Hi, I had apple watch for two weeks but then returned it.

I am thinking about going back having few concerns.

I like notifications and stuff, but not really using any fittness functions.

What I was worried about most was imaging how stupid I look when I have it on wrist and more when I was playing with watch in public. Smartwatches are not very spread in my country.

Maybe I am insecure but I really feel weird looking with doing something on watch.

How I can make finall decesion if to buy one or no, when I already returned one piece.

I'm not sure how anyone can help you with this. If you feel stupid using it, then you aren't going to use it. Not sure why you feel stupid about it. Since you already owned it and tried it, you have the most information you are going to get.
 
Sounds like you are wanting us to convince you to buy one. Only you can make that decession.

Based on what you already stated I would say it's not for you.

Actually you are having a problem which can't be solved by others. If you feel stupid then you shouldn't go for any smart watch. But I don't understand why you feel shy. Smart watches are latest fashion.

Maybe it is because smartwatches are something new and I felt same about using tablets but then as it was more common that feeling faded away.
 
Don't mind other people. Because people honestly don't care. The things you think people notice they actually don't. Everyone is so caught up in doing their own thing that worrying about someone else wearing a smart watch is the least important thing for them. And even if they have an opinion you will not hear it and they won't dwell on it for more than a second.

I'm the only one in my circle of friends that has an Apple Watch and no one gives a damn. And if that's your only problem then buy it and just don't give a crap about other people.

I'm into fitness and even before I bought the Apple Watch I knew I would never use it for fitness. I believe people that are serious about fitness wouldn't rely on just the Apple Watch, much better fitness devices available. If it motivates people to exercise I'm all for the Apple Watch Fitness features and I'm sure people are getting use and enjoyment out of the fitness features.

Enjoy Exercising and the Apple Watch for all the other non fitness features it offers :)

Go back and buy it.........life is too short to worry about what others say :)
