Would you wear the Iwatch if someone gave it to you for free?

[PaperstreetWinston]

Imagine defending yourself everytime someone looks at you and you have to say "it was a gift"

[MrBottomTooth]

I don't know how anyone wears watches. Uncomfortable as fuck.

[RyuLion]

I don't care about wearing ANY watches..I don't NEED one.

[SBJ]

nope i'd sell it on ebay to the isheople that would pay triple the price that apple sells them for.

I'll stick to my Tag watch.

Watch is an accessory, a "jewelry" of a kind. It is, subjectively, the only jewelry that fits a man.

Same here.

To make it more interested OP should have added the condition that you could not sell it. So either wear it or give it away for free.

ill buy you one if you promise to walk south side chicago at nite screaming racial slurs

[cool1g]

i got a free Samsung Gear 2 ($299 cost).... wore it a few times and looks okay. didn't find the time savings looking at messages on my wrist to be a big deal. Samsung is on their own OS not android as well. Overall not worth the $299.

I suppose i should check to see if there any new good apps lol.

Battery life for me was really good - like 5 days b/w recharges.

[pornmasta]

no thanks

[slapass]

I haven't worn a watch in years. I lkike the idea of the fitness date but other then that what is the point?

[mineistaken]

I don't like saying racial slurs. I would prefer to go to some libtard convention and shout - stop applying double standards. Would you buy me Iwatch for that?

[PornDiscounts-V]

No point.

[SilentKnight]

No, for two reasons.

1. I don't like the styling.
2. I don't own an iPhone - and I hear most of the useful iWatch functions are reliant on linking up to an iPhone.

[bronco67]

I'd say this thread could honestly be used as a barometer for how successful this product will be.

You can put me on the list of people who could give a fuck about wearing a watch. This isn't 1998.

[Nicky]

I wear my current watch as a jewelry. Wouldn't wear an Iwatch though

[PaperstreetWinston]

I'm so proud to be part of this community

[SmutHammer]

I only wear a watch when I'm going somewhere I should be dressed up for. you would be surprised how different you will be treated at stores or when buying cars etc.

but no, I would not wear an iwatch or any other digital brand.

[shoot twice]

Apps don't impress me.... so I'd sell it to someone on ebay.

Other than that I have a 25 year old Bulova. It's never lost time and it almost literally runs forever.

[aka123]

Sure, although I have no fucking idea what it is like and who makes it and so on, but sure. At least for some time.

I wear a watch. It is much better than a phone especially in my outdoor leisures. And it looks cool when being around people; then it is jewelry.

[freecartoonporn]

sure, why not .....

[CDSmith]

Methinks thou doth protest too much. I suspect that while the dozens of denials get posted in this and other threads many gfy'ers will be pre-ordering the, what's it called? "iWatch" or "Applewatch"? Whatever, it's the new latest greatest thing coming out, thus the techno drones must have it at all costs.

After all, it's so much more than just a watch. :D

[Phoenix]

Who needs a watch anymore? i have a phone.
I guess they are trying to move the phone into the watch.
Maybe it works...i think handheld is better for games on the phone. watching videos etc.

[Look Chang]

No thanks, I still have some neurons.

[2MuchMark]

Watches are cool. First, a nice watch just looks good. Next, they are a nice throwback to older technology and innovation. There's something cool to be said about mechanical time pieces still being used in a digital age.

As for the Apple Watch, I will defiantly go check them out when they are on the shelves at the nearby Apple store. The health monitoring applications similar to the Nike Fuel Band are pretty interesting. And I bet that the function that lets other people feel your heart beat will have some fun spin offs as well.

I'm really surprised at all the negative comments about the Apple watch on GFY. How can you make up your minds about something you haven't even seen or tried yet? It's not just a watch. It's a computer that you wear. Give it a chance and let's see where this goes.

Want some immediate adult applications? How about:

- Sending subtle vibrations to your customers when your favourite chat model is logging on?
- Measuring FAPS per minute?
- Detecting the heart rate of customers on your website?
- Video chatting with porn stars on your watch?
- Watch porn?
- Buying products and subscriptions right from your watch? Tap your watch for instant top-ups?
- Letting customers feel the heart beats of chat models in real time? Vice versa?

Everyone knows that the adult industry has been partly responsible for some big leaps in technology since 1995. If you close your mind off to other potential technologies, especially without even seeing an apple watch, or becoming a programmer for one, or even trying to imagine the possibilities, you should fire yourself. Others will do it instead of you, and you'll end up losing your customers.

Because most people do not like Apple products. Other than that for the masses that still wear a watch it's for an accent to your clothing and to show prestige.

But just the same I've got to say that someone has got to be a serious loser if they need a "health app" After all this isn't exactly rocket science!

Or is this thing going to sound an alarm the moment someone tries to eat one too many big macs?
Or is it going to take control of someone's legs and make them go jogging?
Or is it some sort of life support system for the the 10 pack a day smokers?

Please tell me what I'm missing with regards to the advantages of this watch.

[michael.kickass]

Yeah, I would.

