Apple Watch is expected to cost anything between $350 and $5,000 and if you are not confident enough to drop this much amount on a watch, how about trying one before buying?

Lumoid - a company that rents drones, wearables and other gadgets - is planning to add Apple Watch in the collection that will be available for users to rent.

Lumoid will have send customers a set of five different smartwatches to try out for a week for $20. At the end of the week, the users can either choose to buy or send them all back. Incase user chooses to keep the one they want, $20 rental fee will be applied to the cost of that watch.

People interested in Apple Watch will be able to sign up later this week to try out the smartwatch once it's available.

The Lumoid website is yet to be updated to include the Apple Watch rental waiting list, but Mac Observer reported that it should be coming later this week.

The San Francisco-based start-up, which is partly backed by Y-Combinator, also plans to include other new smart watches, as well, including Motorola's Moto 360, reports NBC News.
