Telegraph: WHEN you can get the latest mobile phone for free if you sign up to a £30 a month contract, who would spend £3,000 on a new handset?
If that question even occurs to you, the chances are you’re not in the market for a Vertu Ascent or a Tag Heuer Meridiist. For these are the mobile devices that are part of the same landscape as £20,000 watches.
Tag Heuer’s chairman Jean-Claude Biver announced that the company is ramping up weekly production of their Carrera Connected Smart Watch from 1,200 to 2,000 pieces.
Ask someone you know to name watchmakers and you’ll likely hear a few familiar brands: Rolex, Timex, Swatch, and others. But ask them to name some smartwatch makers and you’ll hear totally different names (provided they come up with any): Apple, Motorola, LG, Samsung, Pebble, and so forth.
Tag Heuer's chief executive has said his company "cannot lose the wrist" and this is why they have launched their first smartwatch. Jean-Claude Biver said the "next generation" wanted this kind of wearable technology.
so stupid -_-/// who would even buy this.
Exactly, A Super Expensive Fugly Phone.
