Apple Watch Price: Apple’s 18k Gold Version iWatch May Cost $5000 Which May Release On February Next Year

Nov 07, 2014 11:56 AM EST | By Staff Reporter

French website iGen recently reported that the premium, gold-plated Apple Watch Edition model will sell for up to $5,000, with the standard Apple Watch and Apple Watch Sport retailing for $500 and $350, respectively.

All versions are rumored to arrive and be released on Valentines Day February 14 next year.

According to its description on Apple's website, the Watch Edition model sports an 18-karat gold watch case that is designed to be "twice as hard as standard gold."

The watch utilizes a sapphire crystal display, and can be outfitted with either a leather or sport wristband.

The less luxurious Apple Watch packs a stainless steel case that comes in black and silver, with the option for either a leather band or one of several steel bracelets.

The Apple Watch Sport, rumored to be the most affordable of the bunch, has an anodized aluminum case and uses plastic wristbands.

We'll have to spend more time with the Apple Watch to see how it stacks up to devices like the LG G Watch R and the Samsung Gear S, but, if these rumors hold up, Apple will at least have the title of "most expensive wearable" secured.

If the Watch Sport is Apple's lowest-end smart watch at $350, it's still more expensive than premium-looking Android Wear watches like the G Watch R.

If you do have the cash to blow on these potentially high Apple Watch prices, you can at least surprise your significant other with one.

The watch is currently rumored to arrive on Valentine's Day 2015, though Apple's website still lists a vague "early 2015."
