Calling time out on my Apple Watch

New York

I WANTED it to work. I wanted to fall in love, like so many of my friends. "It takes a while," they said. "Don't expect a coup de foudre. Let it build over time." So I did. I knew other people looked at what I had with envy. But a month-and-a-half after we first got together, I have decided it is time to - well, call time.

I am breaking up with my Apple Watch. The relationship was, despite all expectations, not what I needed. All the focus on San Francisco and Apple's next big innovation this week (streaming!) made me realise that it was not playing my tune.
