Don't think we have wasted time Ken
I enjoyed the various posts here. Sharing passion and opinions are really what makes PuristSPro cool. Cheers Robin
Brilliant indeed Ken
For the brand and Richemont's financial statements For me and my passion (ex passion) in a Villeret movements, this is a joke Cheers Robin
I don't know why this matter is even discussed here...
Only because it looks like a watch and you strap it on the wrist doesn\'t mean it is one... Discussing this on the base that the world is changing and the wearable technologies are amongst us blah blah blah, goes exactly against the spirit of why we are a...
I like the idea... Shall we compare pictures of different bushes Mo...?
Cheer up... soon be Basel and get to see some real watches... or especially for you we could look at the new TagH Connected 45, that has a optional mechanical movement too Cheers Andrew
I wonder why the Industry tries to beat the Apple Watch
Apple has the most fun smart watch after all and it is no competition at all for the Swiss Watch industry. To me the Swiss Industry puts themselves to shame by releasing this kind of products.

Appreciate your thoughts...
... and I wholeheartedly agree that this place is perfect to discuss different opinions! Still think it would have been a smarter smartwatchthing with dials of the lower end products ;-) Cheers Henrik
Economically it makes sense for mechanical watch manufacturers to get into the..
Smart watch business or lose market share in the under~1K market. I should not comment further.
So do I. I am at a loss, as PuristS use desktop, laptops, and smartphone to go about their horological business..
But a smartwatch seems in some circles to be forbidden, even as a concept. These are extension of the smartphones we use.
A beautiful Watch indeed...
I\'m not sure if I\'ll spend all that money in a smart watch, I just don\'t think so but it\'s a beautiful watch with no doubt. All the best. Alex.
