This is simply stupid. Just a piece of bling for the rich.

 

I'm simply gonna assume most buyers will go for the cheap aluminum.

 

Even $500 for the steel is too much.

Dat marketing move...

 

Sure, launch it on Feb 14... (I knew Valentine's was a corporate conspiracy! hahahaha!!)

 

Edit: Holy ****! Does that look bad... Why use a synthetic band for a gold watch... At least make the band made of gold-plated steel...

With $5,000 I'd rather get a watch from Rolex or Burbery. 

Apple should hurry up and understand that their products aren't very fashionable.

I mean look at this beauty:

Does it bend time and space? Because for $5000 it better bend time and space.

A Buggati Veyron Super Sport is like $2m+, but you don't see anyone else complaining about it. It's like you said, a piece of bling for the rich.

How to Apple:

Step 1: Make mediocre smartwatch

Step 2: Tell people that it's revolutionary

Step 3: ????

Step 4: PROFIT

H&M's quality is shit.

Ugly and useless.

 

I prefer Tory Burch and Dior over Michael Kors.

MK is for peasants.

Abercrombie and Hollister is life though.

MK isn't for peasants, but the Abercrombie and Hollister life is understandable. I wear their shit 24/7.

Solid gold watches cost way more than that, and don't have all the tech inside, it's not really that much if you look at it like a piece of fashion from Sax
