The $6.8 Billion revenue figure is based on $400 average per unit sales. . . but the average sales per unit so far has been $505. Why Horace Dediu would think it would suddenly drop to the price of the 42mm Aluminum Sport watch is questionable when Apple has been selling a mix of about 60% sport watches and 40% of the more expensive stainless steel models which sell for $599 to $1099.

With holiday sale pricing, It may drop to closer to $450 per unit average sales per unit price, but not as low as $400. Then the 21 million sales revenue would be more in the neighborhood of a little under $9.5 Billion.

No one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people.

The Apple Watch is quickly becoming the dominant wearable.

They haven't seen my two new Ruger LCRs.

(And they won't.)

Mr. Dewitt needs to stop smoking’ hemp. Last month Apple was on track to only sell 8 million watches by the end of the year, if that. We all know sales DECLINE the farther away from the product debut.

All mine does is offer a remote screen for my Iphone.

Maybe Iwatch 2 will be better.

I no longer wear my Iwatch 1.0
