The daily running cost of a smartwatch is virtually zero, restricted to negligible electricity for charging. The true cost of ownership is in the ecosystem: buying replacement bands, screen protectors, and eventually replacing the battery or entire device after several years. Cellular models incur a monthly carrier fee.
