It may be ugly, but it kind of shows where we’re all headed. This watch reacts to your phone like a Bluetooth headset. It vibrates on calls, tells you who’s calling, and allows you to set phone configurations from your wrist. It’s also huge.

Thank you for reading this WristWatchReview post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
WristWatchReview is one of the few remaining truly independent watch news outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent watch sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis. We don't play the games the other sites play and we've paid for it when it comes to ad revenue.
We would love for you to support us on Patreon and every little bit helps. Thank you.

That watch looks freakin ginormus. I wonder if it will catch on or not. I doubt that would be accepted in the fashion world, but who knows
Much to big in this iteration, but the idea of a bluetooth watch display is long overdue. Something that can link to mp3 players, phones, PDAs, or even a laptop shoved into your backpack, would finally deliver the promises of the bulky, battery-sucking devices from the past.
Let’s hope the inevitable failure of this device doesn’t disuade them from trying again.
The only ugly about it is that it’s still unavailable thanks to yer ugly comments.
