This 'Smart Strap' Claims to Turn Any Watch Into a Health Tracker
There's a good variety of smart watches on the market these days, but almost all of them look like a smart watch. If you're a fashion-forward person, this puts you in a tricky dilemma: You might want to track your vitals and activity, but you want to look good, too. And wearing both a smart watch and a classic watch is a non-starter.
