The device depicted in the images does not appeal me, it’s seems massive and old fashioned. I don’t think a smartwatch should have this look. We do not need a touch screen enabled watch, we are talking here about a ‘smart’ watch.

The best use is typically just getting notifications. So you can see SMSes, IMs, whatnot. The fact is that 90% of the time it's more important to have read a message than to reply to it. It also saves you the trouble of having to remember to read something when you notice you've gotten a message but you can't check it just now 'cause you are busy with something else. That alone is a huge use case. Sure, it doesn't apply to everyone, but it applies to enough people that it justifies the product.
And ultimately it is just a product not a way of life being imposed on humanity. If it doesn't work for you then don't use it. If you don't like sailing you don't have to buy a sail boat, but you also don't have to decry their existence either.
