>What is the allure of these things?

I like having something well made, looks nice, and will last on the order of decades. I also like not having something attached to my wrist that tries to grab my attention for every email, text, call, etc. that I get.

> They keep worse time that an ntp synced phone

There is nothing in my life that requires me to be in sync to a precision beyond +/- 30 seconds.

> have no internet connectivity and few features

Some folks (like myself) view that as a feature, not a bug. I actually like walking around without something constantly on my person that is always internet connected.
