Select Apple Watch Models Available In Stores In the UK and Australia

Earlier today we reported that Apple Watch shipments have started arriving at Apple Stores in the U.S. ahead of its in-store availability and now it appears that in-store sales of the Watch will go live in the U.S. tomorrow, June 17th.

Stores in both the UK and Australia have just begun opening and it appears that Apple has launched its new Reserve and Pickup system. Apple’s website for Reserve and Pickup also says that various Watch models are available in stores which again suggests U.S. availability is imminent.

Stock levels of Watch models are bit unclear, however, we’ve been told to expect a mix of Sport and Stainless steel models in both 38mm and 42mm. We’ve also been told that many bands are available in stores for those who already have Watches and are looking to pick up a new band.

The Apple Watch has been available exclusively online since April 10th, but it looks like that’s all about to change.
