I had essentially the same thought upon seeing it pictured. Nonetheless, I think as a direction the technology and form factor will have to head for smartwatches to displace traditional wristwatches, it's directionally correct. Need it be thinner, less angular, less "clunky" looking? I think, "yes," but those are minor challenges and nowhere near insurmountable.
I think once the form factor and some data input/device interaction enhancements happen, the cuff style device has legitimate potential to overtake wristwatches. It provides space comparable to smartphones and to the extent that it's as equally usable as a smartphone, it could well be a considerably more compelling use of one's wrist "real estate" than is a conventional watch.
All the best.
