Stephen Colbert couldn’t contain his fervor for Apple’s much-anticipated product announcements on Tuesday, especially its newest innovation: the Apple Watch.

“Of course the iPhone 6 wasn’t the big surprise. Many people predicted six would come after five,” Colbert said during Tuesday’s show.

After watching Apple CEO Tim Cook make the announcement, Colbert stood, threw his arms up, and raucously cheered, ceremoniously smashing his analog watch as he celebrated.

“What?!” Colbert exclaimed. “What?! What does it do?! Give it to me! I gotta have the Apple watch. It’s finally cool to wear a calculator watch! Who’s the nerd now, Ben McGooken?!”

After announcing that, “tragically,” the Apple watch wouldn’t be available until 2015, he unveiled the “Wrist Pad.”
