Yes, this is beautiful and impressive and we're all going to buy one. It still looks to have tons of compromises that are silly. In what world does a circular graph show progress to 100 like this:

@willimholte Yeah, that bugged me too. 270 degrees /= 100%. Best looking fitness tracker out there, and gives me hope for more. I sorta remember a smart watch recently that had very subtle markers for phone, text and emails when synced to your phone, but wasn't a fitness tracker. I'm sure we'll see a multitude soon.

@SacBookReviewer Agreed all around. The graph thing is not a big deal, especially if it's just art for the site.

Beautiful approach to melding technology with classic style, but that's got to be the most ridiculous voice-over dialogue I've ever heard in a video.
Andrew Pyott
@rynbtmn no doubt about it! Had the same thought :)
Ross Rojek
Yes, not every tech thing has to look like a tech thing. Ah, though in reading the fine print, you have to change the leather band for a plastic one during sports. Wondered how it was going to hold up in water. Having to swap the band one or more times a day, really not the best solution, even if it's quick release.

Reminds me a lot of this watch by Tsovet http://www.tsovet.com/shop/cn110... @SacBookReviewer good spot, that's kind of a buzzkill but not a total dealbreaker. Finally a thing I can wear on my wrist that looks good and tracks steps!
Ross Rojek
@ZackShapiro Me too most likely. Just realizing it was something else to carry and remember was a speedbump along my "hey that's so cool" moment. But started looking at the fine print when they were bragging about the calf's leather strap and I'm thinking about swimming with it.

Beautiful, wondering if I should switch my Shine with this.
Zack Shapiro
@benln Do you like the Shine?
Jonno Riekwel
Oh yeah, so getting this :D

Wearable tech that doesn't scream wearable tech. Now this, this is sexy.
Andrew Pyott
Gorgeus! Completely agree with @mjchamplin, if this smartwatch thing is going to take off, it definitely needs to not look like 'wearable tech'. I can't do Glass, but an iWatch like this? I can dig!
Jason Dainter
Beautiful. Want.

Holy Moly!!! It tracks everything: walk, swim, sleep, and it has a vibration alarm(I missed this from the very first failed Jawbone UP). No recharging for a year. Looks amazing. Can this get any better?
