1. Close-up of an Apple Watch at night
We like this one the most even though all the mockups in this collection are GREAT. It’s easy-to-use and extremely photorealistic.
The entire process of improving takes just a few clicks to complete. However, you only achieve the speediest mockup realization if you already have the design ready.
You can also spice things up with text and the company logo.
So simple. So powerful.

I really like seeing models on mockups with tattoos, it’s becoming very everyday-ish. (I know this may be a bit off-topic, but needed to put it out.)
And here’s a fantastic example of a woman with an inked arm checking what’s hot on her Apple Watch.
What’s hot? Your application design, of course!

A black Apple Watch on a wooden surface is what’s up with this mockup.

SO. GOOD.

MORE INFO / DOWNLOADHow To Easily Create An Apple Watch Mockup
Before I share this simple step-by-step tutorial on creating a realistic Apple Watch mockup presentation, you need to know that experience is unnecessary.
I’ll show you how to do it with an online mockup generator (Placeit), which requires only some clicking to make it happen.
Here we go!
5 Steps to create an apple watch/smartwatch mockup:
- Step 1: Visit Placeit, where you can find all the different Apple Watch templates.
- Step 2: Click the image you like to open and then hit the “insert image” button.
- Step 3: A popup window will open after you upload your image to resize and reposition it so it meets your needs. Hint: the live preview comes in extra handy.
- Step 4: With your design on the mockup, you can now perform other customization tweaks to adjust the default look with the necessary branding. Changing the background, adding graphics, and even creating a text overlay is possible.
- Step 5: When satisfied with your creation, click download and start sharing it with the world.
And that’s how simple designing an Apple Watch mockup is.
But even if you use a free PSD file, you’ll also have a blast making things happen.
Open Photoshop and import the template you dig. Then click the smart object layer to drag-n-drop your image, and the “hard” work is done.
You can now navigate other layers to modify the mockup however you want before you click save and download.
That’s it!
