Cook said that Apple was the second highest earning watch brand in the world after Rolex in terms of sales revenue. "The watch will learn about you over time,” Jeff Williams, Apple's chief operating officer shared in the Apple Event in San Francisco where all the latest changes were announced to the entire array of Apple products.
