I like mine since I don't have to carry my heart rate monitor (HRM) around if I want to exercise. Some are good at sleep tracking too. It's a good pedometer and I can go on a run w/o my phone and the built in GPS keeps track of things. If my phone battery dies, I can still communicate with people (although many apps on the Apple Watch are badly designed to require a phone connection rather than just data). The notifications are nice if I'm on the subway and don't want to pull my phone out of my pocket to see what's up. It doesn't take long to charge the watch, whenever I take a shower I put it to charge and it's full battery by the time I'm back at my desk. I also like turning off alarms by using the watch rather than pulling out my phone.
