Apple has started shipping the gold Apple Watch Edition model to pre-order customers, reports MacRumors. Some of the first orders are set to begin arriving tomorrow.
iFixit's Kyle Wiens ordered a 38mm Apple Watch Edition with a Black Sport Band and shared his tracking information and courier emails with MacRumors. His order was initially placed on April 10 and shipped out on Thursday, May 21. His delivery date was originally set for Sunday, May 24, but was moved up to Saturday, May 23.
Wiens had initially ordered the device to do a teardown but has since decided it's too expensive and plans on returning the device. Wiens did say that if anyone has an Apple Watch Edition they would loan out, he can perform a non-destructive metallurgical analysis on the device.
The Apple Watch Edition model ranges from $10,000 to $17,000 in price thus its delivery process is somewhat different from the regular models. Customers receive an email asking them to set up a specific time when they will be available to take delivery of the device.
So far, the Apple Watch Edition has only been available in limited quantities at select luxury boutiques or as part of Apple's product placement efforts.
