Apple Watch

Interesting read on why the high end Apple Watch Edition could have been priced even higher. The Apple Watch Edition is a classic Veblen product per the report which makes a lot of sense if you consider what the target market is for a $10k+ watch.

As with any product, I think it's best to skip the first generation.

There's no guarantee the next generation will come any time soon. A luxury watch is a low replacement rate item. I wouldn't be surprised if the Apple Watch's update rate is more akin to the Apple TV than the iPhone.

Apple is the most profitable company so it's worth it.
