The Horological Smartwatch: the Bridge between Silicon Valley and the Swiss Watch Industry

In connection with its Silicon Valley Technology Partner Fullpower, the Frederique Constant Horological Smartwatch is a luxury Swiss timepiece with connected functionality. It possesses the precise style of a classical luxury watch with the ability to record activity and sleep. The Swiss luxurious watch brand proudly presented their Horological Smartwatches at this year’s Baselworld jewellery and watch fair.

Powered by MotionX, the Swiss Horological Smartwatches are capable of bi-directional communication with iPhone and Android apps. The Swiss Smartwatch represents the combination of cutting edge innovation with traditional watch craftsmanship. It is the link between modern and classic. There is no digital screen on the Swiss Horological Smartwatch. Instead, the beautiful laser cut hands on the watch dial display information in analog form. The Swiss Horological Smartwatches retain their classic beauty and can deliver the benefits of a smartwatch, without ever having to recharge a battery.

The Frederique Constant Horological Smartwatches are equipped with a stainless steel or rose gold plated case. Models are fastened with either brown or black alligator leather straps or a stainless steel bracelet. The dials are finished with galvanized black or silver backgrounds and applied indexes. Diamond cut delicate hands indicate time and the connected information. Functionalities include time and date, MotionX activity tracking, sleep monitoring, sleep cycle alarms, get-active alerts, adaptive coaching, 2+ years battery life and a MotionX cloud backup and restore. The watch allows users to connect to their computer to store all data about their sleeping and compare it to others.

The Smartwatch is powered by MMT’s MotionX® technology platform, delivering 24/7 activity tracking and sleep monitoring with over two years battery life. The Smartwatches are compatible with Apple and Android smartphones worldwide with the ability to automatically synchronize and connect to the MotionX-365 App on the smartphone. Sensors inside the Horological Smartwatch track both activity and sleep with high accuracy. Patterns are communicated and visually displayed, providing a summary of its user’s daily progress. Activity and sleep information is presented in real-time on the Smartwatch with the use of traditional analog dials. This data will assist users to understand their sleeping patterns and allow them to set appropriate goals. Better sleep and a more active lifestyle are widely recognized as simple, but effective positive behavioural changes. The app allows users to stay on track and motivated to continue with their appropriate program.
