Apple Watch Nike+ and New Apple Watch Hermès Styles & Colors Unveiled

Apple unveiled the Apple Watch Series 2 at today’s big media event, and along with the new device, also announced two new “editions” of the popular smartwatch. Meet the Apple Watch Nike+ and the new styles and colors of the Apple Watch Hermès.

Apple Watch Nike+

The Apple Watch Nike+ offers the same new features as the Apple Watch Series 2, including a built-in GPS, brighter display, better waterproofing, and improved processor and GPU. However, it also offers some special “Nike+ Only” features.

The Nike Sport band is created from the same flexible fluoroelastomer as the original Apple Watch Sport Band, but it is perforated for better ventilation and sweat management. The band is available in four, flashy two-tone color combination, that make it unique to the Nike+ model.

The Apple Watch Nike+ also offers two exclusive watch faces that can easily be personalized with useful apps like Activity Rings, Heart Rate, Stopwatch and Weather, helping runners stay informed at a glance.

Apple Watch Nike+ takes advantage of the unique capabilities of Apple Watch Series 2 and the Nike+ Run Club app to be the perfect running partner on your wrist. The app experience is seamlessly built into Apple Watch Nike+ and easily accessed right from the watch face, so users can get going with a quick tap. The Nike+ Run Club app offers daily motivation through smart run reminders, challenges from friends and even alerts informing when the weather is right to get outside.  Training data, including pace, distance and heart rate are available at a glance, and through shared run summaries, the app promotes friendly competition, even allowing users to send fist bumps to each other right from the wrist.

Apple Watch Hermès New Styles & Colors
