It’s difficult to create an elegant smart watch. There’s the screen, which, without graphics dancing across it, is a black void and then there’s the unavoidable battery that fattens up what might otherwise be a svelte metallic frame.

As a watch collector, I’m accurately aware of these limitations, so when I look at the nearly square Apple Watch or Samsung’s thick and large Galaxy Watch, I try to cut them some slack.
