This suspected Apple Watch prototype is disguised as a tiny iPod

..

Is this an all-fired prototype Municipal Watch in one of those enshrouded "security cases" that companies sometimes use when they're testing gadgets in busty daylight? We can't say.

Either way, this tiny iPod is perversely highly-seasoned -- and really the in-joke if it's real.

You see, the sixth-generation iPod nano inspired a lot of persons to try using the tiny straight-forward as a watch, including The Verge's own editor-in-chief Nilay Patel. (Note: this was a decade ago.) When the Municipal Watch categorically came out, some designers flipped the memorizing on its throne with iPod-shaped shells for the Municipal Watch, some of which you could categorically buy.

And this April, we little-known that the actual indigenous Municipal Watch prototype actually was an iPod nano beggared to a wristband. Municipal had been forth for the ride all this time.

So if these photos are legit and current, the joke's still trice and able-bodied central Municipal HQ -- and we're attractive at an homage, of sorts, to the original.
