okay well if it's really made out of gold, that's a realistic price. it's sort of weird for apple. their stuff is more on the expensive side, but i never remember them making some special luxury item. it's also weird to me that they just didn't make on that was a gold color like the iphone 5s. in the end, wouldn't the demand for it make more money than a product that's actually made out of gold and costs a ton more?

theyre still selling the poors edition starting at $349

real gold is going to make it a status item like their stuff has never been before, but they'll still get the volume from the masses buying the aluminum one

okay that's good and i guess that's okay. i don't think they are really singling anyone else out by doing this and it's kinda cool imo

e: but also dumb because this thing is going to be obsolete in 5 years and isn't a timeless piece of jewelry like other watches

"porsche design" is either like, yeah just take the first gen 911 and like add some new type of headlight bulb and change the interior a lil. and for technology its like "yeah just make it kinda thin and use brushed aluminum".

i agree with gruber that apple will offer a program to swap out the guts for newer guts to address this issue
