Smart Watches v The Establishment.

I think they're different things which both have their place, some people obviously buy luxury watches as pieces of jewelery and for fashion, not just for the craftsmanship and design but I can see them still doing so, the Apple Watch is more for your gadget lover than your fashion conscious consumer imo, although I'm sure it will sell very well.
I hope you're right. At this stage I am certainly not getting rid of the types of watch I have now, but I will probably buy one of the Apples because I want to understand the core functionality and see how useful it is.I am very interested to see the impact of this thing. I would never have predicted the iPod, iPad world where these things became so ubiquitous.

I think it will sell well and chances are it will become a common sight, look at iPads when and just before they came out, a tablet was a completely foreign concept and now most people swear by them.I am very interested to see the impact of this thing.

For me personally the Apple Watch doesn't appeal as all of the things it offers I can do on my phone, and I would rather have a nice mechanical watch on my wrist, sadly I've been without one for a while but currently hunting for a VC Overseas .
Thought I would resurrect this thread in light of today's launch:

I'm not sure whether there are any sensors built in, but a week's wear between charges, water resistance and remote control of your media via the watch are all positives...
There are some Genta design nods there, as well as some X-33 style looks and the price isn't outrageous!

See now that's heading in the right direction. What they really need to do is create a module that you can switch between bodies. So one day I have something that looks like a sub, the next an IWC, etc etc. Shame the screen res is so poor. http://www.gilt.com/sale/men/mm/michael-bastian-x-...
