We should all feel stupider for having even clicked on this thread. Any idiot knows how to get a hold of Apple. I haven't checked, but I'm 99% sure the address is apple.com/contact just like it is for every other website. Someone just wants attention
 
While this guy is likely throwing the hook out there - you actually could have gotten a free apple watch. If you had pre-ordered two as soon as pre-orders went on sale, many people were getting close to double the retail price on eBay etc. I know I have a buddy who got $1,100 for one of his Apple Watch 42MM with Black Sport Bands.... Next product launch, I'm going full YOLO
 
OP is not lying, I got one for free too. Basically go to the try on appointment at an Apple Store, and while u r trying it on, while the employee turns his head, swap the watch with your moto 360
 
Did you initiate a replacement-return, send them back an empty box to have their computers register it was returned, and then have a new one automatically sent out, because the process isn't in place yet to comb through watches being sent back?

Is my guess. I just want it on record. No idea how any of this works :)
 
There are other ways of contacting Apple OTHER than emailing Timmy C directly?! Blow me down, I just thought he was really rude not answering all my mails this whole time.

I ordered and fully paid for 1 watch. After getting it, I noticed the possibility to get another at no charge. I wasn't sure if it would actually work, so I gave it a shot. It worked, and now that I have proof of concept, I want Apple to be aware of the issue. I will also be returning the second watch.

Send me your second watch otherwise I am not sure that I believe you

Would a Casio G-Shock work?

I'm sure there are also UPS tricks to steal apple watches as well.

I've found a loophole that allows someone to get a free Apple Watch directly from Apple. I have emailed Tim Cook's email address, but haven't gotten a response yet. Is there another channel I can go through? Before anyone asks, I will not publicly discuss the specifics of the loophole. But I can assure you, it works, and I have another Apple Watch in hand that didn't cost me anything.

Show me the loophole where I just get the Watch I paid for.
 
UPDATE: Got a call from Apple Executive Relations this afternoon. They were very appreciative, and are going to get back to me after they speak with their billing department. Once I hear back from them, I'll spill the beans. In the mean time, I'll be sending back the watch tomorrow.
