I’ve come to think of this as less of a “smartwatch” and more of a wise one. It’s a timepiece in the literal sense: it shows you the time, and how you’re spending it. Nothing more.
The main reason people use watches in the first place is to glance at where they are in their day and relate it to what they have coming up. Calendar Watch has an e-ink screen under the watch face that depicts items on your schedule as darkened blocks.
It stays in sync with your phone, automatically updates timezones when you travel, and its battery lasts weeks, not hours. The app lets you select which calendars to pull information from, which to ignore, whether or not to show all day events, and so on. There’s a vibration alert that you can toggle on, but I like to keep it off; this feels more like “Watch Plus” than “Phone Minus” so I’d rather not have notifications on it.
Above all else: it’s a good watch. Solidly made, durable, waterproof, and stylish.
