The Apple Watch Sport comes at Rs 39,900 and the Apple Watch is available for Rs 48,900, and is available in Gold, Rose Gold, Space Gray, Silver Anodized Aluminium, silver and black colours.
The lowest priced variants are Silver Aluminium Case and White Sport Band at Rs 30,900 and Rs 34,900 for 38mm and 42 mm sizes respectively, while the most expensive is the Apple watch Edition, made in 18-Carat Rose gold casing, which starts at Rs 8.2 lakh and goes up to Rs 14.2 lakh. All this while the Apple Watch Hermes designer range has not even been launched in India.
