I think they've been a sleeper hit since Day 1. $6B in sales the first year is huge for any watch or consumer product, despite being just a trickle next to iPhones and iPads.
At one point I thought they'd peter out, but this year my 80 year old mother bought one (and loves it) and my sister is looking to dump her 3rd Fitbit for an Apple Watch, it made me start to wonder if they were starting to reach the average consumer.

Same here. And haven't seen android on a wrist for many months.

#5Personal anecdote: I bought an Apple Watch early and didn't really know what to do with it. It wasn't until I fell off my bike and broke it did I realize how much more exercise I was getting with it. I bought another one soon after.

#6I got the Series 2 in January. I love it, but can also see why it might be more of a niche product. $400 for a watch isn't exactly cheap and I know many people who opt for their smartphone over any kind of watch.

It's not out of the ordinary to spend $400 on something like a Seiko or Citizen watch - and those are just "dumb" watches

That doesn't prove much. Most of them are collecting dust.

#10I hope this motivates Android Wear manufacturers to make a decent watch. Right now they are all pretty mediocre. You either get a fat sport watch with LTE or a less fat watch with very few compelling features.
I just want NFC (for Android Pay), heart rate monitor, no-LTE (in exchange for being thinner) in a classic, non-sport style.
