Is it a necessity to have a smartwatch ? does it worth the bang for the buck

evolution in tech did bring to us some marvelous things, i remember the old days of cellphones of monochrome screen the prices sky high the consoles 8bit 16bit etc ,what now we have for one that comes from this era is simply great. who could imagine in the era of first playstation or sega saturn that nowdays graphics would look cooler in a handheld,to set it simply none.
In tech there is always the need to evolve and present new things,one of those things is the smartwatch thingy, at first i looked at it with a wow factor ,but being skeptical the least i wanted to see this tech evolving ,to my disappointment a smart watch doesn't have even the decency to work for at least a week without charging ,most companies entering the competition present to us the consumer the need of a thing that is working entirely with a smartphone and need to be charged every couple of days 2-3 the best 1 day the worst case scenario.
I am not a critic but seeing companies presenting to me watches in the same price range as smartphones does not make me to wish to buy them,they try to eat out hard earned money without giving to me at least a feature that i would use for a time, it is a joke to buy a smart watch only to pair it with your phone and to charge it every day. Marketing show off the cool features of these things but present to us a watch of cheap make and esthetically poor design.
My father used to collect watches of various companies etc and guess what he was always buying not only what it could afford but something that in even these days does look like a jewel,with plastic smartwatches and no standby a traditional collector would not even glance at them for a second.
for a tech enthusiastic they are a hype tech with no real usefulness ,to conclude my opinion to the companies is come around when you put price in normal tags and when you have them working as they should.
