Very interesting. Looks like consumers in the United States are more likely to purchase a mechanical rather than a smartwatch.

Another interesting point is that design and complications are the most important factors for new offerings? Kind of makes me wonder why so many startups are going in the minimalist direction as opposed to more complications.
