Given that my hiking watch costs over $200, $350 isn't a bad price point. These aren't in competition with your basic $20 Timex, you know. As far as ugly, well, if you don't like it, don't buy it. I'm going to be interested to see exactly what these puppies can do and why I would want to buy one.
$350 watch that you will feel the need to replace after 1-2 years when the newer version is out. Luxury watches are like jewelry you expect them to last for 5-10 years hence the higher price. Paying similar amount for a smart watch is a bit much. Under $100 smartwatch I wont mind even if have to update it every 2 years.
I am specially sceptical of the Apple watch with all the articles with how apple wanted to put a lot more inside it but the tech wasn't there yet. If I was ever going to buy an apple watch I would advise to wait for ver 2.
