Fossil Unveils Trio Of New Hybrid Smartwatches

Fossil might be a bit late to the smartwatch game, but boy they have certainly made up for lost time. The company has unveiled quite a few smartwatches to date, and it looks like they do not appear to be slowing down. Just recently the company took the wraps off three new hybrid smarwatches.

These smartwatches come in the form of Diesel, Kate Spade, and Emporio Armani. For the most part and as you can see in the image above, the watches resemble your standard and more traditional watches. However this is why they are known as hybrids because while they look like a regular watch on the surface, under the hood there are certain pieces of technology that makes them “smarter”.

For the most part the watches will all come with similar functions. Each watch has its own specific app where users can choose what kind of notifications will be allowed in. They also feature the use of coin-cell batteries which means that unlike regular smartwatches, they will last you a good 6 months before needing a recharge.

Pricing of the Diesel and Emporio Armani watches are unknown at this point, but the Kate Spade version will be priced starting at $250 and will be available via katespade.com towards the end of December 2016 or early 2017.
