Get analog style with the function of a smartwatch in this Kickstarter campaign

Smartwatches can be useful and cool, but not everyone loves having a tiny screen on their wrist that's hard to swipe through. And unfortunately, even the most stylish analog watch won't keep you connected to your devices. The New York Standard Watch Company, however, is looking to change that with their NYSW Sophisticated Analog Smartwatch that's currently seeking funding on Kickstarter.

This smartwatch has the style and craft of a traditional timepiece, but also features tons of smartwatch capabilities, like tracking your fitness activity directly on the watch face so you can see how many calories you burn while you wear it. The watch can set reminders for certain times of the day, and it even syncs to your phone and can vibrate when you get a new notification on any of your apps. If you happen to be traveling to a different time zone, it'll even automatically sync to the new time so you don't have to worry about adjusting your watch during your trip to Tokyo. Read more...
