Swatch boss to Apple: One more thing, your smartwatch is just an ‘interesting toy’
Watchmaker Swatch has taken a swipe at[挥臂重击;抨击] Apple’s smartwatch – days after it trademarked[商标;标志] Apple founder Steve Jobs’ “one more thing” catchphrase[标语，警句]. In what appears to be the latest attempt to rile[激怒；搅浑；惹怒] the technology giant, Swatch chief executive Nick Hayek dismissed[开除，解散] the newly released gizmo[小发明] as an “interesting toy”. He added it was a strategic decision[战略决策] by the Swiss watchmaker to avoid creating its own smartwatch, highlighting the fact that Apple’s gadget needed to be charged once a day as one of the reasons why. He said: “The Apple Watch is an interesting toy, but not a revolution. We, however, sell a fun product that is fun and not to do everything and to revolutionize.

As well as being the catchphrase of TV detective Columbo, the line was also regularly used by Apple founder Steve Jobs. He used the phrase at Apple launch events to unveil an unexpected new product - just as the audience thought they had seen everything.
