I don't already own a watch, so my perspective might be a little bit different. The entire concept of a smart watch is pretty exciting for all the reasons the various new entrants like
Kreyos tout, but I am really into it for the following reasons:
1. I'm worried about using my smart phone in crowded areas where it could be stolen right out of my hands while I'm not paying attention. Seems much more difficult to take a watch that's strapped to my wrist.
2. I've dropped my phone in the toilet while checking it. My bad, but there will be no more of that if I have a smart watch.
3. It's much more discreet to take a call on my wrist while driving than it is to hold the phone to my ear. I don't drive with earbuds in and I certainly don't wear those cyborg bluetooth ear pieces.
4. Recall, I don't have a watch, so I try to use the stop watch function on my smart phone for timing myself in exercises. This is lame. I dropped my phone in the gravel yesterday.
5. I have missed many calls when I forget to turn on the ringer - or even with the ringer on. Having vibration on my wrist means I won't be running around trying to find my phone, or missing calls.
On the topic of style, I'm not going to wear my smart watch to the opera or a black tie dinner. I wouldn't worry about it clashing with my wardrobe. I'd wear it in the car, at sporting events, while exercising, or around town.
The Omate looks cool, but I'm worried about having another separate phone contract. Seems like I need something that synchs with and extends my existing mobile platform
