Pebble isn’t the only company to be working with smart straps (Pebble Leaves Monochrome Behind With Time Watch). Luxury watch brand Montblanc has now launched its Tie Walker Urban Speed e-Strap series: an OLED display embedded into a watch band, which can show notifications from an Android or iOS smartphone (via Bluetooth). Available in three versions (basic; with second time zone; and with chronograph), the straps will start at $300 when they are launched this year.
Comment
It’s not quite James Bond’s laser watch, but probably as close as we’re going to get any time soon. (TA)
