10 years later, here’s why my Apple Watch is the first thing I put on every day


It's been 10 years since the first Apple Watch shipped, and it's become a permanent staple in my everyday carry

Originally unveiled on September 9, 2014 as the company's big "One More Thing" surprise announcement, the watch took another seven months to ship, arriving at price points varying from $350 to upwards of $10,000.
