This is a relatively small problem - that sure is one ugly red knob on the side. I don't think it jives with the design at all and looks cartoonish. Otherwise, seems like a decent upgrade

A very important part of the value of this watch - like all expensive watches - is social signalling.

The red crown signals you have the new watch.

Don't get me wrong: it's a cool gadget and the LTE and music streaming makes it quite desirable. But this is also a fashion accessory, unapologetically.
