First Apple Watch accessory – a charging case from Aussie company Studio Proper

Well that didn’t take long. The first Apple Watch accessory has hit the web with Aussie company Studio Proper revealing a case for the Apple Watch which also acts as a charger at the same time.

Studio Proper have been making a bunch of accessories for Apple products for some time, this “Watchkeeper” is the first in a “new line of products for Apple Watch”.

It’s a very nicely designed product which is meant to suit the elegance of the Apple Watch. When you get home from a long day, place the Watch in the case and it’s on display, or when closed it’s protected – and thanks to the space for Apple’s MagSafe charing cable it’s going to charge it at the same time.

So rather than having your charging cable laying on the bedside table, tuck the cables away in the WatchKeeper place down your watch and you’re charging.

Looks like a great idea which doesn’t require any technological testing, just space and cable management for the Apple provided charge cable that comes with your watch.

The WatchKeeper will be available in May 2015 for $59.95
