Apple made a limited-edition ‘Black Unity Collection' Apple Watch

Apple is introducing a limited-edition Apple Watch for Black History Month to "honor the ongoing fight for racial justice".

The watch, which is part of Apple's new Black Unity Collection of products, features a striped watch band striped with green, and colours inspired by the Pan-African flag. "The Black Unity Sport Band is made from individual pieces of coloured fluoroelastomer, which are assembled by hand and compression-molded into one", Apple explained in a press release.

The new Apple Watch also has a new Unity watch face, which creates a pattern that dynamically shifts over time. Otherwise, it's a standard aluminium Series 6 that starts at $399. Apple said a portion of the proceeds will go to civil rights orgs.
