Or perhaps can cause less of an interruption compared to what a similar alert would cause if it had come in on a phone.

Nice try. That's not what I was saying at all. I am saying that it is my opinion that the recent slew of advertisements, as well as the introduction of new watch models, is an attempt at trying to improve sales. This is based on my personal observations. you may disagree, and that's fine, but their pushing of the Watch seems a bit more frantic than other products have been in my opinion.
It does baffle me that apparently advertising is now a sign of a failed product. I guess I shouldn't be surprised by anything when it comes to Watch.
god awful ugly commercials, especially the exercising one that came on. they dont scream Apple brand or quality.
How so? I've seen way more iPhone commercials on TV than Watch. Also, Apple went several months with zero Watch advertising. It only makes sense as we get closer to the holidays that they would ramp that up. Honestly in the past week or so I've seen more Google and Microsoft ads on TV than anything from Apple.
Any of our younger members (or more hip members) know the artist in the 'style' ad? My daughter loves the tune and my musical tastes skews decidedly older.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I'm amazed at how off-putting I find these ads.
I like how short they are and how they focus on single features, but the music and vacuous environments leave me nonplussed.

I'm really liking these ads. It's stylish, upbeat and very creative, yet realistic cos that's what I do with my watch.
I'd like to see them show someone controlling their lights (colors and brightness) and AirPlay speaker volume with it like I do at home... so convenient.

The song is Gold by Kiiara. I've listened over and over. That track is available on Apple Music, but three other excellent tracks by her are also available on SoundCloud. Give them a listen!
I'm a fanboy, but I never have seen so **** ads... I won't move along...
Like Tesla's CEO said: the third gen Apple Watch will be better to use.
These ads are horrible. I can't believe they actually put their names on this. The slow decline is painful to watch.
using an apple watch since launch day.
I rarely ever use it. Only to tell the time. Never gonna get another apple watch in the future.
I miss Steve Jobs so badly.

The subliminal "Money Shot" (and title frame) in Skate is just a rip off of:
Nothing really new, just recycled from the Standard Def days

LOL, it's so good to see them still stuck in their hates. Is it kinda tiring to post the same thing over and over? We don't want to read hundred posts of 'I don't like Apple Watch'. Believe me, it's kinda annoying.
Will check her out on SoundCloud. Thanks for the tip.
edit: Tennessee is pretty darn nice. Little too harsh for my kid, but nice nonetheless. Here's to her success.
Yup, that was RZA. Too cool.
Thanks to you both; from me and my daughter. Not bad at all, and I say that without my normal qualifier of, "for today's music". Hopefully this ad does for her what Microsoft did for Alec Clare.

Those are not commercials, they are showing why the Apple Watch is useless. Buying ice cream? The one with the kiss I didn't get it THE SCREEN WAS TOO SMAL. And dancing?
There is not a thing that makes me buy an Apple Watch, I am trying but everything with it is just wrong. The watch is ugly, screen too small, needs an iPhone, needs to be recharged, it is super expensive. I mean, you buy stuff to resolve something in your life, the Apple Watch does not resolve anything, it is maintenance.

Do you want a bigger screen.... On your wrist ??? Really!?
Honestly it's about as tiring and annoying seeing the same type of posts complaining about someone not liking something. Just as tiring and annoying seeing posts like mine complaining about the complainers. It's a wash, rinse, repeat.
People have opinions. Not all are the same. People like some stuff and don't like other stuff. It's not an all or nothing proposition.
