A smart watch selection journey -- As apple fan, why not getting Apple watch?

Quick Smart watch comparative reasons below:

Classic Pebble - My favourite meet the purpose watch - reading notification is a breeze.

I have 2 classic pebble watches. Both e-ink screen spoiled within 6 months duration. Random scratch line which renders the watch not usable.

The shift from pebble app to pebble time app sometime early 2016 really screwed up everything. Every time the app forces me to update and it always ended up a factory reset of the watch and phone setting. Best part, pebble classic enjoy no new features.

It came into my radar... then off away from my list.
The watch OS has high requirement on iOS. Watch OS 2 requires iOS9 and above. Must charge with Apple exclusive charger cost around RM175.
I am on iPhone 6 Plus iOS 8.4. I am not going to upgrade -- in the past, Three iPhone i have upgraded, battery life & phone speed screwed up.
And, its not compatible with Android. It means if any case, your phone upgrade will have to be Apple iPhone. Else, your Apple watch will be more stupid and classic watch.
Of all features highlighted, i still just want notifications.

Creating their Tizen OS for watch which i think equivalent to Window phone OS -- bad app compatibility

Considering i only want the notification on the go and nice watch faces, I have chosen Ticwatch 1st gen (without Apple MFI) = RM800+ include shipment to Malaysia.

Below RM1,000 which fits the product nature -- a gadget that likely only have 1 year lifespan.
