It’s finally here, the Apple Watch… as expected, it has outdone all other “smart watches” currently available (not saying much considering the age of the genre), clearly has some cool tricks up its sleeve and seemingly some impressive detailing and materiality.

And, I figured it could be fun to open up a conversation with you, our readers about it… so, what does everyone think? Are you impressed by the design and functionality? Are watches under $1k in trouble? Will all of us watch-nerds soon be double-wristing, a mechanical on one, an Apple Watch on the other?

Discuss!
