    Apple classifies a product as technologically obsolete once more than seven years have passed since the company stopped distributing it for sale. The original Apple Watch was discontinued in September 2016 … so the first-generation models recently crossed that seven-year mark.

    These devices haven’t been sold in 7 years.

      7 years is nothing for a watch (or a 10k watch for that matter), but lets gloss over this fact.
