Apple Watch pre-orders date and time overview: here's when you can place an order for the wearable

The Apple Watch is undoubtedly Cupertino's most personal device ever, as it's the first one you'll actually wear on you, unlike the iPhone in your pockets. The wearable first got introduced on September 9, 2015, when Tim Cook demonstrated it in front of the audience, which was already wooed by the two iPhone units that made the rounds right before the watch made debuted.

Roughly a month ago, during Apple's "Spring Forward" event, Apple further demonstrated the features and functionalities that the Apple Watch will bring to the table, as well as its price and release date. As you probably know, the wearable is coming on April 24, but you will be able to pre-order one starting on April 10, at 12:01 AM PDT.
