One thing that just occurred to me... its pretty hard to lose a watch when you are wearing it. I'm always nervous I'm going to loose a credit card when I have to pull a card out of my wallet. Never have but still worry. Another consideration - Also you don't wear your credit card on your wrist (or bundles of money either) It increases you risk level when you are in less than friendly neighborhoods. Or even certain friendly ones either. Kind of like in Sim City and the inhabitants have those floating arrows above their heads. I wouldn't want one that advertises "here comes money!" Just a view.

I've lost plenty of credit cards in my day and never really gave it any thought. There's no better sense of security than knowing you have zero-liability for fraudulent charges. That said, it's annoying to have to get a card out of my wallet and sign for it for a $3 cup of coffee. I guess that's why the starbucks mobile payment appeals to me I suppose. Less fuss. I'm motivated a lot more by convenience than security, I suppose.

Never have but still worry So what's worse - getting something out of your pocket and unknowingly dropping a credit card (Call the company, many cards have zero liability) Or Getting something out of your pocket and unknowingly dropping your lunch money (cold hard cash) That money talks I'll not deny. I heard it once It said "goodbye!"
