dadudemon: Thank you for sharing that video! It's too bad, I have the cheapest iPhone.
I actually want a tiny phone with a keypad. Some are more comfortable than others, and some stores don't sell the same ones.
I've mostly had Blackberry with a keypad. I just changed to iPhone for Instagram and Vine, mainly, and I was able to vote on Rising Star. In the end, I may own 2 phones.
I thought I had a 5S, but maybe it's a 4S. Maybe, I don't have the cheapest one or they don't sell it here.
I'm debating what to do. iPhone is nice with YouTube compared to my Blackberry I dropped. It's not good for typing, though, so much.. We still have to pay the iPhone off, but the new one I want has a smaller price, too.

I will try using it for all the things that it is advertised. In particular the health and fitness tracking, as well as notifications, will be something I think I'll like.
I'll try whatever apps will come out as well of course, there should be fun stuff.
I'll also use it as a fashionable item I'll like to wear
I don't yet know what use cases I will find, but I think it will be worth it to me just to try out this really new thing.
This is a good reason and probably the only pragmatic/logical reason to have such a thing (I'm making the assumption that a person has a smartphone...which I think is a requirement for this thing). If a person has the disposable income, why not? Sure, there are other tools out there that will accomplish a similar task but for far less money but the convenience of having that information on a touch-interface, right on the device, would make it more convenient. If the watch was $50, I would consider it just for this aspect, alone.

Yeah, an iPhone is required with the Apple Watch. I think down to the iPhone 5C.
I wanted to get something for my wrist for a while, and have been looking at a lot of stuff. Had Apple not come out with the Apple Watch this year, I would probably have gotten the Withings Activité. But the Apple watch seems better to me now.
Yes, I agree with you: there's no reason it cannot function as something fashionable with added conveniences, too. There is definitely nothing wrong with buying this for fashion, alone. I wear two bracelets and both were not cheap. So should I knock someone for wearing something that they feel is fashionable? Maybe they think I'm a dumbass for spending that much money on useless pieces of jewelry because at least their "jewelry" has functions?
So I may think the Apple Watch is a fairly redundant and useless device, I do see multiple avenues of utility and will not knock another person's choice in purchasing it. In fact, I am still curious as to how this thing develops because, first and foremost, I'm a techie who has a child-like curiosity for anything new like this.

The last thing is also why I think I'd like to get one. I was not interested in the first iPhone (I did however get the first Android phone ever), and I wasn't financially able to get the first iPad, but now I should be able to afford this, and I'd like the excitement of seeing it develop from the start.
Because of my work, I can also at least partly justify new tech purchases to keep up to date and research new avenues of use cases for our customers.
