In just two months, the Apple Watch has reportedly taken a commanding lead in the smartwatch market with an estimated 2.79 million sales.</p><p>
That's according to Slice (https://www.slice.com/), a company that offers e-mail receipt tracking to consumers and turns the data into market research (http://intelligence.slice.com/). Slice's Apple Watch sales estimate is based on a panel of 2 million people, more than 20,000 of whom purchased an Apple Watch by mid-June, Reuters reports (http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/06/18/us-apple-watch-idUSKBN0OY0FC20150618).</p><p>
Nearly one out of five buyers Apple Watch buyers are also picking up a spare band to go with their $350-and-up smartwatch purchase, Slice estimates. Apple's black Sport band is supposedly the most popular choice—both as the pack-in band and as a $49 add-on—while the $149 Milanese loop came in second place. Not surprisingly, the basic Apple Watch Sport has been the best-selling model in Slice's analysis.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2937447/rough-apple-watch-sales-estimate-2-79-million-units.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
