My guess is that Amazon was/is not planning any OEM smart watches. They did skimp on some other hardware items. The System on the Chip (SOC) was a 2013 era item as well.
The Fire Phone and the Fire HDX 8.9 (2013) use the same SOC, RAM and have similar PPIs. The Fire Phone is a mini Fire HDX, if you will.
