If you want a watch, you should buy a good Swiss watch, you don't need this cheap crap on your hand, unless you are 15 years old (which btw is a market on its own).

I don't know why people invest in these things. I don't know where this vision is coming from, but this is not a tech breakthrough. These things will not be used in the long run, period.

Do you think that Eric Migicovsky wears a freaking pebble watch? I hope not. I hope he can afford a cheap Rolex or a little more expansive IWC.

There should be a disclaimer, product for 5-16, 16-18 if your mom still changes your diapers, or for true tech lovers.

Thanks, I will definitely check it out.
This is a pretty shallow, close minded perspective.

A watch on a man's hand is like a sexy pair of shoes or a purse on a woman, and it is not my place or time to teach you that. Once you grow older you will understand it.

And like i said, some people will definitely go for it.
