Time and Tech: Where Smartwatches and Swiss Timepieces Meet

Smartwatches have been out for almost a decade now and they have had a less than luxury look and feel—until now. Three Swiss watchmakers have combined tech and tradition to produce smart and stylish timepieces.
These watches perform like a smartwatch, with the looks of a luxury Swiss timepiece. They communicate wirelessly with your mobile device providing you with real time activity reports on steps taken per day, calories burnt and distance covered. The only question is which watch is right for you. Here is what I love about each of these watches:
Montblanc Timewalker Urban Speed UTC E-Strap
Montblanc has taken a new approach to the smartwatch with their versatile E-Strap. Rather than having the technology on the face of the watch for the world to see, the preview screen is on the bottom of the watchstrap.
The preview screen allows you to discreetly read text messages, view who is calling, get meeting notifications, preview your email and even check social media notifications.
Constantly losing your phone, or your watch? The Find-Me feature allows you to locate your phone from your watch or your watch from your phone within 100ft.
Already have a watch you love? Make any watch a smartwatch, the Montblanc E-Strap is also sold separately and fits on various other watch heads with lug space sizes 22mm and 20mm wide.
The strap uses a low frequency Bluetooth connection to communicate with the Montblanc app on your mobile device and holds a 5-day charge.
