In the morning, I saw people lined up in front of Apple partner boutiques in Tokyo and Los Angeles in order to wait for the launch Apple Watch, and now we see what happened in Paris. According to those who were present in the location today, no less than 150 people lined up in front of the Colette store to be able to buy the Apple Watch.
Considering that only a limited number of partner boutiques Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), they had Apple Watch in stock, it was normal to see long queues in front of them made up of people willing to buy the watch. Although the queues are smaller than in the case of iPhone terminals, the stocks were similar, several hundred units being sent to each location and it is unlikely that anyone left without an Apple Watch at home.
If in Paris there were at least 150 people in line to buy Apple Watch, in London the queue was much smaller in front of the only store that had Apple Watch in stock, there but a few dozen people being present. Less interest in the UK could be related to shorter delivery times for pre-orders, but no one knows for sure yet.
Despite the fact that the Apple Watch has generated different interest in various areas of the globe, the success of the smartwatch is not directly related to these images or to others from various other locations. Considering that the information regarding the physical availability of the Apple Watch appeared late after a long campaign through which we were informed that no one would be able to buy the watch today, it was normal that in some countries there would be small queues.
