I keep most of my notifications off, but I hate my phone making sound and I'm not a fan of having to take it out of my pocket to check stuff.
With a smart watch I can just get a gentle vibration on my wrist when I get a text or something, and often tap it to send a reply.
It's also a pedometer and if I'm walking I can use it to get pedestrian navigation directions without having to pull my phone out.
