The Agent SmartWatch Moves The Category Forward
While there is still some question as to how successful the smartwatch segment will be, that hasn't stopped brands (mostly newer) from pushing innovation to get new models out on the market. Today's example has technical chops paired with design from a watch brand.The watch, of course, is the Agent Smartwatch by Secret Labs. Interestingly, this company isn't a startup - they're an established company, albeit in the arena of fabricated electronics (including an arduino alternative). What this means for us is that they know how to put the internals of the watch together in a way that will give the watch power and flexibility, as well as some pretty nice battery life. Additionally, since they've already invested their main business in Microsoft-based development tools, that means they'll have an app development suite that will be familiar to a broad range of programmers. This could very well lead to a good variety of apps for use with the watch.Slapping together circuits and building deve

What is the ACTUAL power reserve of your Speedy Pro?
I am sorry if this was already covered but my search did not come up with anything on this topic.I know that the 1861/63 movement is rated at 48hrs power reserve but mine seems to have far less. I am just wondering how yours REALLY get with a full wind?

BLNR Blues?
Hi,Just recently bought a GMT BLNR when I stopped by my AD right before Christmas. It wasn't on my radar since I have the GMT LN but sorta got caught up in the hype (lack of SS watches) and decided to purchase it thinking it will grow on me. Well since then it's been sitting in the box in the safe with all the stickers still on. Thinking of selling it but still thinking it might grow on me one day and will regret selling it. Please talk some sense into me!!!Tom
