Why does the “traditional” watch world hate Apple Watches?

Serious question. If you peruse some of the places / forums where watch enthusiasts frequent (r/Watches, WatchUSeek forums, Watch Crunch, YouTube, etc), you’ll find some very strong negative opinions about the Apple Watch: - “Its not even a watch, it’s a wrist computer” - “No way I’m going to worry about charging yet another thing” - “you have a phone, why would you want something that does the same things but worse?” - “I can’t pass it on to my kids” (how is that even part of the definition of a watch?) - “It’s an ugly, soulless piece of tech” (not even a real argument because it’s subjective)

Im not here to make the case for the Apple Watch, though personally I find it to be a genius invention which allows me to be at an arm’s length (no pun intended) from my devices but still plugged into the Apple ecosystem. What I am curious about is why is there such strong animosity? I don’t think Apple Watch lovers denigrate traditional watches like that.

I asked this in r/Watches and got downvoted to oblivion. Just goes to show you, I suppose
