Apple Watch band gives you worst of both worlds, adds traditional analog watch

The traditional, analog watch industry has been struggling to figure out how to deal with the rise of the smartwatch, led by the Apple Watch. 

Now one German company has presented what it thinks is one possible answer: a watch band that holds both your Apple Watch and an analog watch. 

Called the Dual Strap System, Sinn's watch band uses four shortened straps to put one of its own classic timepieces on one side of your wrist and the Apple Watch on the other side. 

Is this an absolutely silly idea? Of course it is. Will some Apple Watch users buy it? Based on the reception past wild Apple Watch band accessories have received, yes, probably. 

Offered in both 38mm and 42mm sizes, it can also be transformed into a single watch band that just holds your analog Sinn watch.

An argument could be made that someone would use this strap to enjoy the refined look of analog timepieces without losing touch with the world of wearable notifications. But to most people, this will probably just look like you're someone who can't make up their damn mind. 

According to a report from ABlogToWatch, the band costs $120 when purchased with a Sinn watch and $210 when sold separately. A bargain, if you don't really like or need money.
