Apparently, labor shortages were a huge factor in the delay of the Apple Watch. Because of the Lunar New Year, Chinese manufacturers had labor shortages which cause huge delays in manufacturing the Apple Watch. However, this should be alleviated as the Lunar New Year is over.
"Because of labor shortages during the Lunar New Year holidays, Quanta was forced to borrow manpower from other manufacturers and was only able to deliver limited shipments in the first quarter. However, Quanta already has sufficient capacity to manufacture all the orders and should see a giant contribution from its wearable device business in the second quarter."
- Quanta Vice Chairman, CC Leung
