Who claims it’s terrible at that function of being a watch. No one that i know. . . and mine works great as a time piece. Quite accurate and easily read.
*****************
For the (under) 2 days that it runs without needing servicing (recharging)I’m sure that it is adequate but what if you get all the way to day 3... it shut down over a day earlier... My Citizen EcoDrive watch has gone 5+ years without needing any maintenance and will run until it eventually dies of old age without ever needing a battery.

You have forgotten your own initial admonition on these very pages to never think of the iWatch as a watch because it SUCKS as a watch... it is merely an iPhone bluetooth extension.

You need to put down the electronic equivalent of crack and take a weekend off with no way for others to reach into and control your life , turn off the Dick Tracy gadgetry ... Be a MAN ,, not someone’s errand boy with an GSM leash waiting to be yanked. You should get a girlfriend... or a hobby...

And all your Citizen EcoDrive watch does is tell time. Nothing more. It is not even as accurate as the Apple Watch over a years time. Your definition of "servicing" is another "straw man" argument of your own invention. Sorry I don't need to argue that point because I don't run my watch down to nothing. No one does.

I have never cited that. What I have stated is that it is MORE than a watch. Your claim that I have makes you again a liar, putting words into my mouth I have never said. . . another favorite tactic of the anti-Apple hate Brigade propagandists and their lies.

Next you take the other typical tack of an ad hominem attack, implying that I am the same as a drug addict with your next denigration of my life and also slurring my maturity level. You are being an asshat as usual, Neidermeyer, slinging insults and innuendo. Doing so shows you have no facts to back your ignorance. Personal attack is the refuge of the man with no facts to back him up. You use them freely and often.
