Re:Despite sizable sales, Apple Watch has challenges to over... by tbyehl on Tuesday April 26, 2016 @12:03AM (#11569344)
I can't believe Apple launched a smart watch without solving the problem of making them fashionable. The higher end bands are nice but they're still attached to something that screams gadget nerd. Maybe I'm a watch snob, but the nicest watches I've ever bought are Invicta...

To me the killer feature of a smart watch is just not missing calls and notifications. Woot had a good deal on refurb Pebble Time Rounds a couple weeks ago so I bought one of those and a $20 aftermarket metal band. Solved my pain point. Didn't cost more than I'd spend on a regular watch. I wouldn't quite call it fashionable but it is discrete.
