$10,000 Gold Apple Watch Edition Crushed By Magnets [Video]

$10,000 Gold Apple Watch Edition Crushed By Magnets [Video]

Posted June 14, 2015 at 8:36pm by
TechRax has taken his Apple product torture tests to the next level, crushing a $10,000 gold Apple Watch Edition with neodymium magnets.

What better way to put the 38mm 18k yellow gold Apple Watch Edition to use then to crush it with 2 powerful neodymium magnets equaling to 650 pounds of force!


Those of you who like the look of the gold watch, but can't afford to spend $10,000 on one, should check out this gold plating option.

Take a look at the video below...

What does it prove? Two things: 1. iClarified will post almost anything, regardless of how lame brain. 2. Slow news day! :p

Videos like this reach millions of views from curious viewers. Millions of views equals a fat check from YouTube ads. I doubt the maker of this video used an actual gold Apple watch, specially since it's fairly easily to plate on in gold nowadays but he/she will surely make the money for it.

He showed the box, he showed the inscription on the back of the watch(which would not be present if you did gold plating). It was definitely a real Apple Watch edition.

I'm calling BS on this one. Notice the supposed "real" iWatch disappears out of frame for a long time while the magnets are introduced and discussed. Then, the watch is brought back into frame under the guise of being the same watch. I realized that the end result was a crushed watch that looks very much like an iWatch. Nevertheless, I'm calling BS.

Especially considering the little caveat about "plating!"

The only entertainment is how much people wasted money on stuff to destroy. We laugh in their humiliation.

It's only $10,000 don't see what the big deal is. I spend at least that much every 2 days.

I would have been more interested if it were dropped from some high building then to have that done !

I have yet to understand how destroying an Apple device in so many ways proves anything. It never claims to be indestructible

It proves that it's fun to watch.

gamerscul9870 - June 15, 2015 at 3:17am
The only fun here is watching how much money they wasted over useless test to prove nothing.

Its not wasted money, because this person makes more money on this video. Nice try though.
gamerscul9870
gamerscul9870 - June 16, 2015 at 7:05pm
That depends. Can he reach a certain number of views and get all of his money back? Nice try yourself!
Woz
Woz - June 16, 2015 at 9:39pm
With the amount of money he makes on his other videos I think he can choose to justify this expense. If he couldn't then he probably wouldn't have done this video.

gamerscul9870 - June 16, 2015 at 9:58pm
At what chance? How many videos, what amount of views, how much in total?
