I had a Motorola one about 7 or 8 years ago. I was working at a grocery store at the time and we weren't allowed to take our phones out on the job, so I could use it to see and reply to important texts from my parents. I also drove my parents' car to and from that job. Their car at the time had no phone integration at all. Just a Bluetooth to 3.5mm headphone jack dongle plugged into the AUX input. So when driving that car, I used the watch as a makeshift hands-free system. Not actually hands free mind, but I could use it to skip songs and pause without taking my eyes off the road while listening to Spotify.
