Me, but I bought my wife an Apple Watch this past Christmas because:

- She used to love her FitBit, and these have similar health/tracking features
- Someone showed me the remote picture taking feature, which I thought we could use while on vacation just the two of us and not need to find/bother a stranger to handle one of our iPhones to snap (several, as is obligatory with my wife) photos of us

Turns out, it's a very fun snorkeling/diving companion (shows depth, length of each dive, water temp, etc.).

I'm surprised how much she loves it. And we've yet to use it to take a photo of us (remotely controlling the phone camera).
