Chip suppliers are gearing up to start production for the Apple Watch, according to DigiTimes' industry sources.

Orders for chips for the Apple Watch, set to debut in early 2015, are estimated at 30-40 million units, the sources indicated. The Apple Watch uses Apple's custom-designed system-in-package (SiP) chip, which miniaturizes an entire computer architecture onto a single chip.

Apple has yet to announce a launch day for the Apple Watch; however, recent reports suggest it could arrive in time for Valentine's Day. The stainless steel Apple Watch is predicted to cost around $500; whereas, the yellow or rose gold Apple Watch could cost between $4000 and $5000.

There are 34 Apple Watch models that customers will be able to choose from, check them out here if you haven't already!
