Getting it anodized gold is a much better option than spray paint.

for $100 you can gold plate it if you take it apart yourself.

Amazing. I'd rather do this than to spend 17,000 on something that does the same thing as the 399 version. This is dope.

But can it clone exactly like the gold edition. There are a few missed spots the guy didn't get.

Next time u see a person wearing a gold apple watch, dnt pop ur eyes ! that might have just came out of this ;) !

The only problem is spray it gold your more then likely to get it nicked but the joke will be on them as try to sell it

Mr Logical - April 25, 2015 at 10:08pm

Now that had been done. Can someone do a DIY video turning apple watch edition into silver or black?

Hahaha nice trick

Teddyler - April 25, 2015 at 8:06pm

This wouldn't work because the spray paint would get in between the dial and buttons

gamerscul9870 - April 25, 2015 at 11:54pm

Then put something between team to capture the paint, or your u could take apart it and spray it. Do it at your own risk.

Someone could make some good money gold plating apple watches and band connections.

ywhat - April 25, 2015 at 9:23pm

Tech Jedi - April 26, 2015 at 6:44am

Absolutely profitable and practical to gold plate. Cheap too.
