From it's earliest of humble beginnings,to now being nothing out of the ordinary, wearable technology has had its trials and tribulations. From the early days of the original Motorola Bluetooth Headset, to the infamous "Ankle Bracelets" that troublemakers were forced to wear.

Now with the imminent launch of Apple Watch wearable Tech takes on the fashion world. So what are we dealing with?
