Apple Watch Edition initially limited to 53 retail outlets worldwide

Consumers who want to purchase a gold Apple Watch Edition —  or those who simply want to see it in the flesh —  may need to travel a bit if they live outside of the world's major cities, as Apple will initially stock the device at just 53 locations worldwide.

In the U.S., supplies will be limited to stores on the coasts and in Chicago —  aside from the Windy City, Las Vegas is the farthest inland the gold models will travel. The data comes from Apple's online store finder, and was first noted by MacRumors.

Other U.S. outlets include three of New York's six stores; two in the Bay Area; three in Los Angeles; and one each in Boston, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Atlanta, Miami, Tyson's Corner, Newark (Delaware), Houston, Dallas, and Seattle.

Apple's new department store spaces in London (Selfridges), Paris (Galeries Lafayette), and Tokyo (Isetan) bring those cities to three locations apiece. In China, the Edition will be available at every Apple Store in Hong Kong along with 12 of 19 locations on the mainland.
