Apple’s limited-edition “Black Unity” Apple Watch now available
Apple announced last week that in celebration of Black History Month this month, it would launch a limited-edition “Black Unity” Apple Watch Series 6 and a special Sport Band. Today, the special-edition Unity collection is available to purchase online and through the Apple Store app.
Like the limited-edition AirPods Pro released for Chinese New Year, the new model has all the same features as the current Apple Watch Series 6, though it is only available for the month of February.
Starting at $399 (US) for the GPS model, the watch is inscribed with “Black Unity” and comes bundled with the “Black Unity” Sport Band, which is also available separately. The band has “Truth. Power. Solidarity.” laser-engraved onto the interior of the stainless steel fastening pin.
The aluminum case is made from 100 percent recycled aerospace-grade alloy and features a custom “Black Unity” laser-etched back crystal. The Black Unity Sport Band is inspired by the Pan-African flag and made from soft, high-performance fluoroelastomer with a pin-and-tuck closure laser-etched with “Truth. Power. Solidarity.”
As with all new Apple Watches, the device offers Apple Fitness+ free for 3 months. AppleCare+ is available for $79 or $3.99/mo.
