Are you waiting for Apple to launch their much-rumored iWatch? Well, I guess you have to choose wisely what variant you are planning to buy because reports revealed that the will release three different variations.

According to a new report from Chinese media outlet Economic Daily, the three variants will be released later this year or in the third quarter of 2014. The first version comes with a 1.6-inch screen, while the other two will feature 1.8-inch displays.

One of these 1.8-inch models will also feature a sapphire crystal display, the same material Apple is rumored to use for the iPhone 6's display.

Since sapphire crystal is expensive to manufacture in large quantities, it would presumably be much easier to create a 1.8-inch screen for the iWatch than a 4.7-inch screen for the iPhone 6. Sapphire crystal is already used for some luxury watch faces.

This isn't the first time that anybody has heard Apple planning to release different versions of the iWatch. In June 2014, The Wall Street Journal reported that the there is a possibility that iWatch could come in three different sizes. From Economic Daily's report, it's unclear if the actual watch band will be available in different sizes or if it's just the screen that varies.

Economic Daily's report also conflicts with previous rumors we've heard about the iWatch's screen size. A report from Reuters previously suggested the iWatch would have a 2.5-inch rectangular screen.
