I guess it depends on how productive the smart watches become. Maybe 10-15 years ago, you could still find politicians openly state that they do not use computers, that they never read emails but only get them printed out by their secretaries, that they do not own or use a mobile phone... Nowadays, that is not very common anymore, and I don't believe it is the generational change alone, I believe it is due to a change of the cultural attitude, not engaging with technology like email or mobile phones makes you seem backwards and even a bit incompetent. Maybe "smart watch" vs "dumb watch" will turn out the same? But I guess nothing precludes the Swiss watchmakers from producing expensive smart watches, that will be both functional and a fashion statement.
