The new fashion-focused Apple Watch will
come in a wide variety of styles and two different sizes, aiming to
offer the right device for each wearer's particular style and needs.
The Apple Watch is something of a departure for Apple, which historically
has not offered a wide range of styles in its products. But the
company's new wearable device will come in three distinct collections: A
basic made of stainless steel, a sport version with an aluminum casing,
and a high-end edition made of hardened 18-karat gold.
All three editions of the Apple Watch are also offered in two sizes, depending on which better fits a user's wrist.
The Apple Watch can be customized even further with six different styles
of watch straps. Apple's unique design has a quick-release mechanism
that allows the straps to be quickly interchangeable.
Apple's watch bands are made of elastomer-based sport band, leather loop
with embedded magnets, leather band, classic leather buckle type,
stainless steel and stainless steel mesh with magnetic closure. Some of
the bands include hidden magnetic clasps to allow the accessory to be
quickly worn or removed.
Customizable watch faces are also a key factor for Apple's device, with
the head of the product's software development, Kevin Lynch, showcasing
how users can mix and match different functions and displays. Apple
showcased a number of watch faces it's created, including one that shows
phases of the moon, another that shows the positions of the planets, or
where a user is currently located.
SuperWears has all these to Offer.

The Apple Watch is out.
Apple's Sept. 9 press conference was mainly to unveil the iPhone 6
but some details about the previously dubbed "iWatch" now called the
Apple Watch were also revealed. It seems the unveiling of the watch came
just in time before Motorola is to release their Moto 360.
Still, even with the impending release of the Moto 360, Apple still has to face their rival Samsung in the release of smartwatches, which Samsung has been doing long before Apple released the Apple Watch. The latest offering the South Korean company, the Gear 2 is currently Apple's most recent competition in the smartwatch market.
Both watches share a square-face design with a few differences on the side. With the Apple Watch, it has a single knob and button on the side. The Gear 2 on the other hand has a home button at the bottom part of the watch and a 2-megapixel camera to the top of the watch.
A slew of features were unveiled during the Sept. 9 press conference. Basically, the Apple Watch works as a wrist-hub connected to a user's iPhone and works to display any incoming notifications, messages, and Siri eliminating the need for users to take their phones out everytime a new notification is received.
The Apple Watch runs on a custom S1 SiP (System in Package) chip and is equipped with a GPS, an accelerometer, a heart-rate sensor, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and is protected with a sapphire glass cover.
The Gear 2 on the other hand features a 1.0 GHz dual-core Exynos 3250 system-on-chip, 512MB RAM, and 4GB of internal memory. The Samsung smartwatch shares similar features with the Apple Watch but can also operate on its own as a stand-alone device.
As for compatibility, the Apple Watch is only compatible with the iPhone. The same goes with the Gear 2, only offering compatibility with Samsung devices like the Galaxy S smartphone series and the Galaxy Note phablet series.
