6 TOP OF THE GLASS SMARTWATCHES

6 Top of the Glass Smartwatches


Smart wearable technology has been one of the most talked about topics in the watch world over the past few months. In January 2015, Montblanc will be the first luxury brand to combine wearable technology with fine watchmaking in the centuries old Swiss horological tradition, and Withings has just released the cheapest Smartwatch yet. So, with this in mind, we take a look at some of the best Smartwatches on the market today.

Montblanc Timewalker Urban Speed e-Strap 

Montblanc introduces the TimeWalker Urban Speed e-Strap, marrying a highly functional e-Strap with contemporary TimeWalker timepieces. The e-Strap is an interchangeable strap, with an integrated technology device that offers an activity tracker, smart notifications, remote controls and Find-Me functions. It connects, via Bluetooth Low Energy, to selected Android and iOS smartphones. 
For the first time, an owner will be able to wear a mechanical timepiece with highly useful digital functionality. Smart notifications, signalled by vibrations provide an alert of incoming communication without the need to look at your smartphone. 
It enables the preview of e-mails by topic and sender, read text messages, see incoming calls and status updates of social media feeds or reminders of important upcoming meetings, all on the wrist. The activity tracker is a simple tool to monitor the wearer´s physical activity over time and keep track of his personal daily goals.
