, as well as the New MacBook, and the simultaneous launch of these products was different than any other Apple Launch. When Apple iPhones first go on sale in the Apple Store, the stores get really busy, and often times the customers and employees get overwhelmed. Apple decided with the launch of the Apple Watch and New MacBook, to only show them in the store, with the only way to order them online. If you think about it, this is a brilliant innovation in sales technique.



WATCH SPORT

Let's start with the least expensive Apple watch known as the WATCH SPORT. This model is made out of aluminum, and comes standard with what Apple refers to as Ion-X glass. As I understand Ion-X glass is the same glass they use on iPhone 6 screens. Essentially it is scratch resistant, but not as durable as synthetic sapphire crystal.




The watch above has a DLC coating in a color Apple refers to as Space Gray. The WATCH SPORT model comes on a "Flouroelastomer" band which is offered in five different fashion colors, including black, which is seen on the model in the photo above and below.

This model has almost a Mil-Spec look to it, and as you see in the image below, it has great curves and lines, coupled with a magnificent fit and finish.





Size Comparison

In the image below I compare my 47MM Panerai Marina Militare PAM 587 to the 42MM Apple Watch. My 47MM watch is definitely on the larger size. I think Apple should also consider making a 47MM Apple Watch, but the 42MM is still a very good overall size.





WATCH

Next up we take a look at the WATCH, which is my favorite model. It has a stainless steel body with a sapphire crystal, so it should be very, very durable.



The stainless steel model is offered with several different bracelet options, which each give the watch a completely different look as illustrated in the above image. On the left, we see the Milanese Loop bracelet  and on the right side we see the exact same model, with a "Link Bracelet." In the image below we see the Link Bracelet from the side view. For some reason it reminds me of shark gils or something :-)


The Link Bracelet is a magnificent piece of highly innovative engineering. I was literally stunned with how it worked. As you see in the image below, the bracelet tapers toward the clasp, then the links stay a uniform width. As you can see in the image below, the uniform width links have push-bottons on the back, shaped like Tic-Tacs. If you press on them, they unlink the bracelet, so the end user can easily adjust the bracelet without having to use any kind of tool.


I put together the video below to show the detail of how the Apple Watch Link Bracelet works.


Next, let's take a look at the Milanese Loop bracelet, which gives the Apple Watch a dressier look.


In the photo below of the Milanese Loop bracelet, you see how clean and infinitely modern it looks.


The real beauty of the Apple Watch lies in how modularly easy it is to almost instantly change looks with, and in the photo below we see the navy blue Apple Leather Loop strap.



Last but not least, we see the stainless steel Apple Watch on the black Sport Band. In the future, once I obtain an Apple Watch, I will be publish a more detailed review. As of now, I am extremely excited about the future of the Apple Watch!!!

Apple Watch Shipping In April of 2015!


Apple Watch Shipping In April of 2015!
Tim Cook Announced Today
During Apple Earnings Call

Apple CEO, Tim Cook announced today that the Apple watch will be shipping in April of 2015. He said:

"Development for Apple Watch is right on schedule, and we expect to begin shipping in April. Developers are hard at work on apps, notifications, and information summaries that we call Glances, all designed specifically for the Watch's user interface. The creativity and software innovation going on around Apple Watch is incredibly exciting, and we can't wait for our customers to experience them when Apple Watch becomes available."

Cook went on to say:

"My expectations are very high on it. I'm using it every day, and loving it, and I can't live without it. And so I see that we're making great progress on the development of it. The number of developers that are writing apps for it are impressive and we're seeing some incredible innovation coming out there.

And just to clarify, what we had been saying was early 2015, and we sorta look at the year and think of "early" is the first four months, "mid" is the next four months, and "late" is the final four months. To us, it's sort of within the range, so it's basically when we thought.

But most importantly, we're going to be thrilled to start shipping it, because we've got a lot of customers that are wanting to get one."
