A lot of people view tech as magic and are wow'd by it. But many people that work in tech, based on their experience working with it, view it more as an eldritch horror. There's something comforting about a mechanical watch that people have been making by hand for hundreds of years.

My friend, that’s entirely the point :)

And since there are more non-tech-savvy people than tech-savvy people, the market for smartwatches is booming.
