I like watches myself (have quite a few, have collected american pocket watches in the past). I don't think this has a lot to do with the demographics of the viewers as much as it has to do with Apple not changing much about the watch. If this actually is a complete re-design, I view this as Apple Watch 1.0 v2. They haven't meaningfully expanded what the watch does or introduced new ideas around how it could be used.

The Series 2 is a better Apple Watch, but it's not much more than the Apple Watch was. I don't see many reasons for someone who passed on the first to buy the second. I think that's the source of the reaction here.
