Although many believe that the Apple Watch was the first product conceived and released under Tim Cook, Steve Jobs was apparently aware of the device, reports Fortune.
Wired's Secret History of the Apple Watch says, "Ive began dreaming about an Apple watch just after CEO Steve Jobs’ death in October 2011 ... This was to be the next step in a dynasty—the first without the guidance of Steve Jobs."
Creative Strategies' Tim Bajarin, who had an on-and-off relationship with Jobs dating back 35 years, disagrees.
“Steve was aware of the Watch,” Bajarin told an audience of analysts, developers, and venture capitalists Thursday at Glance, an Apple Watch conference in San Francisco. “He didn’t nix it as a product.”
Do you think Steve would have released the Apple Watch in its current iteration? Let us know in the comments!
