Sleek design and high-tech function make this smartwatch a modern classic
Nothing is quite so debonair as a decorated wrist, but high tech timepieces that make you look like an extra from Blade Runner don’t cut it. The Moto 360, however, mixes the modern smartwatch with a classical timepiece.
Moto’s new 360 collection is customisable, so users can switch between leather and metal straps, choosing colours and materials. This watch is a Swiss Army knife of gadgets, using a live dial interface for easy access. Respond to messages with your voice. Start your car with the MyFord mobile app, like David Hasselhoff in Knight Rider, and lock doors with the Kevo app. Lazy bastards will be whipped into shape through Moto Body, which logs the amount of steps you take in a day, tracking heart rate and the amount of calories burned.
Moto 360 Sport, meanwhile, has a GPS to track your speed, distance and pace, playing music through headphones from your wrist. Moto 360 costs around €249.
