Swatch CEO Nick Hayek Jr dismissed the Apple Watch as an ‘interesting toy’ in a recent interview with Swiss newspaper Tages-Anzeiger, reports The Guardian. Hayek Jr told the paper that, “The Apple watch is an interesting toy, but not a revolution.” He continues, “These devices, which all eat so much power that they last no longer than 24 hours without needing to be plugged in. In addition, the user immediately loses control of their data. I personally don’t want my blood pressure and blood sugar values stored in the cloud, or on servers in Silicon Valley.”Swatch is planning to release its own smartwatches soon that will start at 150 Swiss frances, will be water resistant, and have a battery life that lasts around nine months.
