Hmmm, not sure about this product. I just can’t see the benefit of it over wearing the watch on your wrist. At least on the wrist I can feel the alerts. If this is on the handlebars of my bike I would have to keep on looking at it all the time or pressing the screen to see my messages after it had turned off. I’ll pass.
The concept may look practical, but clearly the designer of this mount have never field-tested the usability of an Apple Watch mounted on a steering wheel of a car….
How do we know? It was the first thing we tried…with some Sugru. Completely useless way to have the Watch mounted due to the constant motion of DRIVING. Also, it can be a dangerous impulse to want to keep the steering wheel steady so the Watch can be read (you DON’T want to know why we know that)!
I’m thinking that if you have to mount your watch on something besides your wrist, you might as well mount your phone…
