Maybe the watch will beep and guide you to the nearest Apple store to get your upper-arm blood-pressure reading done.

The older your devices are, the higher your blood pressure will be as you'll be seeing all the nice new phones and laptops on display. The recommendation to lower blood pressure will be an Apple Store employee telling you to buy new stuff.

If you're American, this is probably cheaper than getting proper medical advice 😁
 
Thinking about it (I know it's difficult), I get it now, I think. Transient blood pressure readings have little meaning for most people (although there are several notable exceptions, obviously), so I guess you could make this work.

But then the entire question is: does it work? If it does, then they are going to sell even more of these. Also, demographics may shift more towards the aging masses.
