Apple has designed national flag watch bands for its Apple Watch, but the watch bands in support of the Olympic Games will only be available in Rio. The limited-edition watch band series features the flags of 14 of the nations competing in the Summer Olympic Games in Rio.
The watch bands will be available at the Apple Store in Barra de Tijuca, Rio de Janerio. The collection includes watch bands based off of the American, British, French, Japanese and Brazilian flags. Apple has already gifted some of the national flag watch bands to Olympic athletes ahead of the public release in August, with US sprinter Trayvon Bromell tweeting a picture featuring an American flag-inspired watch band. Fans can help show their support of their nation's Olympic athletes with the limited-edition watch bands.
