When you buy it from Apple Store or other retailers, there is no guarantee how long they have been sitting there in the box anyways. I won't have any concern if it's idle in a box for few months. Probably will start to worried if it's sitting there for years. And as a PSA, please don't let tech items sit for years, Apple Watch is a tech item and not jewelry. :-)
true, there's always a chance you get one thats been sitting for months. I just assumed there's a higher chance the inventory in stores gets replaced often cuz of customers buying and new shipments arriving.
Yes, you are right. It has a high chance that the inventory is fresh especially for very popular Apple products. However, I'm sure there are items that are not as popular that will sit in the store shelves for months or longer before people buy them.
