Titanium Apple Watch Series 6 unavailable for pick-up from many Apple Stores

Many luxury watches cost 4, 5 or 6 figures. An Apple Edition luxury watch costs only 3 figures ($800). I don't think spending $800 every few years will bother anyone who buys luxury watches.

Also I suspect Apple is just “rotating” back to Ceramic for the next models due out this Fall.

AppleInsider said:

The wide unavailability of the Apple Watch Series 6 in titanium points to Apple significantly limiting its production run, with one report proposing Apple could ditch the titanium "Edition" model entirely.

The Apple Watch Edition version of the Apple Watch Series 6 houses the wearable device in a titanium or Space Black titanium case. However, according to a report, the availability of the model is quite limited.

According to Mark Gurman's "Power On" newsletter for Bloomberg, the titanium model is listed as unavailable for pickup from Apple Stores in the United States, as well as other major markets. AppleInsider confirmed the situation with its own checks.

Apple has yet to officially discontinue the model, but it seems plausible given rumors of a new Apple Watch Series 7 launching in the fall.

It is reasoned by Gurman that the premium model was only made in small numbers, on the expectation they wouldn't sell well. Manufacturing probably ended in the spring, with the unavailability being due to the supply of the model finally starting to run out, he offers.

As for the Apple Watch Series 7, Gurman believes it's plausible Apple could ditch the Edition material entirely. "What's the point of spending $800 or more on a watch that will be outdated in one year and nonfunctional in under five?" Gurman proposes.

Yeah, I find it interesting that I can’t even get an iPad Air repaired because it’s 6 and a half years old. 

I assumed this meant a new one is around the corner.

”what’s the point of spending $800”

RICH PEOPLE DON’T CARE!!!

I’m sick of this poor man’s logic from the critics. The Watch doesn’t stop working when the new one is announced and Apple doesn’t remotely disable it when the new Series goes on sale. Even the original Edition still functions and is more capable than every Rolex in history and every non-Apple smart watch. It’s probably worth more today than when it released!

You would be the only one who finds that interesting. 
Btw, you can get it repaired. But that fact is not going stop these type posts.
