Before you get too excited, these aren’t working watches, they are just little models. I was ready to buy some as a flex but was disheartened to find they were mostly props.

Kids, watches were devices that boomers, like Walter White, used to tell time before iphones.

I know you’re joking, but once I accidentally broke a 200 something day streak of activity on my Apple Watch, I chucked it and went back to (modest) collection of real watches.

No one needs yet another notification device, and the activity tracking stuff isn’t as valuable as people make it out to be. Just break a sweat everyday and you’re good.

(Yes, the health monitoring stuff is wonderful)

I couldn't help but search... there are working ring-watches out there, apparently. Most of them look a bit uncomfortable to wear day to day.
