Tom Ford unveiled his Spring 2016 collection this week in London, and while the fashion designer’s newest fanciful dinner jackets drew in a flock of celebrity, the Apple Watch made a surprise appearance in the ready-to-wear collection.
Rather than designing a fashionable Apple Watch band, the forward-thinking designer bridged Apple’s timekeeping accessory to the past by turning it into a pocket watch attached to a chain.
Here’s another look at it:
Traditional watch manufacturers are struggling to find a solution to take on Apple Watch, but Original Grain has taken the ‘if you can’t beat em, join em’ cliche a bit too literal with its newest watch collection.
The company launched a new Kickstarter today for its new traditional watch, The Barrel, that comes with a very non-traditional feature called The Duo Connection clasp that lets you wear you Apple Watch on the same wrist.
The razor-blade business model refers to a business in which a company sells a product for a modest price, and then profits from sales of accessories.
According to a new report, the Apple Watch represents a high-tech spin on this concept — since a large number of customers are not only spending hundreds (or even thousands) of dollars on the wearable device itself, but also shelling out for a spare band — thereby letting Apple dip into their wallets for a second time.
We’ve heard amazing stats like the fact that the Apple Watch outsold every Android Wear device ever within its first 24 hours, but just what exactly does Apple’s entry mean for the wearables market as a whole?
According to new research, the Apple Watch is likely to push global shipments of wearable devices to 45-50 million units in 2015 alone — representing a massive 125-150 percent increase from the 20 million units total shipped one year earlier.
We’ve heard a lot of opinions about the Apple Watch since it came out in April. Some people love it, while others don’t see the point of wearing a device that offers no more functionality than your iPhone.
But that’s just humans. What do animals think?
Mashable posted a short video that puts the new wearable next to a series of adorable animals to see how they react, and you can check out all of the verdicts below.
Elle fashion magazine thinks you should totally buy an Apple Watch.
While some early tech reviewers have recently panned the device two months after launch, Elle magazine’s Lauren Sherman says after telling people for weeks that they should probably wait for version two, she’s changed her mind. She’s fallen in love with it. And yes, you should buy an Apple Watch too, but probably not for the reasons you’re thinking.

If you’ve dreamed of being able to drop into your local brick-and-mortar Apple Store to pick up your very own Apple Watch, today is your lucky day!
That’s because a new option available on the online Apple Store now asks customers if they are “Interested in buying in-store?” and then offers them a link letting them check reservation ability, before they head to their nearest Apple Store for a try-on appointment.
Based on the number of times both terms were searched for on Google over the past three months, customers are less interested in the Apple Watch than they are in Apple’s virtually-abandoned relic, the iPod.
That’s according to Google Trends data published by Pacific Crest analyst Andy Hargreaves, whose latest note to clients has few kind words to say about Apple’s debut wearable device.
Still waiting for your Apple Watch pre-order to arrive? It might be time to just cancel your order and head down to the local Apple Store.
Apple Stores have allegedly started receiving their first initial shipments of Apple Watch units for sale through in-store reservations and personal pickup when purchased online, claims a new report.
Apple Watch stand makers are responding to watchOS 2’s Nightstand mode feature, which will turn your wearable into a makeshift alarm clock and display the time in landscape mode when it’s charging on its side. New Apple Watch docks are starting to appear to accommodate this feature ahead of the software update coming this fall.
Some were outraged about the $10,000 cost of the Apple Watch Edition, but will people really race to see one of the glittery timepieces get obliterated by powerful neodymium magnets?
Oddball YouTube stress-tester TechRax clearly hopes so, because he recently plonked down the money to carry out just such an “experiment” in his quest for views. Check out the resulting video below.
Seriously, how does this guy get his money?
After spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars on your new Apple Watch, it’s hard to justify tossing the device on the table to charge like discarded jewelry. If you’ve got a 3-D printer, it’s easy to class things up by printing out an Apple Watch stand.
These 3-D-printed Apple Watch stands will protect your high-tech timepiece from scratches and, more importantly, provide a platform to show off your new smartwatch to friends and family — even when you aren’t using it.
A variety of 3-D printing files are available to download completely free of charge, and they get the job done just fine. Take a look at some of the best designs out there — all of which cost nothing to download.
The Apple Watch’s heart-rate monitor is pretty damned cool, but it’s the one piece of the new smartwatch that’s seeing the most updates and tweaks since the hardware launched seven weeks ago.
A new patent suggests that Apple has even more changes in store for the health tech.
The Apple Watch just launched seven weeks ago, but people are already speculating what the next generation of wearables is going to look like.
And some early reports say that Apple’s sticking with LG to make displays for the Apple Watch 2.
The Apple Watch isn’t available in Indonesia yet, but that isn’t stopping fans there from buying them.
One man was so interested in the new wearable that he traded a scooter valued at over $1,000 to get his hands on Apple’s smartwatch.
Apple Watch owners have to rely on Siri more than iPhone users do, what with the lack of the keyboard and such. However, Siri’s got some funny easter eggs built right in, and it’s fun to try and figure them out.
Use your Apple Watch to ask Siri to show you her dance moves and she’ll bust out some lines that are funny, sure but end up sounding more like dad jokes, to be honest.
Jim Cramer, host of CNBC financial-advice show Mad Money, is a fan of the Apple Watch, but it doesn’t seem to be enough for him.

The next generation of Apple Watch’s software and apps was unveiled today at WWDC in San Francisco by Apple VP Kevin Lynch, who showed off a number of new features that probably should have been included on the device at launch.

Here’s everything you need to know about watchOS 2.0.
After getting an ear-full from Eddy Cue during Game 1 of the NBA Finals, LeBron James single handedly carried his team to a win last night to even the series at game a piece.
