We have covered Apple Watch quite extensively over here at Vulcan Post, including the 15 Apple Watch apps we are most excited to try out, as well as spoken to a Singaporean who managed to get his hands on the Apple Watch.

The Apple Watch comes in three different designs, amongst them the normal Apple Watch, and the Apple Watch Sport.
