I don't get it

OK call me stupid - but I just don't get it.

I wear a watch, but it's not digital, as it's job is to tell the time and occasionally what date it is when writing cheques - why would I want a watch to do anything else?

I already have 2x phones that I have to carry (1x work and then my personal) and am trying to avoid having to check those more than absolutely blooming necessary. Both phones can make noise and/or vibrate to notify me of messages/calendar appointments/phone calls.

Health monitoring I'm not interested in - I consider most forms of exercise to be evil incarnate having heard FAR too many times "did you hear about Bob dropping down dead of a heart attack? The strangest thing, he was always out jogging".

Seriously what am I missing, or is it purely about spending far more money than I have?
