Should have mentioned in my previous post...
Apple Watch Sport 42mm Space Gray Aluminum Case with Black Sport Band
Ordered on April 30
It comes in a rectangular cardboard box about 3x3x14 inches, which is surprisingly heavy - about one Kg. Given the size and weight, you'll think they sent you a 12 inch adjustable wrench. Inside is a slightly smaller box, all white in typical Apple style. This box is very solid, which accounts for most of the weight. The packaging inside that box is similar to the way an iPhone is packed. The watch was 92 percent charged, so I was able to start experimenting with it right away. From the time I started to cut open the outer box until I had a fully functional Apple Watch on my wrist was about half an hour.
