Top 10: the best smartwatches of 2016

We have selected the best smart watches of 2016. The world is developing at an unstoppable speed, and with it wristwatches, which had to adapt quickly in the age of mobile phones and information technology, if they did not want to experience the fate of many animal species that we have exterminated. And that's how smart watches were born. The whole thing was actually cooked up by Apple when it made a strap for the iPod Nano. But then it came down. Today, all the tech giants and many startups offer smartwatches, but it is not yet known whether they will stand the test of time. Watches are returning to wrists, but no longer only as time information and as a fashion accessory. These are wearable computers that make many daily tasks easier. And if classic wristwatches are chosen primarily based on appearance, smart watches are equally attentive to their "innards". We present to you the best smartwatches of 2016.

SkinTrack: When the hand becomes part of the smartwatch screen

Smartwatches have been on the market for quite some time, and while their benefits are great and obvious, their success has not been consistent. One of the big problems with smart watches is definitely their small size. Carnegie Mellon University solved the problem with SkinTrack. Part of the smartwatch screen was transferred to the user's hand. Thus, the user can use his hand as a touchpad - for example, he writes a letter with his finger on the palm of his hand, and it is printed on the screen.

CES 2016: Huawei smartwatch sprinkled with Swarovski crystals

At CES 2016, alongside the Mate 8 smartphone, Huawei unveiled the Swarovski crystal-encrusted Jewel and Elegant smartwatches designed for women. Until now, smartwatches have been more of a male accessory or rather a toy, but that is changing now. The watches complement the collection of Classic, Active and Elite smartwatches launched by Huawei last year.

Swiss Alp: a mechanical wristwatch with a smart watch look

With the prestigious Swiss Alp wristwatch, the H. Moser & Cie brand did exactly the opposite of the current trend among wristwatch providers. Instead of (re)creating a classic wristwatch and embedding a digital heart in it, they did the opposite. The Swiss Alp wristwatch was inspired by modern smart watch designs (so much so that they are likely to be sued by Apple), but it is a purely mechanical wristwatch.

Fossil Q Founder: Fossil with a line of stylish smartwatches

Are smart watches "meteors" for classic wristwatches? Although classic wristwatches will not become fossils so quickly, even traditional watch providers do not want to leave anything to chance or technological evolution and the law of "stronger". Who will win in the end, whether smart or classic watches, or whether they will co-exist, is still hard to say, but the fact is that watch providers who have been with us in the past will have to adapt to modern needs. TAG Heuer has already done this, followed by Movado, and now the Fossil brand has expanded its "vehicle fleet" with a line of smart watches, whose first representative is the Q Founder.

Chronos – when a classic wristwatch becomes a smart watch

The jump from a classic to a smart wristwatch can be painful, which is why many people don't opt for it. Most smart watches are far from reaching the elegance of classic wristwatches. You can already see from Mars that you are carrying a computer. Well, a few examples can at least partly disprove us, but even these examples will not convince the most ardent fans of the classics. But they will be convinced by Chronos, a technological attachment in the form of a button battery that hides inconspicuously under the case and turns a classic wristwatch into a smart watch.

TAG Heuer Connected: The first smart watch with tradition!

Are smartwatches the future or a fad? The balance is leaning towards the first option, as traditional watch providers are also entering the smart watch market. One of the first is the Swiss watch giant TAG Heuer, which together with Google and Intel presented its first TAG Heuer Connected smartwatch. At first glance, this is a mirror image of the TAG Heuer Carrera wristwatch, but in reality it is a powerful computer. And if the CEO of TAG Heuer says that traditional mechanical watches are a thing of the past because they have no added value for younger users, smart watches are here to stay.

Fornasetti and Huawei with a smart watch for lovers of art, design and modern technology

Chinese Huawei, Chinese Vogue and the famous designer Barnaba Fornasetti have prepared a special edition of a smart watch, which is a "sticker" of art, smart technology and design, on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of the Chinese version of the aforementioned magazine. The dial of the watch is decorated with Fornasetti's motif "Tema e Variazioni", countless variations of the face of Lina Cavalieri, while at the same time the watch offers connectivity anywhere, notification of calls, messages and e-mails.

Pebble Time Round: The smartwatch phenomenon with its first round watch

Pebble, which nearly took down Kickstarter half a year ago after setting a new record for the crowdfunding portal by raising $1 million in just 30 minutes, is now presenting its first round watch. Although he seems to have no problem convincing customers, now he is also targeting skeptics (read nostalgics) who swear by classic wristwatches with all his guns. If you squint at the offer, it doesn't take long to realize that there is a circular trend. Nevertheless, the first smartwatches were square. But even such popular smart watches as Pebble had to resort to "grandmother's" advice.

Pinnacle: Nico Gerard with a watch that is both a classic wristwatch and an Apple Watch

The world of luxury watches is awash with tributes to human greed, but American company Nico Gerard has still somehow managed to create a timepiece that stands out. Namely, they made a wristwatch that was combined with the Apple Watch smart watch. It's not a crossover, their idea was to wear both watches at the same time. That's why the Pinnacle has a classic Swiss-made analog wristwatch on the front, and an Apple Watch on the other. Why, you ask? Because five-year-olds never have enough.
