Moscow TSUM will become the fourth shopping mall in the world in which the Apple Company opens a sales point of its smart watches. In April 2015, together with launching the line of smart watches, Apple opened three stores in the Gallery Lafayette in Paris, Selfridges in London and Isetan in Tokyo. There, as in other eight specialized boutiques worldwide, only Apple Watch are sold.
Unlike stores in London, Paris and Tokyo, Moscow Central Department Store will present not only watches but also other Apple gadgets – iPhones, iPads, the new 12-inch MacBook laptops – and accessories. The shop will also have a service point with in site diagnostics capability.
