> What would you use this watch for?
* Because its battery lasts 30 days you can use as an alarm clock that doesn't wake your wife. Unlike the Apple watch, you don't need to leave it charging overnight and you can configure it to emit light only when you press a button.
* Because you're wearing it at night and can control its light you can use it as a flashlight if you need to go to bathroom.
* Because its screen is reflexive you can store barcodes from the library and gym cards on the watch and use it to authenticate on those places.
* Reading and replying messages while driving, control music from your phone and making phone calls while driving and not getting a ticket for distracted driving.
And then there are all the other health related things: heart rate monitor, step counter that you can also use to measure swimming strokes, etc

Now I am late. > Because you're wearing it at night and can control its light That could potentially be useful, but I am used to grabbing my phone. > Because its screen is reflexive you can store barcodes from the library and gym cards on the watch and use it to authenticate on those places. I used phone for that without issue. > Reading and replying messages while driving, control music from your phone and making phone calls while driving and not getting a ticket for distracted driving. I don't do these things. I have a playlist that I never skip or put on certain radio station if I feel adventurous. I don't change anything when I drive. I don't take calls or do messages. I sometimes take a glance at missed calls when stopped and take a break if something is important. I use step counter on my phone. I think what could sell it to me is heart rate monitor. Having this data over 30 days sounds tempting. I also like the design, could work as an accessory.
