Time goes by for Apple Watch-exclusive

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Time has run out for Japan’s Apple Watch-exclusive store.

Inside Shinjuku’s Isetan department store, it is one of three pop-ups the tech titan built when launching the wearable in 2015. Its last day will be May 13.

Apple shut down the other two pop-ups, in London and Paris, early last year. The Tokyo one closes a month after a fully fledged Apple Store opened opposite Isetan.

According to 9to5mac and Gizmodo Japan, the shop has held a fire sale on Isetan’s website to sell its remaining Apple Watch Edition devices at prices as low as $700 (the 18-karat gold watches sold for at least US$10,000 and as much as US$17,000 when they first became available).
