When I think of a watch, the idea of taking a photo with one isn't the first thing that pops into my mind. Back in the day, watches were for telling time, telephones were for making calls, and cameras were for taking photos. Then came the 2000s and things turned all topsy-turvy!

These days our phones include incredibly adept cameras. And now, thanks to Apple, we can pair our Watch with our phone to take pictures remotely. I always knew the future would be cool.
