And yet teens collect and play vinyl records, which their parents gave up when they were teens. Given this, the fact that their parents gave it up as teens makes no sense at all as a reason for teens to reject the watch.
Besides which...this isn't their parent's watch, is it? I don't rightly recall any parent who stopped wearing a watch as a teen giving up a device they could use to make phone calls, use to pay for groceries, record their workout at the gym, etc. All those ex-parental-watches could do was tell them the time.

Nope. Watch price will go down, especially the sports watch. That's a given. But in regards to the phone--given that it did stick around even with hardly anyone buying it, given that it did turn into a mega-success once the price started going down and was (and is) bought and used by teens now...do we still want to predict that the watch won't ever sell to teens and will just vanish into being just another smartwatch?
It might. But I wouldn't bet the farm on that. Especially as the first watches, unlike the first iPhones is selling quite well.
