"It was never clear who the $10,000 to $17,000 18-karat gold Apple Watch was for, beyond celebrities and the ultrarich"

Ummm I think it was for celebrities and the ultrarich.

It is a bit wild that Apple refuses to support this further. At that price you can buy things like Rolexes that will last your entire life.

Apple refused to support it 8 years ago when the Series 2 came out and there was no way to upgrade it.

It’s not a special watch. It’s a Series 0 with $16k of gold.

We don’t even know if anyone ever bought a single one (as opposed to being given one by Apple/an Apple exec).
