Apple Watch online preorders started on April 10, Friday, at 12:01 AM. While order deliveries are to commence on April 24, customers are informed ahead that wait time is until August, the USA Today reported.

To be able to avail, the Apple Store app is a more reliable and quicker tool than the official Apple website, especially on launch days as traffic is expected to be high.

Since Apple is looking for ways to end the tradition of camping-in-line during iPhone launches, ordering an Apple Watch is the resort, the Cult of Mac shared. Apple, in fact, said that it is expecting demands to outnumber its supply; hence, the company will only be accepting Apple Watch orders online during the launch period.

To be able to maximize the ordering experience, experts suggest that it is best to have the watch delivered to the user's nearest Apple Store, this way, it could be picked-up early during the launch day instead of waiting for the delivery guy to come around and drop it in an office or home address.

Apple Watches' AppleCare+ costs $1, 500 for its Edition, $69 for its Standard, and $49 for its Sport. Aside from this, there is still a range of $69 to $1, 000 when the smartwatch gets broken. When possible, purchase the Apple Watch using a credit card that has an extended warranty offer. For example, American Express extends basic warranty for a year. Always check the credit card's benefits and do not forget to save the receipt.

Meanwhile, Apple has announced that they are already accepting 15-minute Concierge reservation appointments for those who are interested in checking and trying-out Apple Watch models.  To be able to book for an appointment, log-in on the official Apple website and select the most preferred appointments.
