I see your point, but I'm not sure I agree. (I'm only 28 myself)
Sure, a lot of young folks wear a smart watch and only that, but most of those are the same folks that would have purchased, say a $100 Citizen, or even a $600 Modavo from Macys, not the same folks who would purchase a Rolex, Omega, Tag, Exc.
I own an Apple Watch as well myself, but I don't view it the same as my Sub or Tag Carrera at all, it's an extension of my phone when wearing one of my other watches isn't practical (working out, doing work outside, Exc).
Just food for thought.
