Apple Declares First-Gen Watches and $17K Gold Watch Obsolete, Denies Repairs
Apple has declared their $17,000 gold watch and all first-generation watches as obsolete, refusing to provide repairs or spare parts for them. This decision follows Apple's discontinuation of software updates for the gold watch in 2018. While the gold watch had limited popularity, those who own it may find value in selling it to collectors. Apple's latest edition of the Apple Watch, the ninth edition, offers improved performance and new features.
