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.
