What a refreshing subject/article. I personaly stopped wearing a watch in the early 80's, mearly due to the aspect that time/clocks are all around accept when walking from A to B and knowing the time during a walk is not helpful in many ways. My last watch was apocket watch as I had few issues with wrist watch's as well. Then mobiles came along, they have a clock/alarm, even early ones and those in many ways surplanted the watch as a functional tool, though not for the fashion sence which is seperate. Now were getting to the stage were technology has got to the position were watch's can and will make a comeback as a form factor though not as a primary watch/timepeace, but more as a external display. Want to hand a number of a contact to a friend, then pulling up that contact on a watch is alot easier. They also enable health monitoring avenues and in that as a form factor they will make a comeback for the non-fashion crowds. So are they dead, no they have not died, nor will they as a fashion/dress jewelry aspect. But with main consumer use I feel the time is approaching were they will make a comeback as a form factor. ALso remember watch's have had wonderous things like self winding/charging thru kinetic enrgy for a while now. If your phone could do that for it's needs then life would be alot more fun. Now thats not the case and wont for a while yet, but to compliment power ussage and as a 2nd display/health monitoring oh and telling the time, they will only gain more traction.
