Brilio.net/en - Chinese New Year is knocking on our door! Chinese, who have long kept tradition of having everything embellished in red during the celebration, are preparing to welome the prosperous Year of the Monkey in style. And Apple knew this.
Hence, Apple is releasing the Apple Watch Sport model in bold red straps (for good luck), in two new finishes: yellow gold aluminium and silver aluminium. Both styles will be available in 38mm and 42mm watch sizes.
These special editions will only be available between January 15 and February 22, in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore and Malaysia.
Traditionally, Chinese believe that red is an auspicious color to help ward off evil spirits and ill fortune. Yet practically, the pretty sharp red watch is a perfect addition to their Chinese New Year OOTDs.
Apple is releasing the Chinese New Year watches for pre-orders on each of the mentioned countries websites. It will be priced similar to the original Apple Watch Sport, starting at S$518 (around Rp5 millions) for the 38mm and S$598 (around Rp5.8 millions) for the 42mm version.***
