Apple Watch Sightings on The Increase

MacRumors reports that sightings of the Apple Watch have increased as we move closer to launch. A number of people have seen the device in the wild being used most likely by Apple employees. It’s been rumoured that Apple has dispatched hundreds or maybe even a couple thousand watches to the most senior employees within Apple. All of this will be part of the company’s stringent testing programme leading to its release in April.

One such watch was spotted on an unidentified wrist seen by Vogue Editor Suzy Menkes who posted the above image on Instagram. Another was spotted on the wrist of a customer in a restaurant in the Marina district of San Francisco.

Rumours have suggested that the company has hastily been working on improving the battery life of the device, with them managing to get at least a nightly charge out of it with average use. As well as that, it seems testers will also be focusing on the device’s software, as Apple tries to iron out any bugs.

One wonders whether these testers need to have the thing padlocked to their wrist.
