Ask HN: Is it worth buying existing smartwatches? Or these will eventually fade?
With the slew of smart watches (that exactly look similar to each other) like FOSSIL, MOTO360, SAMSUNG GEAR, and APPLE Watch, why do you guys think I should stop wearing my traditional watch collection and start wearing a smartwatch? Am I alone who is thinking this way or everyone has accepted the smartwatch revolution? if not, why not, if yes why yes?

I like mine (first-gen LG G Watch).
If you're thinking about buying a new one right now though, I would wait. A number of models are supposedly coming out in September/October; most of the ones currently on the market will be fairly obsolete then. Plus, it's not really a "must have" right now; it's nice, I find it's great to get notifications on my wrist, but it's still very much an early-adopter toy.

If you aren't developing for it, I say keep the Rolex.
