I was a skeptic for a while, but bought an S3 when it came out and have really enjoyed it. Reasons I see myself wearing it every day for the foreseeable future:
-Mainly, it's a very handy, very low-distraction way of getting notifications. The vibration is a lot more noticeable/unmistakable than a phone through a pair of pants, so I find myself doing far less habitual checking of my phone (or watch, for that matter). You can really tune out of your phone/social media, but respond to an urgent text/call.
-IMHO, at work, checking my wrist is a much better "look" than scrolling through my phone notifications (and, tbh, often getting distracted and checking in on news).
-Having weather info available at a glance is surprisingly nice. I live in Michigan, so it's often consequential information - having it at the flip of a wrist instead of even opening an app or asking Siri is, believe it or not, a really nice benefit.
-Having a watchface with a rotating collection of Live Photos is a great way of showing off my kids to people without handing them my full photo collection.
