It has been a while since Motorola’s Moto 360 smartwatch has been up for purchase though availability has proven to be tricky. The Moto 360 is regarded as one of the most beautiful smartwatches one can buy today given that its round design has received praised from most of the public. Those holding out for a gold color option would have been ecstatic to learn that it did become available on Amazon, but was pulled shortly after.
The product page that went live showed a gold colored Moto 360 smartwatch with a choice of 18mm or 23mm metal strap. Initially Motorola only sold the smartwatch in silver and black with leather straps, those waiting for the metal straps were told to stay put until the fall.
Before the product page was pulled it listed the Moto 360 with 18mm and 23mm strap at a $299 price with shipments expected to take place between 1 to 2 months. No explanation was provided as to why this was done and it is unclear right now if and when the gold color option for Moto 360 is going to surface once again.
Metal bands may soon be launched as well seeing as how we’re already well into the fall. Motorola will sell them with the smartwatch itself or as an accessory for those that have already picked up the Moto 360 at $80 a pop.
