Griffin Technology has announced Griffin WatchStand, the first accessory in their new line of products for Apple Watch. The charging and display dock provides a safe, secure place to charge Apple Watch when it's not being worn.

“The introduction of the Apple Watch ushers in what is bound to be the next generation of wearable technology,” said Mark Rowan, President of Griffin Technology. “Griffin has long been at the forefront of developing solutions for Apple’s newest devices and we’re continuing that legacy with our WatchStand charging dock for Apple Watch.”




Features:
WatchStand displays Apple Watch on a sleek pedestal, and can be placed on any nightstand, tabletop or desktop for convenient daily charging. WatchStand houses the Apple-provided magnetic charging cable in an angled cradle that keeps it ready to charge at all times. For initial assembly, the user simply feeds the magnetic cable through the center of the post, and then, to charge each day, lays the Apple Watch against the cradle. The magnetic connector gently snaps itself onto the back of the watch and begins charging.

The versatile WatchStand is compatible with all versions of the Apple Watch and holds it at an easy viewing angle as it charges. Accommodating both semi-flexible and fully flexible bands, WatchStand securely displays and charges Apple Watch vertically or horizontally for the perfect view.

Since Apple Watch and iPhone go hand in hand, WatchStand’s weighted base has a home for a phone as well. The raised lip on the front of the dock holds the phone at the perfect angle for easy viewing. WatchStand also solves cable management problems, with a grooved post for extra cord length to wrap neatly around, keeping tabletops uncluttered, and the charge cable from becoming crimped or tangled.

Pricing & Availability:
Griffin’s WatchStand will be available Summer 2015 for $29.99 from store.griffintechnology.com/watchstand.

What we need is something that charges your iPad, iPhone & watch simultaneously in the same device elegantly without taking up yards of unnecessary table space. One wall plug for the entire unit. One handed connect & disconnect. Give it a sensual shape and make it out of a beautiful material like brushed chrome or lacquered wood (not plastic) so that it becomes almost a decorative item... one that when not in use you still enjoy looking at it. People are paying considerable $$$ for Apple products... they want the accessories that they use with them to be built to the same standards of thoughtful design and quality materials.

Funny you mention this. After seeing the charger for the watch I had this same idea of a good looking and elegant stand of some sort. I've actually been drawing up and designing something of the sort and working with a neighbor who is a carpenter. You name the wood he can work with it. Hopefully we can do something significant with it when the designs are done.

Interesting but Too bulky! And why doesn't this double as a charging cradle for the iPhone?

Dude! You make a stand for an iPhone and Apple Watch to be together, you put a watch charge port in it and not one for an iPhone? The logic is beyond me.

Yeah, I was going to say the same thing, maybe because it's mfi certified and apple doesn't want there to be two cables on one plug, they want you to spend more money on this and another cable, or maybe they have that better model in development but want people to buy this one then rebuy the newer one when it comes out to get more money out of people
