    If you add a strap to it, it will be smartwatch. So there’s a need and a niche, just not for one more way to do the same stuff

      That’s not a bad idea, but why not just integrate that functionality into a smartwatch?

        This is exactly what I meant: they’re selling a watch without a strap, and saying it’s something new

        How are you going to sell that? It already exists, so it won’t draw venture capital that you can siphon off until the whole thing collapses.
