(www.apple.com)Second-generation Apple Watch could come with new Coach bands.

As the second half of the year starts, there are normally a lot of rumors about the upcoming iPhone lineup from Apple. This time around, there have also been quite a few about the Apple Watch 2, which is expected to arrive this year during WWDC or later on in September, and now new bands for the device have been hinted at.

Haute Ecriture states that they learned about the new bands for the Apple Watch from a sales person working at a Coach boutique. The salesperson also indicated that the bands will not be available right now but will instead be released sometime in June and go on sale in the fall. As soon as the rumors about the new bands from Coach started to emerge, many industry analysts were quick to tie them to the Apple Watch 2. They pointed out that since Apple is due to announce the second-generation device this year, the new bands from Coach may release along with it.

As for the rumored bands from Coach, they are going to be priced at $150 each, and there are indications that there will be a total of nine bands that will be created. Along with the rumors also come photos of the upcoming bands from Coach. Based from the photos, one of the bands will be white and have flowers emblazoned on it and the same is also available in brown. Additionally, Coach will be creating bands in saddle, black, and red.

Coming to the release date of the Apple Watch 2, many expect it to arrive either during Apple's upcoming WWDC event in June or be pushed to September to accompany the iPhone 7. Additionally, there are rumors that Apple is going to make the Apple Watch 2 iPhone independent as it could come with a SIM card on board. Using this, users will be able to make and receive calls from their smartwatch. Also, apps on the Apple Watch 2 will be able to function independently from the iPhone, and less data will have to be shared between them.
