It took more almost 50 years before the first digital watch was introduced in 1972.
People used to wear only analog watches until then.
Wrist watches became a necessity and you could see this wearable technology on almost every wrist during the late 90's and early 2000's.
Their use reduced during the later half of first decade of 2000.

The reason people were less interested in wrist watches was because of the introduction of smart phones (phones in particular).
Most of the people no longer needed a watch which was capable of only showing time because mobiles phones were capable of showing time also.

Things really took a turn when smart watches were introduced.
Smart watch is a form of wearable computer which is capable of almost doing all the tasks a computer can do albeit being on the smaller side in size.
The early smart watches were able to do basic tasks such as computing, digital time telling, gameplay etc.
However with the advancements in smart watch technology they are now capable of doing every task a smart phone can do.
A lot of smart phone manufacturing companies have also started to make smart watches and they have tasted huge success so far.
A lot of smart watches can also act as fit bits providing you with health benefits at the same time.