[ilnjscb]

The first year any apple product is released it is for unctuous dorks to wear while they work the bugs out. The "mi vida se define por el hecho de que yo use los productos de Apple y yo , literalmente, no tengo otro valor propio" peoples.

That said, I do possess multiple copies of iphone and iPad, but one release back.

[Lace]

Nope. Never. I refuse to support anything to do with Apple. I have never purchased any of their products. I have received three iPod's as gifts, but they just collect dust. Hell, I don't even know where they are anymore. I'll let the Apple sheep go over-spend on shitty products.

[CAHEK]

No thanks, will not wear this

[mineistaken]

I will stick with my Rolex which is all I need to tell me the time and date. No battery required either!

Besides, i enjoy having a good looking watch anyway...

I wear my watch everyday.

Accessory. Statement piece. Fine piece of engineering.

I'll keep the apps on my phone.

It is night. You are behind enemy lines, ready to radio intel about the enemy to blast it to pieces. You look if it is the time to make contact: you reach for your iPhone with extra illumination; you are little worried, how much will the enemy charge for the data transfer? You never know.

With watch; you make very subtle move to look time from your watch.

Works also if you are James Bond.

[seeandsee]

i would, send me one

[Wendy-Etology]

I dont own a watch, if i did i would probably always forget to put it on

[J. Falcon]

Agree 100%

When I wore a watch I used to take it off whenever I ate, because I found it extremely uncomfortable. Eventually I stopped wearing the all together.

The watch plays continuous music and any song you like if you are jogging; but it only
plays a loop of Bob Dylan's part in "We are the world" otherwise.

[Tam]

Hell yeah I'd wear one if someone gave it to me - I have always worn a watch and I hate carrying anything in my hands so having all I need on my wrist where I don't have to hold it in my hands would be great -

I'd use it for meds I have been put on to remind me to take them - I have been handed a lot more and it's hard keeping what goes down my throat at what time - so yeah I'd use it for things like that and to TELL THE TIME - lol

But as for going out and spending that kind of money to sound an alarm or tell me the time, I don't see that happening really anytime soon - I have better and more important things to do with my money - but given it was free - I'd wear the hell out of it - I am a gadget freak. lol

[Bladewire]

I would wear the Iwatch if it was given to me for free. I would photograph it. I would blog about it. I would even talk about it. But only in the rain.

I don't know if "most" people like Apple or not, but there's a lot who do, and don't forget that Apple is now the most profitable company in the world, beating Exxon.

Fair enough, but thats what I said. Watches can be cool. Of course less people wear watches today, but there are some who really appreciate nice watches, for all kinds of reasons, including yours.

I love my Apple Mac's and iPhone. I don't love Apple TV - its ok but using an iPhone as its remote sucks. And while it streams well most of the time it still tends to freeze and reboot sometimes. Other than these I don't own or have interest in any other Apple products.

No not at all - you should really try it. I bought myself a Nike Fuelband and a few months later, bought one for my Niece. Essentially it tracks your movements and helps you to get into shape by giving you lots of stats about how you exercise. It's not an Apple product but it lets me review my data on my iPhone.

We also have a digital scale that tracks weight gain and loss, BMI and other stuff.

The Apple Watch will do all of that plus have apps for blood pressure, etc.

What could be wrong with knowing how well your body is doing today? In a group that is so statistics-centric as GFY Adult webmasters, I would have thought you would be excited about this.

I would hope not, but then again if it knows your heart rate, wouldn't you like to know if yours is beating dangerously fast after eating yet another Big Mac?

I have no idea. I didn't buy this watch and don't plan to for a year or so. All I'm saying is that technology is awesome. This is the kind of tech that kids in the 70's and 80's used to dream about.

Remember Star Trek : The Next Generation? The Apple watch is part tri-corder, part communications device, and part of a million of other things. It's a computer you can wear on your wrist that has Infra-red sensors, a gryroscope, a touch-screen video window, a microphone (and speakers?), communicates with other computers, and and and, on and on and on.

[nico-t]

if you want to look like an idiot, wear an i watch.

[PaperstreetWinston]

I personally just fear that I wouldnt be able to pull it off

[Theo]

I can't see me wearing one

[Doug of Montreal]

I haven't worn a watch in close to 20 years. I don't like the look of the apple watch. The battery life is disgusting--especially for something that's to be monitoring your health at all times.

Having said that... I'll be in line to order come April 10th. I'm betting it will change the wearables landscape in a big way, even with all its flaws. :0)

[Rochard]

I have the first generation Samsung Gear watch.

It's a watch.

Yeah, I can answer calls on it, listen to music on it, even preview text message on it, but that's about it. It's just an extension of your cell phone. They have newer models out that have their own cell phone connection, but.... But then all you have is a much smaller cell phone that is on your wrist.

I wore it to Europe last September, and have the dual time zones on the main screen was handy so I could track time back home. I wear my watch mostly at night when I am sleeping, so if i wake up in the middle of the night it's easy for me to figure out what time it is and I can also shut off my alarm on my cell phone from my wrist.

I don't think this will be a huge thing.

[Rochard]

Oh, I should also add that I do wear a watch on a daily basis. I like the Skagen watches - nice and thin. I don't like big huge watches.
