Why a Pocket Watch is a Good Thing

Do I want a pocket watch? No. Will I buy this and wear it as a pocket watch? No.

But I commend Swatch on taking a BIG swing at something new.

The safest, easiest route would be to do “another collab” and release a ceramic version with “Swatch” on the dial.

This is so out of left-field, it could be a category-defining move. A “Labubu” moment that could change the way people interact with timepieces for a while.

Or it could be a miss.

But I’m impressed they are taking such a big, uncertain swing. It’s creative and different, even if it’s not for me.

Royal Pop is a necklace 😒

From Swatch’s official Instagram, “Two Swiss icons come together to reimagine a complete new way to wear time and bring future generations to the world of mechanical watches.”

Uh hard pass.

If you have used this program at all, you were met multiple times the past couple months with FORCED updates... And when you update, you lose features you have already BEEN paying for. Features that were in the subscription you've already paid for? Now they are gated behind a NEW higher paid tier.

At this point, I refuse to take part and am unsubscribing. What alternatives do you suggest? I need auto-orient and good support editing.
