Apple Watch Edition is a luxury wrist watch. Apple’s ambitions in this arena, I am convinced, are almost boundless. They’re not entering the market against Rolex, Omega, and the rest of the Swiss luxury watch establishment with disruptive prices. They’re entering the market against those companies going head-to-head on pricing, with disruptive (they think) features.

3D Touch is basically haptic feedback and pressure sensitive touch screens, COMBINED. The regular vibration motor can basically do everything the Taptic Engine can that doesn't involve really forceful single taps. I honestly can't tell a difference between the iPhone 5s vibration and iPhone 6s Plus vibration on iOS 9.3 unless I'm using 3D Touch actions.

It's not specifically listed on tech specs for the iPhone 6s / 6s Plus anymore, so I can't really be sure whether or not the Taptic is going to be in the SE or not. HOWEVER, considering what the iPhone SE seems to be representing, a smaller footprint, overall cheaper cost, iPhone 6s, without some of the bells and whistles, it wouldn't make any sense to me to include some whiz-bang vibration motor in it.
