I love having a smart watch.
Put on water for coffee or tea “Set a timer for 4 minutes” “Why is my watch buzzing? Oh yeah!” Don’t let it all boil away any more
tbf a dumb watch can usually do this too
I don't love talking to my electronics, but when it works, "siri two minutes" is dramatically more convenient than whatever bullshit you'd do with tiny buttons on a Casio whatever in the 80s. I do agree with the sentiment, but ... we're pretty spoiled.
I love my G-Shock watch. Practically invincible, can drop it from a building or go swimming with it, charges by solar panels and never dies, syncs with atomic clock towers by radio waves (no need for NTP!). I can set alarms, timers, stopwatches across timezones. It has dates stored locally until 2099 and it just cost $100. Smart watches may be more convenient for you, but imo the Casio is a better value and won't ever need to be replaced within 5 years because it doesn't get software updates
