So, how's Apple Smartwatch going to fit in a market where sales are already down by 11 percent? The NPD group reported that in June, only 927,500 watches were sold at $375 million -- the largest drop since 2008.
The California-based company hasn't released any reports on how many watch device they were able to sell. Bloomerg did some calculations comparing the selling price of the watch and the reported revenue growth of Apple in June, they were able to come up with an estimate of at least 1.9 million sold watches, according to PC Mag.
Analysts say that most buyers that are looking for watches under $1,000 will most likely buy an Apple Watch.
Some manufacturers welcomed the arrival of Apple Watch. The temporary setback on their sales is a risk they're willing to take. It may result in the growth of sales for Apple Watch but it will be balanced out by the fact that it can draw new customers into the market.
Manufacturers referred these people as the ones who has never worn a watch. Soon, when they get tired of their Apple device, they might look for other watches, and that's where they will be coming in.
