Starting at $369, the ‘Apple Watch Series 2’ will be water resistant to 50 meters and the speaker will literally repel the water like a piston.

The device will have a dual core processor with GPU that is up to two times faster.

Since Navratri — an auspicious time for shopping — begins on October 1, and with Diwali falling on October 30, this is a strategic time for Apple to register super iPhone 7 sales in India.
