I remember all the hand wringing in the watch industry , 50 years ago, back in the era of the $20.00 Texas Instruments LED digital. This was short lived. Then, the $2.95 LCD digital you could buy when you bought a tank of gas. Short lived. We are going through a similar phenomenon again. People who buy stuff like the Smart watch have the attention span of a gnat. They’ll be off on another tangent in a while, and we’ll have to endure this all over again. We’ll eventually be wading around up to our ankles in discarded, broken, unrepairable novelty watches, but the watches we are collecting today, will not be in the landfill, but in someone’s collection, somewhere. Not to worry.
