Apple Watch will seriously affect the sales of watches, or other types of jewelry, during the winter holidays, according to analysts who were surprised by the popularity of the Apple Watch 4. According to them, the jewelry industry is going to register a serious blow from Apple's smartwatch in this year's winter holidays.
Apple Watch 4 is more expensive than the models released last year, and this price increase will affect other industries because consumers will not have money to buy other gifts. In this idea, analysts expect Apple to sell no less than 10 million units of its smartwatches during the winter holidays, a real record.
Apple Watch Will Leave Watchmakers WITHOUT Christmas Sales
Apple's competitors will not represent a problem for Apple Watch sales, and this is because the vast majority of people are not interested in buying their products. It is known that the Apple Watch has been the best-selling smartwatch for several years, generating as many sales as several of Apple's competitors combined, and that will not change soon.
"We expect Apple will sell almost 10 million watches in the December quarter, and could account for almost $9 billion total calendar year 2018 sales. Competing watches expected for the holiday season from Google and others are unlikely to be an issue for Apple: customers already in the Apple ecosystem will stay with the Apple Watch to use the combined features."
The Apple Watch is much "cooler" than the competing products of the Apple company, and this is because the Americans know how to make it much more interesting than anything else on the market. The success of the Apple Watch is something clear, palpable, but 10 million units sold in a fiscal quarter is something that still seems quite hard to believe at this moment.
