If you were an invester or board member, you wouldn't care about the patent infringement - Apple has historically done this and you wouldn't invest in the first place if you weren't okay with it. This one's just getting more eyeballs and actual repurcussions but they've paid off and bought out multiple companies over stuff like this.

Not about infringement as much as getting caught and not being able to sell the watches that were surely expensive to develop.
