Roger Federer is one of the most famous tennis players, and in an interview given today, he was also asked what he thinks about Apple Watch. The question comes after Apple used the image of a model preparing for a marathon to promote its product, so he couldn't avoid it. Although he is sponsored by Rolex, Roger Federer claims that he is interested in trying Apple Watch after the official launch, but he says that he does not use smartwatches, so he is not confident in fact that you will use the product for long periods of time.
I haven't felt it or tried it but I'm actually curious to see how it is, and if it's going to revolutionize watches or not. I doubt it's going to have a big impact on the Swiss watch industry.
Moreover, Roger Federer does not believe that the Apple Watch will in any way affect the Swiss watch manufacturers and this is normal since he is sponsored by one of the most important luxury watch manufacturers. Even so, the fact that Roger Federer is interested in testing Apple Watch represents a clear message to fans, and not only that, that the product is worth at least trying in a store. If Apple manages to convince stars like this to try and use the Apple Watch, then it will be successful in generating serious sales for the product.
