So apple chose bluetooth 4.0 in the watch, wonder why they didn't choose 4.1? Any ideas? Cost? size of the chip needed? To keep it in line with the iPhone? Thoughts

If I had to guess, I wold say cost versus benefit. When there is not enough benefit, the cost is too much.

That's what I was thinking. With it being such a small device, I figured they aren't making those chips in the quantities they are to fit in phones so price is probably much higher.
