Apple Has Sold 33 Million Apple Watches

According to estimates from Asymco’s Horace Dediu Apple has sold 33 million Apple Watches since the launch of the line over two years ago and 15 million in the past year. The analyst also says the unit sales in the past year add up to $4.9 billion in revenue. Dediu thinks the Apple Watch story is just beginning and compares the device to the early iPhones. In a note to clients, he writes: “The Watch was born a timepiece but it is traversing through the early iPhone and pulling in a new direction all of its own.”
