Wristwatches have been around for many decades now and there are niche segments for Sports, Youth, Luxury watches etc. But this market did not witness the unprecidented boom seen in the Mobile/Smartphone space as traditionally a watch is a watch!
All that is expcted to change with wearable gadgets as arch rivals Apple and Samsung trying to out smart each other in this space.
A recent report says that consumers expect the wristwatch to function like a phone - read email, text messages, Making/recieving calls etc.
Honestly, I cannot imagine all these multi functions on a wristwtach. But interfacing with the connected devices universe that we live-in ( phones/car infotainment system, Home entertainment etc), may result in Smart Watches, a new segment!!
