You don't. There is no way to make appointments for shopping, nor do you need to make one. Appointments are only for service.


Just go to a store, and tell them you want to buy something.

See ➡️ Shop with a Specialist - Apple. Although with COVID-19 group size limitations it may be hard or impossible to get an in-person appointment where you are located, partly because of demand, and partly because Apple appears to be giving priority to visits to the genius bar for repairs. But you can have an online shopping session, and probably even pick up your purchase curbside at an Apple store.

I just took a second look and after reading the one section on the web site for the McLean VA store it says this.

We’re open and look forward to welcoming you. Shop by walking in, reserving a one-on-one session with a Specialist or buy online and pickup in store. Get support at the Genius Bar in store or by making a reservation. Health and safety measures may be in place based on local conditions. Questions about safety measures at our stores? See FAQs.
How can we help you?

I missed the blurb stating that you can walk in now and don’t need an appointment. I wholeheartedly agree that it behooves people to make a reservation so that they don’t have to wait.

Can I make an appointment to pick up an apple watch

You don't need an appointment to pick up a watch if you bought the watch online and selected Pickup at store.


If you are going to be buying the watch at the store, then yes, you need an appointment for some stores. Check the "Shop with a Specialist" link provided in this thread many times already.

In case you haven’t noticed, there is a pandemic world wide that has infected 50 million people worldwide, including 10 million Americans, and killed 1.2 million worldwide, including 240,000 Americans. This has inconvenienced everyone, even you. It’s not a matter of lines, the controlling factor is the number of people in the store, which is limited by local regulations. Only an hour wait? This past week people waited on line 12 hours to vote.
