Apple Watch has adopted "trying at the store" and "booking online" but it is SVP of Apple's retail and online store divisionAngela AhrendtsAccording to Mr. Apple Watch, since it is a completely new category of products that Apple has not dealt with before, it is working on a different sales method than before. Reservation products accepted online are scheduled to be shipped sequentially from Friday, April 24, but over-the-counter sales will start from June 2015. Regarding the start timing of over-the-counter sales, Mr. Ahrendts said in an in-house e-mail, "To meet the global demand of Apple Watch, we currently focus only on online reservation sales, I will let you know in advance, but I will only be online sales for the whole of May, "he says to the staff.

Also, Mr. Ahrendts on display at storefront that began on April 10 (Friday) said "I'm glad that customers who came to the store got a positive response to Apple Watch." However, it was not easy to shift from selling at the Apple Store store front to online selling method, so it is not currently planned to take the same method when new products are released in the future.

In addition, the number of reserved units of Apple Watch in the United States reached approximately 1 million units on the first day of reservation start. In the forecast by KGI Securities Apple Watch is showing a tremendous momentum that the total number of reservations worldwide will exceed 3.2 million by the end of April, and it seems that its popularity is plentiful.
