It's very easy to criticize other people for having a different priority, such as aesthetics over price/value, from yourself. After all, particular interests often sound ridiculous if you don't share them. This is in everything from having a favorite precious metal to a favorite web development framework.
However, if you're set on making such a criticism here, the least you can do is spell Yves Saint Laurent's name correctly.

- sho_hn 12y agoI suppose it does seem rather easy to criticize people who make that priority unnecessarily expensive watches, though. I can appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into them and will agree it makes for a better watch, but nonetheless one far past the cut-off for diminishing returns. Honestly, I feel like much of the attention paid to premium smartwatches is rooted in insecurity. Many a blog post about one is a fashion item as much as the watch is; it's meant to communicate that the author can appreciate fine things and is definitely not one of those pragmatic-boring "well actually" types that might write something like the first paragraph. Food for thought, if you found yourself thinking as much while reading it.
