Can i Sync the Watch to my Mac Mini

[asimmd]

I don't have an iPhone so i was wondering if i could sync the Watch to my Mac Mini?

I presume this is purely to get the results of the health apps.

With no USB, ports the only way would be wifi. I suspect that the syncing will be just with iCloud

All communication and data will probably be through the iPhone only.

...Apple Watch also features Wi-Fi 802.11b/g and Bluetooth 4.0 to pair seamlessly with your iPhone....

Only with WiFi you can pair your devices,or using iCloud like with all devices.

Thanks for the replies,

Does this mean i need to get an iPhone,and if so which one will work?

The WiFi/BT paring between the aWatch and iPhone will probably be a lot like the (mysterious) way AirPlay works. Kind of a WiFi and BT personal 'hotspot' between the 2. You will probably not be able to 'see' the aWatch in any other way except through an iPhone.
