This is absolutely beautiful and very well done.

@stefan I had a watch like that as a teenager. It was fine, but it wasn’t wonderful. If they could have done what a modern watch does back then, they would have. I don’t know why you guys romanticize this stuff.

@causticmsngo

Did you even bother to read the thing? It's not about the watch.

@mischa Yes, I read it. It seems to romanticize old tech, like the pictured watch, as some pinacle of design because it was simpler in some ways.

It was simpler because it was constrained by what was possible at the time.

If your criticism is of surveillance or rentier capitalism, that is something I agree with, though Apple may not be the best example.
