Although the Apple Watch was just released on April 24th, that's not to say that every unit is working perfectly as expected. With the sheer volume of demand that Apple has to meet, Quality Control, also known as Q.C., can sometimes skip over a few defective units and they can fall through the cracks and reach the consumer.
Luckily, every Apple Watch comes with a warranty out of the box to protect the customer and the company from defects that slip through the Q.C., just like iPhones and other Apple products do.
If you were wondering what a replacement looks like out of the box when Apple needs to replace your Apple Watch due to a defect, Twitter user @mxweas (Max Weisel) has Tweeted some images of Apple's packaging for the replacement Apple Watch, as shown above.
Because this is a replacement, and not a brand new Apple Watch, you can see that the packaging is subtly simplified to house only the Apple Watch enclosure and not the entire assembly including the Apple Watch's wrist band, which can be recycled from the previous Apple Watch when receiving a replacement.
A brand-new Apple Watch, on the other hand, has a much more glamorous and jewelery-like presentation out of the box, as we shared with you just a couple of weeks before the Apple Watch was available:
It is interesting to see the packaging change from new Apple Watch to a replacement, but it certainly works and gets the job done.
Have any of you attempted to get a replacement Apple Watch from Apple since purchasing yours?
