While Apple is primarily known for computer and cellphone technology, their foray into the world of watches appears to be setting a standard with which watchmakers are now forced to reckon. Click on this presentation to see Jonah Engler's thoughts on the tech giant's move.

1. Apple Smart Watch — the Future of
Watches
Apple is poised to release a watch that is destined to change the industry. The Apple Smart
Watch with its myriad features is hailed by many technology experts as the future of watches.
While Apple is primarily known for computer and cellphone technology, their foray into the
world of watches appears to be setting a standard with which watchmakers are now forced to
reckon. The Apple Smart Watch looks like it will dramatically change the watchmaking
business. The watch has many unique features, yet one does not have to be technology savvy to
fully utilize it.

2. The new Apple watch allows users to do things with a watch few watchmakers have ever even
considered. It’s really an intuitive, interactive, highly advanced miniaturized computer
conveniently located on your wrist. The capabilities of this timepiece are staggering. It helps
people to communicate, pay bills, input, navigate, select and do many everyday activities quicker
and easier. But the watch also has a slew of apps which can help users improve their personal
lives as well.
It’s all about the apps. The Apple Smart Watch comes with 20 apps preinstalled and access to
1,000 more. The preloaded apps allow users to access email, IM, and social networks. It also has
a heart rate monitor, can tell you the distance, pace, and time of your workout, and the number of
calories you’ve burned. Some of the other preloaded apps include Apple Maps, Calendar,
Camera Remote, Music, Passbook, Photos, and Weather. Plus there’s ‘taptic’ feedback,
notification at a glance, touchscreen, digital crown, and numerous other ways you and your
watch can interact.
The Apple Smart Watch will revolutionize the way people pay for products and services. Its new
private, simple, and super secure contactless payment technology takes Apple Pay to an entirely
new level. You can pay for anything you buy anywhere using your Apple Smart Watch and no
one ever sees or stores your credit card or banking information.
Yes this watch is the next ‘must have’ from Apple. With 8 GB of storage, a battery that lasts
practically all day, superior design, craftsmanship, technology, style, and accurate timekeeping,
everyone who’s anyone will want one. And with prices ranging from $349 to $17,000, for this
water-resistant, iOS 8.2-friendly watch, they can afford it. People are waiting with baited breath
for April 24 when the Apple Smart Watch will be released in 9 countries.
