Question for the audience: If I'm not a hypochondriac, why would I want an apple watch?

If you're a serious runner/swimmer/cyclist/surfer who likes to track workouts and already invested in the Apple ecosystem for messaging/music/etc and like the idea of leaving your phone at home.

It's not very good for tracking swimming stats. Honestly, I'm still looking for something that will track laps accurately and without a ton of fuss.

Yeah, back when I used to swim a lot I could never find anything that was any good at tracking swim distance either in a pool or open water.

I just got a pair of swim goggles with a tracker. About to test them at the pool. I don't have high hopes for them but at least they were purpose built with swimmers in mind.
