I've been determined not to buy Apple Watch for several reasons, mainly cost, justification and first generation. But on vacation we dropped into an Apple Store. The display cabinet is magnificent. A genius sidled up and let me play with a 42 mm black on black Sport. Really got me thinking. Didn't help that my amused wife basically said she wouldn't oppose it. But I managed to back down.
Got a tip for us?

I'd almost recommend getting it, and tryin got for 14 day, if it's not for you , Return it.
It's not a need, but if you're even moderately into gadgets, it's one of the coolest I've bought since the original iPhone. For a version 1.0, the hardware is spot-on, software will take a bit of refinement, but it's suitable enough. I sincerely believe it's $400 well spent if you love your iPhone, but I admire your resolve. My advice, exit this forum if you want to not end up with one (when I wanted to propose to my now-wife, I hung around lots of diamond forums).
I wasn't going to get one so soon...
until I went to my appointment. Walked out with a pre-order.

You said you backed down. So we don't understand my you started a thread for this other to to relay a short story that really wasn't very interesting. Many people have decided the watch isn't for them. And it certainly isn't for everyone. It sounds like you really don't need or want it.
