Early hands-on with the Apple Watch

Technology giant Apple entered the smartwatch market on Tuesday, unveiling its first wearable at an event in California.

The Apple Watch runs apps, acts as a health and fitness tracker and communicates with the iPhone.

It features a bespoke interface, as well as a "digital crown" button, which allows for easy navigation.

The BBC's Richard Taylor was among the first to try the new device.
