Rumors have been swirling about when Apple will release its new Apple Watch. While the company has stuck to its messaging that the Series 7 will release "later this fall," Hermes, a notable partner brand to Apple with the Apple Watch, told its customers that they would be able to preorder the new watch starting on October 8, 2021.
You'll be able to pre-order the new Apple Watch in just over a week, according to Hermès, one of Apple's official partners. In multiple emails from Hermès, obtained by AppleTrack, customer service says "Apple Watch Series 7 will be available for preorder beginning October 8. 2021. Please let us know if you have any further questions!"
That report lines up with speculation from leaker Jon Prosser who also predicted that preorders for the Series 7 could begin this week with shipments beginning in mid-October.
The Apple Watch Series 7 features a larger and brighter screen, faster charging, and a more durable display. Before you pick up a Series 7, check out our comparison between the Apple Watch Series 7 vs. Series 6.
