rot in hell, wonderbread.
if the watch lasts a couple days and costs less than whatever is too much, i will buy a watch

but i fully expect the v2 watch to laugh maniacally as it chews the castrated testicles of the v1

does the reverso go counter-clockwise?

as inspired by the original reverso, you would flip the luxe-LCD screen around so it wouldn't get damaged when you play cyber-polo

other details in the mark gurman report

A designer familiar with the quality of mobile device screens who has used the Apple Watch says that the “screen is the best [smartwatch] screen I have ever seen,” noting that “it’s like vibrant digital paper, and does not look rendered,” with especially “great” black levels.

it's only $10,000 for a 5 hour battery life. not bad, you can do a lot in 5 hours.

reminder that jony ive said that "switzerland is hosed"

According to a designer who works at Apple, Jonathan Ive, Apple’s design chief, in bragging about how cool he thought the iWatch was shaping up to be, gleefully said Switzerland is in trouble — though he chose a much bolder term for “trouble” to express how he thought the watchmaking nation might be in a tough predicament when Apple’s watch comes out.

i am so out of touch with 'watch culture' or whatever, i bought a seiko kinetic in 2000 because it looked cool and was like $500 and then years later got a $1k movado sport but man, you guys turned me on to those spring grand seikos and they are some drat fine looking watches. oh i also have a gigantic purple nixon watch that was like $80 to match my purple shoes.

this is actually a thing, it's called ion exchange and is used to change the properties of a metal or glass by altering its density and surface tension. it's how gorilla glass is made, for example.
