Fossil today announced the addition of four new hybrid smartwatches to its lineup.
The Q Nate, Q Crewmaster, Q Gazer, and Q Tailor are available to pre-order online starting Sept. 14, and formally arrive on Sept. 26. At first glance, the timepieces look like ordinary watches. But hidden inside are the features we've come to expect from modern fitness trackers and smart devices.
That includes activity tracking, sleep monitoring, and custom goal setting, as well as access to multiple time zones and filtered notifications. And with up to six months of life on a single replaceable battery, the Bluetooth-enabled devices can pair with Google Fit, UA Record by Under Armour, UP by Jawbone, and Apple Health.
Compatible with gadgets running Android 4.4 and higher or iPhone 5 and up operating iOS 8.2 or above, the watches can also operate a connected smartphone's camera, control its music, or locate a missing handset.
The devices start at $175; specific pricing and availability will be revealed next month.
These new additions join a growing collection of Fossil Q smartwatches, including the Marshal, Wander, Founder, and Grant, as well as the company's lineup of activity trackers.
