CEO Tim Cook showed off the long awaited Apple Watch on Tuesday following the announcement of the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus.
The watch, which is the first new Apple product since 2011, will be available in two sizes and three different versions, according to The Hollywood Reporter. It will be available in the Apple Watch, Apple Watch Sport and Apple Watch Edition. The Sport comes with an aluminum casing and Edition is made from 18 karat gold.

"Apple Watch is made to be worn," Cook said. The new device will feature a flexible band and also has a dial on the side, which will allow for the screen to zoom in or out, allowing users to avoid covering up the screen trying to do so themselves.
