Would love to know what you guys think and your reasoning for it. I'm starting to see a lot of Apple Watches/Fitbits/Galaxy Watches in my area compared to more traditional timepieces.

Smartwatch.

I did have a regular watch back in highschool, and all it gave was the time and date. Now that I can look at my phone or my computer screen, it would be of little benefit.

My smartwatch comes with a step counter, which gives a little goal for every day. Plus it shows notifications from my phone. It makes it so much more comfortable that I don't have to pull my phone out for every single notification. Just having a look at my watch, and I know if it's important or not.
