They have typically announced product releases just about 2 to 8 weeks before they sell the first unit.

This is not a typical product release, it is a new product category. They need for developers to create apps before the first Apple Watch goes on sale.

And the timing is typical. Apple announced the first iPhone 6 months before its first sale. Again, they wanted applications (web in the instance of iPhone) to be available at initial product launch.

Bottom line, the time delay is so that the product is even more compelling at launch.

It also gives Google and Samsung marching directions for their wearables. 8^)
