For now there are no details available about the India availability or price.
Apple said that the Watch will be available in three collections, Apple Watch Sport, Apple Watch, and Apple Watch Edition, crafted from custom rose or yellow 18-karat gold alloys.
At an event in San Francisco, the company also detailed features of the Apple Watch.
The company said that the Watch is an accurate timepiece, an intimate communication device and a ground-breaking fitness companion.
"Apple Watch begins a new chapter in the way we relate to technology and we think our customers are going to love it," said Tim Cook, Apple's CEO.
"Conceived, designed and developed as a singular product, Apple Watch merges hardware and software like never before," said Jony Ive, Apple's senior vice president of Design. "In Apple Watch, we've created three beautifully curated collections with a software architecture that together enable unparalleled personalisation in a wearable device."
Apple said that the Watch introduces technologies like the Digital Crown, an way to scroll, zoom and navigate without obstructing the display. The retina display with Force Touch on Apple Watch senses the difference between a tap and a press, providing a new way to quickly and easily access relevant controls. The all-new Taptic Engine discreetly delivers a gentle tap on your wrist whenever you receive a notification or message.
Apple Watch will be available in two different sizes -- 38 mm and 42 mm. Apple Watch Sport features a lightweight anodised aluminium case in silver and space grey with a retina display protected by strengthened Ion-X glass and matching high-performance fluoroelastomer Sport Band in five colours. The Apple Watch collection features highly polished stainless steel and space black stainless steel cases with a Retina display protected by sapphire crystal. The Apple Watch collection comes with a choice of three different leather straps, a stainless steel link bracelet and Milanese loop, and a black or white Sport Band.
Apple Watch Edition features cases specially crafted from custom rose or yellow 18-carat gold alloys developed to be twice as hard as standard gold, a retina display protected by polished sapphire crystal and a choice of uniquely designed straps and bands with 18-carat gold clasps, buckles or pins.
Apple also said that there are a number of apps already available for the Watch. "From requesting an Uber, checking in to your American Airlines flight, booking a bike for your Equinox class to remotely controlling your Honeywell Lyric thermostat while away, the possibilities for Apple Watch apps are endless," said the company.
Apple said that the Watch delivers up to 18-hour all-day battery life.
