New iWatch rumors: circular shape, slimmer than Moto 360, production to start in July or August
Rosenblatt Securities analyst Brian Blair has returned from Taiwan with a fresh pack of iWatch rumors from his supply chain sources. According to this, Apple's timepiece will have a circular shape, just like the Moto 360. However, the iWatch will have a slimmer profile, and if we know Apple's design and engineering teams, they'll be making sure the device is as thin and elegant as they can possibly make it.

Additionally, Blair claims the iWatch will move into production sometime in July or August. Apple might be looking at 18 to 21 million units for the second half of 2014, which is quite serious for a wearable and means Cupertino is confident in its success. There will be models of the iWatch for males and females, but there are no details on the differences between the two.

Other recent iWatch rumors point at a WWDC reveal, which doesn't seem too soon considering the device will start production in a month or two. We're definitely curious whether Apple will show the world its timepiece on June 2nd.
