I just bought a $6 smartwatch on AliExpress. (Which dollars you may ask? CA$? AU$? US$? Does it matter?)

It actually works, for a given value of “works.” It keeps time. It connects to my cell phone randomly and inconsistently. It displays numbers that are theoretically associated with my well-being if not reality. It has a variety of clock faces that are all equally difficult to parse.

Do I miss my $6? I haven’t decided yet. It’s possible I have derived $6 worth of entertainment fiddling with it. Like a Scoville fidget spinner.
