Apple has quietly updated its Apple Watch to remove the April 24th launch date. The site now reads 'The Watch is coming.' in place of 'Available 4.24.15'.
The change follows the announcement that the Apple Watch will not be available to purchase in retail stores on April 24th.
Customers have expressed concern to Apple that the launch date is misleading and more of a delivery date than a launch date if the device is not available to purchase in stores. Apple's executive team is reportedly taking those complaints very seriously and this may be a step to help prevent any customer confusion. If you haven't ordered one already you could be waiting into July depending on model you want.
Take a look at screenshots of the old and new page below. You can follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, or RSS for updates.
