Apple Sells Apple Watch Sport with Guaranteed Delivery Date to Select Developers

Apple is sending out exclusive emails to developers, giving them the chance to purchase a 42mm Apple Watch Sport that has a Blue Sport Band, and with a guaranteed shipment date on April 28. It’s worth noting that the chosen developers will still need to purchase the Apple Watch. The only advantage is that they will be able to test their apps sooner than expected.

Apple clearly wants to give its developers the opportunity to test their WatchKit apps as soon as possible. By doing so, Apple will also benefit from the pool of polished apps that are guaranteed to work well on the Apple Watch. Apple says that the expedited offer is limited. Developers can register up until April 23, at 10 A.M.

From a business perspective, it’s possible that Apple has an ample supply of the 42mm Apple Watch Sport and Blue Sport Band. In fact, some developers are guessing that Apple is trying to get rid of its excess Apple Watch stock by selling them to developers.

“We want to help give Apple developers the opportunity to test their WatchKit apps on Apple Watch as soon as it is available. You have the chance to purchase one (1) Apple Watch Sport with 42mm Silver Aluminum Case and Blue Sport Band that’s guaranteed to ship by April 28, 2015,” the promo reads.
