Movado Launches Three New Smartwatches
Two Swiss watch companies threw their hats into the smartwatch ring right before the holiday shopping season. One is TAG Heuer, which introduced its Connected Watch, developed in cooperation with Intel Corp. and Google and powered by Android Wear technology (we covered it here). The other company is Movado, which launched three smartwatches: two in its Swiss-made collection and one in its Bold line of less expensive, non-Swiss casual watches.Movado is manufacturing its new smartwatches in collaboration with Fullpower Technologies, for the Movado Swiss pieces, and with HP, for the Bold smartwatches.The Swiss-made watches are called Movado Motion, and are powered by Fullpower's MotionX-365 platform. (It is the same platform used by Fre?de?rique Constant and Alpina brands, which both unveiled smartwatches last year.) There are two versions: the Museum Sport, for men, and the Bellina, for women.

100% LED Concept Watch Will Be Available For Purchase Soon
A while ago this interesting LED watch was being displayed as a concept in Japan. I talked about it here in my excitement. Myself, and many others got really excited at the concept - though it had a few questionable characteristics that seemed to keep it from being practical. The big issue being power consumption, that I did of course mention. 100% even did exactly what I suggested they do, and that is display the time "on demand."

Prices will likely be $400 and under given its electronic

16710 BLRO + 97200 Glidelock Bracelet = Perfection
So I was fortunate enough to source a 97200 ( Ceramic Sub ) Bracelet. I am honestly not a fan of the newer ceramic Sub and GMT models and don't really like the fat lugs. But the new Sub bracelet is just pure perfection in my opinion. Now I have placed the glidelock bracelet on my 16710 this morning and it's amazing. It's an absolute perfect fit and feels great on the wrist. I will also install this bracelet on my 16610 when I decide to switch watches. Cheers
