This new watch is essentially an iPhone on your wrist that you can style with different bands from the three different collections; Apple Watch, Apple Sport, and Apple Edition. Each collection features numerous bands to fit every stylistic preference. Apple Watch is your classic watch with silver and gold link bands. Apple Sport is more durable and colorful bands for a fun and relaxed look. Lastly, Apple Edition will be the trendiest of the three with a gold casing and more detailed bands and clasps.

With the combination of the all the incredible features and styles, the Apple Watch is a game changer in both the smartwatch and fashion industries. Apple recruited an incredibly fashion oriented team including former YSL CEO, Paul Deneve, Nike design director, Ben Schaffer, and former Burberry CEO, Angela Ahdrents, in order to create a smartwatch that could break into the fashion industry. They created a watch that can be tailored in many ways to match your personal style. Aside from just choosing from the different bands, you can set your own picture as the face of the watch, pick from one of the numerous themes, and choose from the six different alloy options for the base of the watch.

The watch will be available for sale in early 2015 starting at $349. Are you loving the cross between fashion and technology in Apple’s latest gadget? Let us know in the comments below!
